Baking with ghee

I've not tried it before. Do any adjustments need to be made?

Thanks!

Is it just because it's what you have in the house? The main utility of ghee is that it doesn't burn at high heat on the stovetop - not an issue while baking.

Butter solids are delicious in baked goods, why would you exclude them?

Can't leave the house for a few more days and want to make cookies or a coffee cake or something sweet.

Maybe add a little extra vanilla or something to amp up the flavor?
