Directions
Stir first four ingredients; set aside.
In a large bowl with mixer at medium speed, beat margarine and peanut butter until smooth.
Beat in sugars until blended, then eggs and vanilla.
Add flour mixture; beat until well blended.
If necessary chill dough.
Shape into 1inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
Flatten slightly and decorate with candied cherries if needed, or flatten with fork dipped in coloured sugars if desired.
Bake in 350℉ (180℃) oven 12 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Remove from cookie sheets and cool on a rack.
