White Chocolate Cherry Cookies

PS+Cherry+Cookies+034
Do you have days where you have EVERY INTENTION of eating healthy and exercising? 
You know, you wake up in the morning and you tell yourself, today is the day! You tell yourself, I’m going to eat a healthy breakfast, have a salad for lunch, enjoy a reasonable dinner, and I’m going to be  satisfied! I’m going to work out and enjoy it!
However, somewhere along way, some cookies popped up on the counter and they somehow ended up in your mouth. You think, it was just one cookies, I can get right back on track! It’s okay because I worked out today. I deserve it.
But then another cookie goes in your mouth and you get frustrated and tell yourself very sternly that you are NOT going to put another cookie into your belly. And for the next hour you don’t.
But then the kid wants a treat and those darn cookies are calling to you like sirens waiting to be consumed because they love you and you love them! 
After that, you figure, you’ve blown it for the day, so you may as well have, like, ten cookies for dinner and some ice cream for dessert. 
Yeah, that was me. 
Sigh….
Diets are hard. It’s a good thing I can start again tomorrow. And really mean it! 
Because these cookies are no longer in my house! They were mailed to California to a Facebook fan who correctly guessed the right main ingredients.

Then I made a Cherry Marshmallow filling! You know… because they needed just a few more calories added to them!
I took a LARGE handful of mini marshmallows and microwaved them for 10 seconds then added 6 to 8 chopped up Maraschino Cherries with a touch of juice and stirred them up.
They made for some AWESOME sandwiches!

      These are extraordinary! I love that the filling is so simple! And yes, I have those days everyday. For me, I just forget to eat, then while I'm making I find myself shoveling frosting (to test it of course) and before you know, my lunch is simply dessert. While good to eat, not the most healthiest. I'm sure I'll do it all again, today!
