Hi Dawn! I want to make these cookies for a vegan friend and have everything on hand except the almond meal and oat flour. My friend is not gluten free, so could I just substitute 1 cup of whole wheat flour? Thanks!

I made this cookies for the Superbowl party and they were a hit. Everyone loved them and couldn’t believe they tasted that great, even my picky child ate them up. Thank you, Dawn!

I’d like to make this, but every time I go to print a recipe …it’s partially covered with lines or overprinted words etc?
This happens often so I save recipes to email but then forget about them.

Hey Debbie! Thanks for the heads up about this! I’m talking to my web manager to fix this & make recipe print cleaner. For now, I did change the Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie image & it’s printing better! xx

Ok! All the recipe printing is fixed! Thanks again for the heads up! xx DJB
Debbie Gertner says
Unfortunately the printing problem remains the same. Once I select print button from your page, all the lines and overwriting of words appear on the recipe.

Oh hey! I just tested it & it’s working. You may have to clear your cookies/cache to see the updates. I can email you a PDF so you can see what they now look like, thanks to you! xx
