Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a reusable silpat.
- Cream together the butter and sugar, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time and mix for another minute.Pro Tip: crack your eggs into a separate bowl and then pour in, this will help avoid any shell pieces in your cookies!
- Pour in the buttermilk and vanilla and mix another minute.
- In a separate bowl sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, clove and nutmeg.
- Add the flour a little at a time to the cookie dough mixture, just until combined.
- Stir/Mix in the candied cherries, dates and chopped pecans. Pro Tip: if you want a more pronounced red and green look, save back 1/2 cup of each color cherries. Then dot the outside of the portioned cookies with the extra pieces.
- Drop the dough onto the parchment lined baking sheet, about a heaping tablespoon each.
- If using the pecan half, place on top of each cookie, pressing down to adhere and spread the cookie a little.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes. They will be done when the very outside edge is just starting to turn golden. They are a very soft cookie so they will seem under done in the center, but will firm up as they cool. Watch the first batch and see how long it takes, then use that time for the remaining batches. If you are baking in batches, place the remaining dough in the refrigerator until needed.
- Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool the rest of the way.
