These cookies are very good for a treat if you want to watch your weight. So, here it is. The original version used 2 tsp. of ginger and 2 tsp. of nutmeg. I don't like strong spices, so I cut those two items to one tsp. each. I also cut the dried cherries to one cup, down from two, because I wanted more cookie and less fruit. The fruit is very good and adds moisture though, so leaving it at 2 cups would be fine.
