I’m not big on cookies, but twice now I’ve run across two cookies that were
just too decadent beyond words. The pumpkin cookies were the first. These
fruit cookies are just outstanding. This recipe makes a double batch.

Chop all fruit together well (coarse chop). Sift dry ingredients. Cream
sugar and butter. Add beaten eggs, then dry ingredients and whiskey and
milk. Drop by spoonfuls on a greased cookie sheet. Bake in a 250F oven
about 20 minutes.
