Tasty Cookies

These Tasty Cookie Recipes have been tested over and over again to ensure that each time you make the recipe they come out just right. Cookies here include drop cookies such as Vanilla Bean Sugar Cookies, or bakery style cookies such as these Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies, and even less common types of cookies inspired by my time living in Europe, like these Norwegian Waffle Cookies.

If you're wondering whether or not you can mix your cookie dough by hand, take a look at this Cookie Dough Mixing Experiment.
