50 Best Cookie Recipes to Make Now (Updated for 2023)

Looking for the best cookie recipes ever? You've come to the right place.

The 50 Best Cookie Recipes on the Internet was my most popular post for years and made the first page of Digg in 24 hours.

50 different types of cookies to suit all tastes and celebrations! Who knew that y'all liked cookies so darn much?

Here it is, the original. I am checking all the links and polishing it up some ...adding some new links and removing dead ones...but The 50 Best Cookie Recipes on the Internet is a classic and continues to be.

Gotta admit...I know my cookie dough.

Most cookies freeze well, either baked or just dough, for up to three months.

One of the best ways to have quick cookies any time is to use drop cookie dough, drop by teaspoonfuls on a cookie sheet, and then freeze it.

Once the unbaked cookies are frozen you can toss them in a freezer bag and have cookies anytime -- as many or as few as you like. Plus it's an easy thing to double or triple a batch of cookies so you have enough dough to freeze.

So, here are my picks for the 50 best cookies on the internet, or anywhere else for that matter. I've updated it for 2015. Enjoy, y'all.
