The first time I made these cookies, they took me over 3 hours to assemble, but they were well worth the effort! And the next time I made them, I got a good system going and it took far less time. Everyone enjoyed them and they look very festive. A great holiday cookie.

I have made these cookies for a couple of years. ( just have never reviewed them till now) These are easy to make, and always draw attention on a cookie platter.

I love this recipe. I thought it went really well with the cherry. I had no strawberry or rasberry jam so I used lemon jam and it tasted wonderful. Its the best cookies i've ever made.

Made these using a tiny scalloped canape cutter and filled them with Nutella instead of jam. It made perfect bitesize cookies that looked extremely dainty and pretty on the cookie trays. Not only did they look wonderful, they are melt in your mouth good!

I tried this cookie for Christmas and loved it. I used red decorating sugar instead of the cherries and it ¨melted¨ into the icing and looked really pretty. I will make these again, and not just at Christmas. Yum!

Fantastico! Or, I guess in the heritage of the cookie, I enjoyed these a 'wee' too much. Please note, if you freeze the cookies, the frosting separates and they need to be re-coated. Time consuming, but very tasty. I will never buy these again. Thank you!

WoW!!!!! Simple to make! Esthetically pleasing!! Very delicious!!! Green and red candied cherries during Christmas for the theme. p.s. I know everyone is saying to use seedless jam, I only had jam with seeds on hand and found it turned out great.

I've always loved these cookies but had never made them before - much easier than they look. I used a bit more jam and almond extract than called for and made the cookies smaller. This is definately a cookie that impresses people; they are so pretty. One other tip: use seedless jam.
