Best Simple Cookie Recipes Made From Scratch

Whether you are a seasoned baker, or if you are just learning how to make homemade cookies, you've come to the right place!

I've been baking cookies for over three decades, and I want to help you have success making cookies from scratch. You can become a master at baking cookies with this cookie collection!

Are you looking for a basic cookie recipe like chocolate chip cookies or sugar cookies, or you want to up your game with stuffed cookies or frosted cookies? No matter what kind of cookies you're craving, I bet you can find a recipe here that will make you smile.

SO MANY WAYS TO MAKE COOKIES

From easy drop cookies to no bake cookies, to rolled cookies, there's a cookie recipe for any occasion. Even a beginning baker can make delicious cookies with just a few basic ingredients.

Most of the cookies on my site can be whipped up in just one bowl. I like using a hand mixer, but a Kitchenaid or Bosch works well too.

ENDLESS FLAVORS OF COOKIES

There are literally thousands of amazing flavors and variations of cookies you can whip up!

Love peanut butter? I have over a dozen variations of peanut butter cookies.

Any chocoholics out there? Me too! Over half of my cookie recipes call for some type of chocolate, and are sure to satisfy any level of chocolate craving.

You will also find cookies with cherries, cookies with cinnamon, lemon cookies, mint cookies, sugar cookies, and oatmeal cookies. The list goes on and on.

FAVORITE COOKIE RECIPES

Some of my personal favorites here on the site are Brookie Cookies and Andes Mint Cookies. Thank goodness they both freeze well, or I would eat way too many in one sitting.

My family goes crazy for my old fashioned cinnamon sugar Snickerdoodles. And of course ooey gooey chewy chocolate chip cookies are a hit anytime, anywhere.

Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies and Lemon Sugar Cookies are really popular with my readers.

Whatever variety of cookie you are in the mood for, you should be able to find something here at Creations by Kara that will satisfy you! Now let's start baking!
