Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. (5 minutes)

02

Step
7 mins

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the milk and vanilla extract. (7 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Stir in the chopped walnuts, raisins, and finely chopped candied cherries. (5 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or grease lightly. (2 minutes)

05

Step
10 mins

Shape the dough into balls using a level tablespoon. Roll each ball in the crushed cornflakes, ensuring they are well coated. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. (10 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Gently press a candied cherry quarter onto the top of each cookie. (5 minutes)

07

Step
12 mins

Bake for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. (12 minutes)

08

Step
2 mins

Remove the cookies immediately from the baking sheets and transfer them to wire racks to cool completely. (2 minutes)

For best results, use high-quality candied cherries.
If you don't have candied cherries, you can substitute dried cranberries or other dried fruit.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Feel free to experiment with different types of nuts, such as pecans or almonds.
For a festive touch, drizzle the cooled cookies with melted white chocolate.
