I think I usually prefer soft vs hard.

I love oatmeal cookies, adding raisins is good.

I like snickerdoodles.

I like molasses cookies.

Oreos are good too!

Chrissy

I also prefer soft. White macadamia nuts are my favorite. I also like chocolate chunk, oatmeal (with or without raisins), peanut butter, snickerdoodle, egg nog, etc...

I LIKE COOKIES!

@ChrissyRyan
Dear Chrissy.... and others

I won't burden you once again with posting my pictures of the cookies that I like to bake and like to eat....

Chocolate Chip
     Molasses Cookies
          Snickerdoodles
Shortbread Sugar Cookies, cutouts with colorful sprinkles (favorite ;) of @Jessica)

and quite a few more choices................

Hugs,
Danielle

Nothing against raisins but every time I see raisin cookies can only think they could have been chocolate chip cookies. I mean you bothered to make cookies and you thought it would be better to put raisins in them as opposed to chocolate chips?

We're fooling ourselves thinking about the healthy choice we just made.  ;D

Warm freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.

Sugar cookies are good too!

Sometimes I like lemon cookies.  Sort of like Oreos, but with lemon flavored creamy filling.

Then there are the ice cream sandwiches!  Not thought of as a sandwich or even a cookie, but usually as an ice cream confection.  But the outside parts I guess are cookies of sorts.  I would not eat them without the ice cream middle though.  Some are good, others are not so good!

I may try one of Michelle's cookie recipes.  Thank you.

Chrissy

Anything that has the word cookie.   :)


Oatmeal raisin, molasses, chocolate chip, kitchen sink, no bake chocolate oatmeal.

@Michelle_P
Dear Michelle:
I made a double batch of your "Michelle's Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies"
                They were absolutely "DELICIOUS"

Don't get mad at me :) but I added 50% more chocolate chips :)

I will definitively be making them again.

Thank you for sharing your recipe with us.
Hugs and more Hugs,

More chocolate chips is always good.

Try adding 1/2 cup of cocoa powder!  Chocolate chocolate chip cookies!

Or, toss in a cup of crushed pecans!

I've also made the oatmeal cookies with white chocolate and toffee chips added in, and of course pecans are welcome there.

Are you going to share them with your girlfriends?

@Wendi
Dear Wendi:
YES, I share or give away the majority of what I bake and cook, otherwise I would have to buy several sizes bigger clothing...  and I would lose my girlish curves and figure.

I put half of them in my freezer for  later use, and I will give a small baggy full to each of my friends in my gym-gals group this week and I will take some to my office to share with others.

Thanks for your thoughts,
Hugs,
Danielle

Danielle,


Do you regularly freeze the cookies or the cookie dough?  Or both? 


Hugs,

Chrissy

My recipes produce enough dough for 60-80 cookies (using a 50 mL cookie dough scoop), so I often make up a batch of dough, form it in balls, and freeze them in little 'cookie pucks', ready to bake.

When company comes over, I can heat up the oven, grab a few cookie pucks per guest, and have fresh baked cookies for company.  It also makes the condo smell wonderful!

@ChrissyRyan
Dear Chrissy:
I am usually eager to get the oven hot and bake the cookies so that I can enjoy a few of them still warm out of the oven....   mmm, mmm, good.

I sometimes freeze cookie dough and also bread/pastry/pizza dough... makes it easy to start baking when I feel the urge... which is all the time!!!!

HUGS,
Danielle

I am craving a soft oatmeal raisin cookie.

Maybe I will bake a batch this weekend.

Chrissy

I like snickerdoodles.

I like molasses cookies.

Oreos are really good too!


Chrissy

Kolaczki, yes I am of Polish descent and this Christmas season I learned to make them.

Sometimes I like sugar cookies.  However I am sure most cookies have sugar!

Thin mints cookies and the fudge mint Grasshopper cookies are tasty.  I cannot eat too many of them before tiring of them though.

Lemon cookies can be good too.

I do prefer having a glass of milk too when eating more than one cookie.

Chrissy

I want a cookie!

A warm, moist oatmeal cookie will do!
