My choice is boring, but I like shortbread and Toll House Cookies (choc chips and walnuts). Gotta wash them down with some milk.

Ya'll made me think about a cookie recipe from my childhood that my mother used to make. Mom has passed and I never got the recipe from her BUT I just searched online and FOUND IT!!! They are called Italian Meatball Cookies because of the way they look. They are spicy chocolate cookies with a cocoa and confectioners sugar glaze. I am SO excited to have found that recipe!!

My Mom's teacake cookies. Nobody can make them like she can!

These are my mom's favorites too. I have to make her a tin of them every year because she always requests them.

We make some called Sand Cookies. Basically it's a very thin sugar cookie with sprinkles to decorate.

Mine are peanut butter butter cookies with a Hershey's kiss on top. I also like snowball cookies.

My husband's family has a cookie called a "Tom Thumb" which is a basic sugar cookie made with powdered sugar and butter (and a little flour!) You're supposed to make them into a rather small ball and flatten it to bake. Then you sandwich two together with a butter/powdered sugar frosting. mmmm-mm!!

I just bought a box mix of these today at Sam's. I can't wait to try them out.

I have so many favorites. I love Date Balls, Butterscotch Bars, and Hello Dollies---those are my favorites.

Am I the only one who only makes these cookies at xmas time? It's so weird. I love them, but I absolutely can not make them any other time of year.

Toss up between Sugar and the ones with the Hershey Kisses in them.

I posted this over on the cooking board, for some new, quick & easy 'favorites".

Cookies from cake mixes

Chocolate Crinkles! They are chocolate cookies that are rolled in powdered sugar and they look crinkled after they are cooked. Best cookies ever!

...Hello Dollies...

Ever since my mother, named Dolly, passed away last year, I have been noticing things named Dolly. I just looked up this recipe online and saw it was also called "6 layer bars." When I was in college, the cafeteria made a "7 layer bar." I know they didn't use butterscotch chips, but I found an old recipe online where the extra "layer" was sugar, which is how they made it.

Is this like your recipe?

1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups graham wafer crumbs
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups flaked coconut
1 can sweetened condensed milk (Eagle Brand, 300ml)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Melt butter in a 9 x 13 inch cake pan. Remove from oven, and spread the melted butter evenly over the bottom of the pan.

Sprinkle the graham wafer crumbs evenly over the melted butter.

Sprinkle walnuts over the graham wafer crumbs, then chocolate chips, then coconut.

Pour sweetened condensed milk evenly over top of the coconut.

Return to oven and bake for about 25 minutes, until lightly browned on top. Cut into small squares when cooled.

Thatsa one spicy meatall! Isn't the internet great?

I like Snickerdoodles. Also I love the sugar cookies Mom used to make that are made with confectioner's (powdered) sugar, so at one point it is like you are making the dough out of frosting (assuming you're old enough to remember when icing didn't just come out of a can, lol)
