I think I've voluntarily made enough cookies in my life that I can tack it on to my self-definition.
Indeed, I'm the Cookie Woman.
Not quite as fun (or blue) as the Cookie Monster, but certainly enthusiastic about the given foodstuff.

Personal baking tips
I underbake most of the cookies, though there's a few exceptions.
I keep my oven at about 325, rather than 350 (which is what the vast majority of recipes call for).
This year I was all about the parchment paper. Works so well, and less clean up!
A few years ago I invested in a cooling rack and it's my favourite cookies baking tool ever.
Do you do holiday baking? What are some of your favourite recipes?
I love asking this question, as I've received some great recipes in the past from you all. And hey, if there's any cookies up there that you're way keen on, just let me know and I'll get the recipe to you!

Holy smokes, that's a lot of cookies! You ARE the cookie woman! The green trees at the top look so yummy...I love iced cookies, YUM. I usually try to make Swedish Tea Ring for a few friends every year, but it unfortunately doesn't always happen. Aaaand, that's about it. :)
whoa, you ARE a baking machine! I don't bake as much as I used to, but favourite to- make holiday cookies are spritz cookies, because I get to use my cookie press which is super fun.
That is a lot of different cookies! I hope you have a good cookie taster!
