* "Stack 6 cookies, with a paper doily between each, on top of each other. Wrap with colored plastic wrap and tie top with ribbon." In a small bowl, mix flour, salt, and baking soda set aside.

In a large mixer bowl at medium speed, beat sugar, brown sugar, shortening, and butter until well blended. Add eggs, milk, vanilla, and almond extract and beat until well blended. At low speed, beat in flour mixture until well blended. Beat in oats, chips, cherries, and almonds. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
