    Summer Fun

    (First written in 2017)

    During the dog days of summer we pack ourselves up and head to the canyon to get Chelsea, our german shorthair pointer into the water. Or head to the mountains to go hiking to cool her off. It's a great way to keep her cool. She will also opt for a night time car ride with the windows down and her ears and tongue flapping.

    But Wait, What About Substitutions?

    There are some simple substitutions that you can use to make these cookies adapt to your dietary needs: *Contains affiliate links

    • Flour: You can use gluten free flour. Cup 4 Cup seems to work the best if you are able to have it.
    See Cup 4 Cup Ingredients Here
    • Sugar: Granulated sugar should be used in this recipe but you can substitute other sugars if you would like! I will substitute this low calorie sugar at times.
    See Smart Sugar Ingredients Here
    • Butter: You are welcome to use dairy free butter
    • Eggs: Feel free to use egg replacer if you would like.
    • Cherry bits: I used dried cherry bits but have used fresh cut cherries. I think the texture of the cookie is a little better with the dried cherries.
    • White Chocolate Chips: I've used dairy free white chocolate chips and even sugar free white chocolate chips before!

    **Please note that if you use substitutions sometimes the taste and/or texture may change.
