Finals/ pre-finals week this year is kicking/ kicked my butt. It really snuck up on me (Also Google is telling me “snuck” isn’t a word – am I that tired?). Normally I am up to my eyes in cookie dough by now!
I did make a batch of cookie dough bites for a party last weekend. The consistency turned out a little different – but they were still damn good. Guys, I actually baked them this time. And they were very well received (also, I think beer makes cookies go down even easier, but that’s a story for another day).
I plan to launch into full baking mode when I head home for break. In the meantime, I thought I’d compile a list of cookie recipes that I’ve been drooling over lately. Be warned, you may get extremely hungry by the end of this post.
1. Flourless Chocolate Coconut Drops via Shutterbean
I’ve been on an intense coconut and chocolate kick lately. And by that I mean I finished off a batch of this chocolate coconut granola in maybe three days.
2. Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Cookies via Tartelette
These are so cute looking! And a little challenging looking. Definitely going to be giving them a shot, though.
3. Gooey Butter Cookies via See You In The Morning
Apparently they taste like “baked cream cheese frosting.” I’ll leave it at that.
4. Peanut Butter, Pretzel, and Brownie Thumbprint Cookies from Top With Cinnamon
And these are a few of my favorite thiiiiings.
5. Biscoff Chocolate Chip Cookies via Eat, Live, Run
New twist on an old favorite. Especially awesome for the cookie butter obsessed (not that we are here, or anything crazy like that). Also I love all of Jenna’s baked goods!
6. Molasses Triple Chocolate Cookies via Averie Cooks
I’ve it before and I’ll say it again – Molasses is the most underrated sweetener.
7. Pumpkin Gingerdoodles via Culinary Concoctions
I literally laughed out loud when I first saw this because the idea of combining two types of cookies this way had never crossed my mind. I’m betting the result is brilliant.
8. Pomegranate White Chocolate Chunk Cookies via Two Peas and their Pod
These made the list because 1) I recently rekindled my love affair with white chocolate, and 2) I finally learn how to de-pomegranate a pomegranate.
Happy Christmas Baking!
