Ingredients

1 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar (powdered and sifted)
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour (sifted)
1/4 teaspoon Salt
3/4 cup chopped pecans
Candied cherries, wiped dry

Directions:

Cream butter and sugar in a large bowl and mix in vanilla. Sift flour and salt together and add to the sugar mixture. Gently fold in the chopped pecans. Shape mixture into golf ball sized balls around a candied cherry. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for approximately 15 minutes at 350F or until baked through and slightly golden.

While cookies are baking place a little extra powdered sugar in a bowl. Once the cookies are done baking roll through the sugar and set aside to cool.
