HONEY MACAROONIES

1-1/2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats
1/2 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup flour
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine
2 T honey
red or green candied cherries

In large mixing bowl combine rolled oats, coconut, walnuts and flour.  In heavy saucepan combine brown sugar, butter or margarine, and honey.  Bring to boiling.  Pour over dry ingredients.  Blend well.  For each cookie press one level tablespoon mixture into greased 1-3/4" muffin pan (For flatter, crisper cookie place dough in 2" muffin pan.)  Top with a candied cherry.  Bake in 350 oven for 15 to 20 minutes or till well browned.  Cool in pans for ten minutes.  Remove from pans and cool completely.  makes 3 dozen cookies.

I used some maraschino cherries for the decoration on top, and I only used 12 muffin molds for mixture.  Don't uses muffin pan liners.  They do pop right out after resting in pan for ten minutes.  Just run a knife around the edges. They're very cute, but a little dry.  Nonetheless, the flavor was all right, and people were eating them.  One-time thing...
