I eat chocolate, sure, but I'm not a big fan. If I never had chocolate again in my life, I doubt I would really miss it.
Yeah, I know, to some that is SACRILEGE!

I think the peanut butter cookie is the one I choose if you said I could only keep one. Especially with the little toffee bits on top! Yum!

(27,430 posts)It's a recipe from a 1930something cookbook that belonged to my mother. Because it's so old, the amount of sugar is significantly less than in a modern recipe. And they come out of the oven an exquisite combination of crispy and chewy.

(27,430 posts)For me, as soon as my cookies have cooled down to room temperature they may as well be stale.

(36,517 posts)I really like oatmeal cookies, but the raisins, blecch. I've never been fond of raisins and only really like them in Raisin Bran for some reason.

(20,239 posts)Laffing out loud here!
When I was playing in our park as a kid most times my Mom would raise her arm when I was near by, wave her hand w a little box of Sunmaid's Raisins in it.
Blargh!
I didn't dislike them soooo much that I'd gag on them (unlike licorice first and only time I ever had a black jelly bean 😄😬Gak!), but I really disliked them!
I can eat them a bit now like raisin bran, or little pumpernickel rolls with raisins, and walnuts. And Ukrainian Easter bread. That's it.

(652 posts)Anytime they are in something and get re-hydrated , they are just disgusting. Cant do it! 😏

I avoided them? 😄
Almost positive my mom never made any. Don't think I recall anyone else cooking, or bringing a dish like that.

(20,239 posts)I don't think I'd ever had a sugar cookie with frosting.
Love the PB Cookies.
Chocolate chip near addict as long as the chips are at least semi sweet. Prefer bittersweet. 😍🍪😍

(5,394 posts)Well, I suppose you can let them harden and then use them as poker chips, or maybe to shore up an uneven table leg.
It was my birthday and I was seven, and as I was leaving for school my Mom told me she was making snickerdoodles for the occasion. She had never made them for me before so I was unfamiliar with that cookie. But, I was (a newly minted) seven, so when she said 'snickerdoodle' I of course thought that they were made with chocolate, peanuts, caramel and nougat. In other words, a Snickers. It seemed a miracle that such a cookie would exist. Imagine my disappointment when I arrived home only to find a god damn sugar cookie.
I've never touched them since. Miss you Mom, despite the sugar cookie incident.

(33,058 posts)Don't get me wrong, I love the others maybe just a tiny bit more than chocolate chip. Now my wife prefers chocolate chip over any of them.
