Hi Cookie, and welcome to Chef Talk. With the many thousands of members here I'm sure some will come to your aid. We have a number of pastry chefs and bakers here. Why not dash over to the Welcome Forum and introduce yourself so we can give you a proper hello? We have many lively forums here (including pastry and baking forums); I hope you explore all of them.

What kinds of cookies were you looking for? Do you need them for a special event?

Hi Cookie - One of the great things about the internet is that you can't swing a dead cat (sorry cat lovers) without hitting a cookie recipe In addition to this, my most favorite of all culinary web sites, try the King Arthur Flour baking message board, The Baking Circle.

Default ummm....

I gues I was looking for any kind of cookie recipe, really. They aren't for a special occasion. I have one recipe that I normally use, but I was looking for others. Any cookie recipes will do fine! Thanks for responding!

Try this I split the chocolate chips, 1/2 white 1/2 semi-sweet. I also use a tablespoon sized scoop and add extra cooking time. Even using the larger sized scoop this is a huge batch. I get about 8 dozen TBS sized cookies from the listed amounts.


• 2 c. brown sugar (packed)
• 2 c. sugar
• 3/4 c. softened butter or margarine
• 1 c. shortening
• 4 eggs
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 3 1/2 c. flour
• 2 tsp salt
• 2 tsp soda
• 3 c. oatmeal
• 2 c. coconut
• 2 c. raisins
• 1 c. chocolate chips
• 1 c. chopped nuts

• Cream together brown sugar, sugar, margarine and shortening. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Combine flour, salt, and soda; beat into first mixture. Add remaining ingredients, mix well. Drop by teaspoon onto cookie sheets. Bake at 350 for about 8 minutes or til golden.
• This makes a HUGE batch of cookies! My stand mixer is a real life saver on this!

OATMEAL COOKIES
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup white flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1 cup Craisins or Raisins
3 cups old-fashioned oats
1 cup walnuts, rough chopped

Preheat the oven to 375º. Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven.
Beat butter until creamy. Add sugars; beat until creamy and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, then vanilla. Scrape sides of bowl.

Add flour, baking powder, salt & spices. Mix into butter-sugar mixture just until combined.

Add oats, craisins and walnuts and stir until combined.

Form by 4 oz. scoop of dough on parchment lined sheet pan. Press down slightly to flatten. Bake for 12 minutes, rotate sheets and bake 5 minutes more. Let cool completely before storing or stacking. The unbaked dough can be shaped into cookies & frozen.

Variation: OATMEAL-CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES: Stir in 12-oz. chocolate chips at the same time as oats & walnuts.

You can also vary the nuts - adding macadamias and possibly white chocolate chips.
