1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 tbsp milk
2 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup maraschino cherries, diced but 1 tsp juice from the jar
1 cup coconut
1. Beat the butter and sugar together until fluffy. Add vanilla and milk and beat until combined.
2. Add flour, mixing just until incorporated. By hand or with the mixer, work the cherries and tsp of juice into the dough.
3. Separate dough in half and form each half into a 8 or 9 inch log. Roll each half in coconut to cover. Wrap in freezer paper or plastic wrap and freeze about 30 minutes, until firm.
