These may be frosted with an icing made from 2 cups powdered sugar, a slightly beaten egg white and 2 tablespoons maraschino cherry juice or water. You can use candied cherries in these cookies instead of the maraschinos, if you prefer.

I'm not a big fan of walnuts, but I loved these delights! The cherries and frosting were the perfect balance to the walnuts. I would definitely make these again.

I followed the recipe but my delights didn't turn out as good as I expected. They were a bit dry and the frosting was too sweet.

These delights were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more milk or butter next time.
