Cherry Coconut Bars

This recipe was posted last year by DrD. I made them last year and loved them. I gave some to my mom and she and her friends loved them too. She requested the recipe and made them also. I just made them again yesterday. I think I under baked them just a little this time but they were still good. I gave some to my mom and my neighbor and they are gone now! I'll just have to make more...for us! To me, they are similar to pecan tassies but with the taste of cherries, coconut and walnuts instead.
