Here is my Mom's Coogan recipe. Not sure if it will help you or not.

Sift together 2 cups flour, 2 tsp. baking powder, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 tsp. salt. Cut in 1/4 lb. margarine. Add 2 beaten eggs, 1/2 cup milk. Stir until mixed; spread on greased cookie sheet. Spread with drained crushed pineapples.

Mix 1/2 cup sugar, 1 tsp. cinnamon and sprinkle on top. Add chopped nuts and cherries. Sprinkle with pineapple juice on top. Dot with butter.

Bake 350 degrees F for 25 minutes. She has a note on it for cookie sheet size make 1 1/2 recipe.

I know the one you are looking for wasn't with pineapple and cherries but it can probably be adapted.
