What a great quick cookie recipe! Brown sugar, butter and ginger cookies. Today we have made cookies with the children, and apart from having a great time forming and decorating their cookies each one to their liking, some SUPER DELICIOUS cookies have come out. So I leave you the recipe in case you dare to also make this Sunday a cookie Sunday.

Alfajores are one of the most popular sweets in Argentine gastronomy, although they are not exclusive to the country of tango, barbecues and gauchos. They are also very present in other Latin American countries such as Uruguay, Chile, Mexico or the Dominican Republic.

They are very simple to prepare and are slow to die, at least in their most classic and traditional form: filled with dulce de leche and coated in grated coconut.

I have not seen a faster and easier cookie recipe to make than this one with banana and oat flakes. It's as easy to make as you mash the banana, mix with the oatmeal and bake. Today I bring the two modalities of this recipe that are most successful at home. Of course, they incorporate chocolate: "Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies" and "Chocolate Coated Coconut Oatmeal Cookies." Which one do you think you will stay with?

A few days ago, we shared a post in which we told you how to prepare the icing for cookies. Christmas is here and it's time to put it into practice! Simple decorations for Christmas cookies, but defined and elegant. That is what we want to focus on in this post. I hope that the ideas for making Christmas cookies that I bring you today inspire you to prepare some of the most beautiful, homemade and original cookies.

Every day we hear more about the Speculoos cookies, typical and the most traditional on Christmas dates in Belgium (where they are called speculaas), and also very popular in Germany (Spekulatius). I'll tell you a few things about them and I bring you a recipe for the most spicy and Christmas almond Spéculoos cookies.

It's cookie time, and we'll agree they look gorgeous with cookie icing to decorate them. The frosting is sheer consistency, and it's as easy to make as mixing sugar and egg white. If you haven't done it until now, with all the explanations you have in this post on how to make cookie icing, the time has come to start.

If you're looking for the ultimate chocolate chip cookie recipe, you've found it. Ever since I tried this recipe from NYC Cookies, my little ones don't want another: they are the chocolate cookies that have become popular in New York since they were published in the New York Times. There are different versions, you will find them under names like "New York Times Cookies" (or NYT Cookies), "New York City Cookies" (or NYC Cookies) or New York Chio Cookies. Regardless of the name you find, it's scary!

It is difficult to find something faster, simpler and richer to prepare in the kitchen than some homemade cookies (especially if we have an “extra” pair of hands ready to do the job). There are endless cookie recipes, but in general, each of us has one that stands out above the rest, our favorite cookie recipe, the one that never fails. In our case, and after a long and undisputed reign of the typical chocolate chip cookies, these chocolate brownie cookies are our latest weakness.

I make these chocolate filled shortbread cookies at home every week. I stopped buying the ones from the supermarket when I found out that industrial cookies were not entirely healthy, and even more so those filled with cocoa cream.

Do you know that homemade cookies can last even a month in perfect condition if you keep them well? That as long as you don't get distracted and the little ones (or some older child in the house... Ehem!) don't play the little mouse and eat them first.

Baking cookies is one of my favorite pleasures. It is easy and it is also fast, since both the dough requires very little mixing and the baking takes little time (about 15 minutes). The kids also enjoy it, you make sure you eat quality ingredients and, if you make them in quantity, you have reservations for days.

These butter cookies are made with our churrera, how do you like them? A churrera is much like a cookie gun in how it works: a tube with a plunger that pushes the dough through a die. A little force and little mystery.

There are many reasons to bake cookies at home: the cold, wanting to give someone a gift, having a good time with the kids in the kitchen or simply enjoying a homemade sweet. This time Rosa, author of Pemberley Cup&Cakes, offers us a basic that cannot be missed on these dates: the most delicious gingerbread cookie recipe you can make. What can't you resist?
