1 ml (1/4 tsp) salt

Directions:
In a bowl, combine flour and salt.

In another bowl, cream butter with icing sugar with electric mixer. Add the egg and whisk until the mixture is homogeneous. With a wooden spoon or low speed, incorporate the flour mixture until the dough is homogeneous. Add the pecans and cherries. Separate the dough in half.

On a work surface, spread a sheet of plastic wrap. Form a dough into a 20 cm (8 in) long cylinder. Close the film and form a long square tube. Repeat with the second dough. Freeze on a flat surface for 4 hours or until cooked.

Place the grill at the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 ° F Line sheets with parchment paper.

On a worktop, unpack the roll. Cut dough into 1/4 inch (5 mm) slices. Spread cookies over the baking sheets.

Bake 1 plate at a time, 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely on the plate.

The cookie dough can be kept for about 3 months in the freezer. For optimum preservation, place rolls wrapped in plastic wrap in a sealed bag.
