Mom’s Pumpkin Cookies
A childhood favorite of mine, these moist, cakey pumpkin cookies are studded with just the right amount of almonds and chocolate chips.
On the Bandwagon
Fashionable, super-sized chocolate chips cookies a la Jacques Torres, employing cake and bread flours, an overnight rest for the dough, and a garnish of finishing salt.
They Go Together Like Quiche and Cookies
Big chocolate chip cookies pick up the slack (and extra yolk) from making a crustless spinach-sausage quiche. While the latter was tasty, the crunchiness of the cooled cookies disappointed us.
I Need Help
Brown and white food may not be the healthiest, but it is so yummy. A veritable landslide of dichromatic meals, from pastas to baked goods to breakfast, with a finale of saffron-yellow fettuccine and leek…

Classic chewy peanut butter cookies, perfect for an afternoon snack with a tall glass of milk.
As Promised
These oatmeal-chocolate chip-walnut cookies are my personal favorites---crisp, chewy and crunchy.
Shades of Grey
Pale amaretti cookies meet gray buckwheat cookies in a mini-smorgasbord of Italian pastries.
No More Straying
Dorie Greenspan's chocolate chipsters, which baked up much thinner, crunchier, and flat-out butterier than we like.
Now Bring Us Some Figgy…
Frozen yogurt flavored with fresh figs and honey is a perfect match-up for lacy oatmeal wafers, purportedly a favorite dessert of Norman Rockwell's.

Our favorite chocolate chip cookies of all time, these decadent treats are studded with walnuts, chocolate and toffee bits, and stay chewy for days. The key is the low cooking temperature.
