Sara's Santa's Whiskers

Editor's note:This recipe appears as part of our editors'Christmas Cookie Swap, 10 beloved holiday recipes from the editors of Epicurious andGourmet Live. This is a classic old-school Christmas recipe from my grandmother, Ethel Hughes Johnston, which uses candied fruit and coconut. If you can't find green candied cherries, you can get by with just red ones. They'll still look festive.
