Stir almonds, cherries, candied peel, and flour into cream mixture with a wooden spoon until evenly combined. Scrape mixture into a bowl (it will cool more quickly) and allow to cool to room temperature. Stir occasionally to release heat; mixture will thicken. Drop by generously rounded teaspoon 4 inches apart on cookie sheets. The rounder your "drops," the rounder, and more attractive, your baked cookies will be. Bake until an even golden brown (absolutely remember to shift pans front to back halfway through), about 12 minutes.

Feel free to scoop and drop batter any way you like, but actually measure out the first cookie so that you will then know how to measure out the rest by eye.
