    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup sugar
    1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
    1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    3 eggs
    3 cups all-purpose flour
    3 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
    3/4 cup candied cherries, chopped
    1/2 cup almonds, chopped

    GLAZE
    2 teaspoons skim milk
    1 tablespoon sugar
    1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

    Heat over to 350F. Spray 1 large or 2 small cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray.

    In large bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar, brown sugar and margarine; beat until well blended. Add vanilla and eggs; beat well. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off. Stir in flour, baking powder and 1/2 tsp nutmeg; mix well. Stir in cherries and almonds.

    With spray coated hands, shape dough into 3 rolls, about 7 inches long.

    Place rolls at least 3 inches apart on sprayed cookie sheet; flatten each to form 3/4 inch thick rectangle, about 3 inches wide and 7 inches long.

    Brush rectangles with milk. In small bowl, combine 1 tbsp sugar and 1/2 tsp nutmeg. Sprinkle over tops.

    Bake at 350F for 20-28 min. or until rectangles are light golden brown and centers are firm to the touch. Place rolls on wire racks; cool 5 minutes.

    Wipe cookie sheet clean. With serrated knife, cut each rectangle into 1/2 inch slices; place, cut side up, on cookie sheet.

    Bake at 350F for 6-8 minutes or until top surface is slightly dry. Turn cookies over; bake an additional 6-8 min or until top surface is slightly dry. Remove cookies from cookie sheets; cool completely on wire racks. Store tightly covered.
