Sprinkle each with sugar to taste, then roll in walnuts to coat evenly. Space out cookies evenly on a lined baking sheet and bake for approx. 8 minutes, or until done. Enjoy! Tip for creating a decadent display: To showcase a variety of different looks using one basic recipe we made just a few tweaks to create several different cookies. In one method, we rolled the dough into an even log, rolled it in chopped walnuts and sliced into rounds. Be sure to refrigerate before slicing with this method! Another simple method we love is to incorporate the walnuts right into the dough and roll the balls just in the flavored sugar, giving the cookies an even balance of cherries and nuts.
