• Granulated sugar. I recommend using organic cane sugar or regular white sugar.Light brown sugar. Using dark brown sugar will impart a slightly richer molasses taste. Vanilla extract. vanilla bean paste works in place of extract. All-purpose flour. For a gluten-free version use 1:1 all-purpose gluten-free flour.Fine sea salt. Use fine (not coarse) sea salt. If using iodized table salt, decrease the amount by half. Cinnamon. I love the addition of cinnamon in these cherry cookies, it brings all the flavors together beautifully. Chocolate Chips. choose your favorite – semisweet, dark or milk. Even white chocolate chips taste great. Cherries. use fresh or dried cherries.
