I did think that this recipe was very good. I made my own sugar cookie dough. I then rough chopped the pistachios and the cherries and the log sliced just fine for me. I think the only change I would make is that instead of rolling the nuts and cherries inside the dough, I would just press them in from on top of each cookie slice. That way they can not only be seen but tasted better as well. I also drizzled white chocolate and semi sweet chocolate on the top which made them delicious! I will certainly use this recipe again with maybe a few twists ;
