Cherry Slice

Cherry slice cookies...v. similar to orange slice cookies, except I followed the recipe on these and used shortening and added oatmeal...I still couldn't bring myself to ruin any kinda of cookie with coconut. They flattened out a lot more than our previous adventure into slice gummy cookies, but they were pretty tasty and much chewier than the orange too.



Cutting up the little slices was a pain in the rear. I decided to dust them in sugar this time after snipping them to pieces and that seemed to work much better as far as the stirring them into the dough went. I got so bored cutting up the little slices that I abandoned the cookie making until the next day. That is how boring it was and how much the scissors made my hand hurt.
