Taste of Our Home Tuesday: Chewy Good Oatmeal Cookies

We had life group tonight and I made these cookies earlier today to take as a snack.  I left out the macadamia nuts and I substituted Craisins for the dried cherries.  The cookies are very moist and have great flavor!  Enjoy!    
Ingredients
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2-1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1-1/3 cups dried cherries
1 cup white baking chips
1 cup (4 ounces) chopped macadamia nuts

Directions
In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, honey and vanilla. In another bowl, mix the oats, flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Stir in the remaining ingredients.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto greased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on pan for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool. Yield: 3-1/2 dozen.
