fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat thoroughly. Beat in flour. Stir in oats,
cherries or raisins, and orange peel. Generously fill a 1/3 cup dry measure
with dough and drop onto a greased cookie sheet. Press into a 4 inch
circle. Repeat with remaining dough, placing cookies 3 inches apart on
greased cookie sheets. Bake in a 375 oven for 8 to 10 minutes or till edges
are golden. Let stand for 1 minute. Transfer cookies to wire rack to cool.

: These cookies taste best when golden around the edges and moist and chewy
in the center. To avoid overbaking, remove cookies from the oven when the
edges are golden and the centers still look slightly underdone
