home made chocolate chip or chunk , peanut butter , white chocolate with any nuts

store bought , any coconut cream, lemon cream

I'm a cookie monster, unfortunately. I love almost any type of homemade cookie. As far as store bought:

Pepper Ridge Farms Mint Brussels

I never bit a cookie I did not like but my favorites are the homemade melt in your mouth cake like frosted sugar cookies a friend makes; cowboy cookies, blond brownie sheet cookies and green, almond, Christmas tree shaped butter cookies.

A local bakery also makes a peanut butter cookie frosted with chocolate that tastes like hot fudge.

While in Scotland I ate some shortbread covered with carmel and chocolate that still lingers in my mind when I drink a cup of strong black tea.

I eat cookies only to be polite. Alice Toklas's Nameless Cookies are as simple as can be and I sometimes make them when there's company. When it comes to sweets, I turn into a picky eater. There just aren't many that interest me.

Some favorite cookies:

No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oat Cookies (DH says that they were called "Preacher cookies" in his neck of the woods, I never knew a name for them):
No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oat Cookies

Polvorones (Mexican Wedding Cookies)

Polvorones

I also like coconut macaroons and good ol' chocolate chip.

And there are these really rich cookies...I believe they're Italian....the dough is sweet and flaky and has whipping cream as an ingredient. Someone I worked with would make them and put a layer of this really decadent frosting between TWO cookies. The cookie part was dusted with powdered sugar, too, and had tons of butter in the recipe. They just sorta melted in your mouth. Wonderful, but evil. Wish I could remember what they're called! I'm about ready to run to the grocery store after thinking about all these.

• snicker-doodles
• chocolate chip
• oatmeal raisin
• peanut-butter

Must be homemade.

Oh yea, Snickerdoodles- yum!

Also Raspberry or Strawberry 'thumbprint' cookies.

Oh my, I love cookies. I wish I were more inclined to be like StAG!

So many good ones...among them:

Walkers shortbread cookies- they should be...they're half butter!

Mint Milanos-ummm!

Coconut macaroons-with or without the chocolate, either way

and last but not least, my DH makes a wonderful peanutbutter with white chocolate chip & macadamia nut cookie- to die for! Good also with milk chocolate chips:-)

Laduree macaroons (vanilla, pistachio, caramel and raspberry flavors) and Walker's shortbread.

I don't do a lot of sweets these days, but my favorite cookies to make are soft coconut with chunks of bitter chocolate.

In my day I've been partial to:

Molasses (no icing, please)
Gingersnaps
Anything with coconut
Chocolate oatmeal drops (I guess those are really candy, but we considered them cookies at our house)

Store bought faves:

Vanilla cremes
Keebler Fudge Cremes
Danish Wedding Cookies (I'm amazed these haven't been mentioned. They are similar to the Mexican Wedding cookies, minus the cinnamon, with tiny chocolate chips in the dough. We ate them constantly when we were kids.)
Pepperidge Farm Orange Milano

OMG! I forgot the coconut thing......ANYTHING coconut!

BG, I love molasses and gingersnap cookies too. Also partial to pfeffernussen, poppyseed hamantashen and apricot or chocolate rugelach.

My signature line on another forum used to be "If there were no such thing as a cookie, I'd be thin." Don't make me choose.

Oh, on the contrary, Rosie. The cookie party looks like so much fun! Look at the spirit of enthusiasm on this thread. I feel like the orphan with the runny nosed pressed against the window, watching all the lucky children happy with their cookies.

I'm a total cookie whore. Any cookie, any time. No such thing as a bad cookie.

Yup, FultTilt

I'm not a cookie eater, but if my mother makes her 'German cookies' with the potash and bakers ammonia, I will eat them until I am sick, which doesn't really take all that much, since I'm not EVEN supposed to go near sugar.
My favorite two:
Pffefferneusse
und
Lebkuchen

I like the store-bought versions, too, but they lack the effervescense of my mother's.
Oh, they are...simply...heavenly.

Those italian cookies I mentioned? I tried them once- they were wonderful...but I still cannot remember the name. I remember you had to prick the cookies with a fork and they puffed up a bit, too.

Does anyone remember those boxed LEMON COOLERS made by Sunshine, in the 1960's and 70's? I used to love those things. Round shortbread wafers dusted with powdered sugar and filled with little lemon bits that were VERY sour!

Like Catie Ribbons, my doc has told me to avoid sugar as well. Bummer, 'cause that is my weakness.

Click to view attachmentClick to view attachmentOh, I rememger those Lemon Coolers . . . weren't there Lime Coolers, as well?? I thought so . . . they were very, very tart and zingy!!

My favorite cookie now, is a Cappuccino Spice Cookie. I've posted the recipe here, before. It's really an adult cookie . . . with lots of coffee flavor, and liqueur, as well.

Black and Whites. A local deli near me makes them - half chocolate icing & half vanilla.

I love lemony cookies. And just a plain sugar cookie on a hot day with fresh (real)lemonaid. And they're better eaten on a veranda sitting in wicker rockers.

Coconut! Seven layer cookies (or is it five layer?) have lots of it.

Can you tell I love cookies? I have many happy cookie memories.



Cookies don't make you feel as guilty as a big slice of cake. Like finger sandwiches, you can eat a dozen and it doesn't seem like you're making a pig of yourself.

Yes! I swear I could still find them at some store up until a year ago. I've been looking for them for months.

My favorite are homemade Chocolate-chip/oatmeal/walnut cookies. I'm always hunting the 'net for more cookie recipes.

Store bought: Nutter Butters, and Nilla Wafers.

StAG- Aww, come in and join the party, I'll give you some assorted cheeses and crackers! :P

I saw those Lemon Coolers not too long ago, too. I wonder if The Vermont Country Store carries them?

Aww. How kind! Cheese and crackers is almost cookies, isn't it? And I do like those.

Actually, they used to make a cookie called a Russian Tea Cake at the bakery in the middle of Palo Alto and I would walk two miles to get one. I remember it was a delicious treat.

Oh I'm much more tempted by cheese and crackers!! a little wine....a little cheese and crackers.....

Rasputin, here's link to a recipe for Lemon Coolers: http://recipes.calputer.com/sunshine-lemon...ers-recipe.html

I am so happy to read all about everyone's favorite cookies.Pepperidge Farms has some new ones out I am going to try with strawberries.My breakfast some mornings is a cup of tea and a raspberry sandwich cookie which is a nice way to start my morning....2 or 3 cookies is heavenly for me...

I love those PIM ones with either orange or raspberry filling and dark chocolate on top.

Pepperidge Farm Bordeaux cookies. They don't look like much, but they leave this taste in your mouth that says "More cooookie..."

I figured it out. The cookies are not Italian, they are Swedish and here is a recipe just like I made for Christmas one year. I colored the filling red and green. You can only eat about one of these...they are just so rich and sweet.
Swedish Cream Wafers: http://www.aviewofamerica.com/Recipes/Cook...creamwafers.htm

I love most cookies. I usually won't turn them down...but I don't care for raisins and alot of nuts in the cookies. My favorites are these that Panera bread make that are basically a chocolate cookie with white chocolate chips and other things...I'm not sure what. Man, are they tasty. I like snickerdoodles too, and molasses cookies...any ARCHWAY cookies...oh my lips are SMACKIN' thinking about cookies.

Oh I forgot...does anyone else like those Keebler Danish Wedding Cookies that come in the pink box? Once I at a whole box of those in ONE day! I am not kidding. What a heifer, huh? ;-P

I didn't read through this, so if I missed it, wrong. I like chocolate chip cookie mix -- mix, not cooked -- with milk. NOT baked. RAW. Eww.

--L

Viennese crescents, from the original New York Times cookbook. Craig Claiborne described the recipe as "the greatest cookie recipe ever devised" (actually, he was quoting someone else who said that, but nevertheless) -- and you don't argue with Craig!

Butter, sugar, ground walnuts and flour, rolled in vanilla-scented confectioners' sugar -- that's it. Simple and perfect.

Trader Joe's triple ginger ginger snaps. They have chunks of candied ginger in the cookie. Ginger heaven!

I used to make the Madeleines from this cookbook. I don't have the patience anymore.

ANZAC biscuits
