Receta Cherry Winks ~ Classic Cookies

This is the original recipe for a cookie that won the 2nd Pillsbury Bake Off. They contain dates, pecans, maraschino cherries, cornflakes and a kiss of vanilla extract. I have followed the original recipe but you G-F members will see my modifications for you in the Ingredints below.

I've adapted the recipe for gluten intolerant folks - you'll love it! I get requests for these and so will you.

There will be grammas and grampas out there who remember a mom, grandmother, or aunt who made these tasty, crunchy, chewy cookies for an after school treat back in the 1950s.

This will be a very pleasant forced march down memory lane for most folks. It's a huge hit with young and old.

    Sweets Queen - Great to hear from you! Thanks. I wasn't aware you are a G-F baker. I prefer this recipe with all purpose flour and regular corn flakes, finding G-F can run to the 'dry' side for my taste, but my G-F guinea pigs & diners really like them, so that is just peachy with me. Thanks for the comment and I hope you will find them good enough to review. Very best wishes to a favorite Chef - Amos
