2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup chopped dates
1/3 cup chopped Maraschino cherries
2 1/2 cups crushed corn flakes

Sift dry ingredients together. Combine shortening and sugar and cream well. Add 
eggs, vanilla and milk. Blend in dry ingredients and mix well. Add nuts, dates
