Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease cookie sheets.

In a large bowl, beat together the flour, sugar, butter, salt, baking soda, baking powder, almond extract, and eggs at low speed and beat until well blended, occasionally scraping the bowl with a rubber spatula.

With a spoon, stir into the cookie dough, the walnuts and candied red and green cherries. Drop the dough by heaping teaspoons, 1" apart, onto the prepared cookie sheets.

Bake the cookies at least 12 minutes or until golden.

Carefully remove the cookies to a rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining dough and candied cherries.

Store cookies in a tightly covered container.
