   Our most recent request, from Sue V.  asked:   
      
   "Hi Phil, I'm looking   
   for a recipe for a cookie that my mother used to make.  They were cookies that   
   were in the shape of a ball, and she would fill them with different things   
   like raspberry or chocolate and then they were rolled in powdered sugar.  Does   
   that sound familiar to anyone?  Thanks, Sue V."   
      
   This sounds very similar to Betty Crocker recipe for Bon Bon cookies.  Used   
   several different fillings and were frosted. Certainly can roll in powder   
   sugar instead of frosting.  Must be done while hot from the oven.  Allow to   
   cool and roll in powder sugar a second time.   
      
   Ingredients   
   1/2 cup butter, softened   
   3/4 cup confectioners' sugar   
   2 tablespoons milk   
   1 teaspoon vanilla extract   
   1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour   
   1/8 teaspoon salt   
   24 maraschino cherries   
      
   GLAZE:   
   1 cup confectioners' sugar   
   1 tablespoon butter, melted   
   2 tablespoons maraschino cherry juice Additional confectioners' sugar   
      
   In a large bowl, cream   
   butter and sugar until light and fluffy.  Add milk and vanilla.  Combine the   
   flour and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture.  Divide dough into 24   
   portions; shape each portion around a cherry, forming a ball.  Place on   
   ungreased baking sheets.  Bake at 350+# for 18-20 minutes or until lightly   
   browned.  Remove to wire racks to cool.  For glaze, combine the sugar, butter   
   and cherry juice until smooth. Drizzle over cookies.  Dust with confectioners'   
   sugar.   
    Yield: 2 dozen.
