¾ cup butter or margarine
¾ cup sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup flaked coconut
¾ cup raisins
¼ cup chopped candied cherries

Preheat oven to 350°F.  Spray large baking sheets with non-stick vegetable spray.

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.  Beat in egg, lemon rind, and vanilla.  Gradually beat in flour until blended.  Stir in coconut, raisins, and cherries.  Drop by teaspoonfuls, 2-inches apart, onto prepared baking sheets.
