Millie my neighbor used to make these for us all the time. I loved the rich buttery taste and the cherry and almond flavor. Cooking time does not include chilling time.

These cookies are way too sweet. I had to cut the sugar in half to make them palatable.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and hard. I'm going to try again soon.

These cookies are a bit too crumbly for my taste, but they still have a good flavor.

I'm not a big fan of cardamom, but I actually really liked these cookies. The flavor is subtle and not overpowering.
