1. Preheat oven to 300ºF.
2. In a very large bowl, combine pecans, candied cherries and white (golden)
raisins.
3. Dredge mixture in the 1/2 cup of flour.
4. Set this aside.
5. Cream brown sugar
with butter.
6. Beat in the eggs.
7. Set that aside.
8. Combine flour, baking soda and spices.
9. Now add the flour mixture into the brown sugar mixture, while adding the wine. You know, like half of the flour,
half the wine, repeat.
10. Now pour that mixture (which is smelling really good by then!) into your big bowl of pecans,
etc., and stir in all together well.
11. Spoon by teaspoonsful onto your baking sheet (these don't spread, so you
can put the cookies fairly close together).
12. Bake for 15 minutes.
This recipe makes lots, like over 120 cookies.
