In a large bowl, cream butter. Beat in honey; gradually stir in flour, salt and vanilla extract. Mix in nuts and dried cherries. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate 1 hour.Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Place onto ungreased cookie sheets 2 inches apart. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until a dark golden brown. Remove from oven and cool slightly on wire racks. While cookies are baking place the powdered sugar in a shallow dish.
While still warm, roll cookies in powdered sugar. When cookies have cooled completely, roll them again in the confectioners sugar to give them a nice even coating of sugar. Store in an airtight container.
Yields 3 dozen cookies.
