I’ve posted a LOT of cookie recipes on my blog over the years, but when it gets tight down to it, my favorite would have to be the infamous Chocolate Chip Cookie! I like them soft in the middle and full of chocolate chips! I’ve also recently added a little something else that I love (Read on!)!

Lemon Crinkle Cookies
At one of the churches we visited this year we enjoyed a time of fellowship after the service where the church families were asked to bring dessert. Someone brought Lemon Crinkle Cookies and they were so delicious that I went searching for the recipe after I returned home. I have found two types of Lemon Crinkle Cookies – one made with a boxed cake mix and the other from scratch. I have only made the “from scratch” variety so far, but they were easy and very good.
Gluten-Free Ginger Cookies
I enjoy getting stretched in my cooking and baking skills. When more and more people have food allergies, it can be a challenge to have snacks or meals in which everyone can partake. Several people in my small group Bible study have a gluten intolerance, so I’ve been challenged to find recipes they can enjoy.
While on vacation I stumbled across a cookbook called, Skinny Southern Baking, by Laura Lyn Carter.
From breads to cakes, this book has it all. The thing that attracted me to her recipes was that there is no strange ingredients like xanthan gum. Of course you use gluten-free flours, but that’s the only extra ingredient needed, for the most part.
I tried my first recipe a couple weeks ago and got rave reviews from not only the gluten-free snackers, but also from others who wanted to try them!

But I’m happy to say that there are little treats that are delicious and don’t have to kill the hope of eating better!

Low-Fat Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie
I had a fun baking afternoon last week. I whipped up a batch of Low-Fat Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies. When I told my daughter Alli what I had made she said,
No cookie should be Low-fat!
I get what she’s saying, but honestly, I have tried many recipes that are labeled “low-fat,” but still have so much flavor. Also, they don’t taste like you’re eating the sand on the beach! This new recipe is one of those great finds! It replaces applesauce for some of the fat, giving it plenty of moisture. It has oatmeal in it, too, giving it texture and chewiness. Add those chocolate chips in there and you have a delicious cookie without the guilt!
