Fluffy Sugar Cookies in Cookie Recipes,These fluffy sugar cookies are topped with a vanilla frosting and sprinkle just like the Lofthouse brand! Super easy to make at home. If you are making larger cookies, increase the baking time. For small cookies, I really only needed 3 minutes for my cookies – the ones that I baked longer than 3 minutes turned out very dry. Personally, I don’t care for these cookies plain. The frosting really makes them stand out!

Frosted Holiday Sugar Cookies in Cookie Recipes,Whether you're making Santas or dreidls, shamrocks or bunnies, this foolproof cookie and royal icing recipe is the only one you need. Don't skip chilling the dough after rolling it out. It really helps the cookies keep their shape while baking. And if you'd like to frost the cookies very generously, consider doubling the icing amounts below.

Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookies in Cookie Recipes,Combine the pleasure of a warm-from-the-oven cookie with the butterscotch goodness of soft cookie dough and you have a deep-dish chocolate chip cookie. When I serve them at parties, I like to make the dessert completely over-the-top by baking the dough in a big baking dish, piling some ice cream in the middle, and passing out spoons for communal pigging out. It usually gets really quiet from the moment I put it down on the table until the last bits of melted chocolate are scraped from the edge of the pan.
Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookies
Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies in Cookie Recipes,These perfect chocolate chip cookies are so easy and so addicting. When you first take them out of the oven, they will look paler than a normal golden-brown cookie but that’s normal. They start to look more even as they cool. These cookies should stay really thick and chewy even a day or two later. It’s important to consider your altitude, humidity, oven tendencies, etc. when baking these.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownies in Cookie Recipes,It's playtime. Have a chocolate chip cookie brownie filled weekend! These easy chocolate chip cookie brownies have delicious chocolate chip cookie dough baked into the top layer of decadent, fudgy brownies. Beware of taking these out too early because the cookies look brown – usually, when you do that, the brownies are still underdone and they sink down in the middle.

Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies in Cookie Recipes,Peanut butter and chocolate is one of our favorite dessert combos. You can’t go wrong with it! These Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies are a spin-off on my Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies. This time I used brown sugar that made the cookies ultra soft and chewy. Dipping them in melted semi-sweet chocolate is the perfect finishing touch. That and the chopped peanuts that add a nice crunch.

Best Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies in Cookie Recipes,I'm sure that you've seen and probably even made this really easy pumpkin cookie recipe; it's been floating around the internet for years. I wanted to share it with you today, not because it's new, but because it's awesome. And with my tips and tricks, it's even better. What's my secret?! An EGG! The addition of one egg makes all the difference. That and not under-baking the cookies. Those two things are the secrets to these simple cookies. The egg acts as a leavening agent and helps to make the cookies less gummy. Cooking them a full 12 minutes also helps them to not be gummy and sticky either. Nothing too new or exciting but a few little things can make a big difference when it comes to a recipe with a super short ingredient list.

They’re the trademark of any Christmas cookie tray.
Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies
Half-batch Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies in Cookie Recipes,For these ultra-thick cookies, we melt the butter HALF WAY or less. So literally I heat the stick of butter until roughly half of it is melted. This gives me the most success with a cookie that is both soft and structured. And guess where I melt my butter? Well, I told you already. In the preheating oven. It goes slowly and it keeps most of the stick firm while just gently melting off the outer layer, unlike melting in the microwave where the whole thing gets kinda soggy. Try to melt half or less – my goal is usually about one third and it usually takes just 3-5 minutes. Set a timer, please! Any more than that will start to make the cookies flat. These small-batch chocolate chip cookies are perfect for when you’re craving a cookie, but don’t want to make a whole batch.
