Unfortunately I did not write it down and it turns out different every time. I take a basic butter cookie recipe and replace any liquid (like extract or water) with a tablespoon each of tequila, triple sec and lime (I might do 2 of the lime.) I also add the zest of the lime.
The tequila icing is just powdered sugar, tequila, lime juice and water. And a drop of green food coloring.
The good news is, if you figure it out yourself you can say "I got the idea online, but I developed the recipe myself."

Ok, now I want to bake and I'm not much of a baker. My kids don't like cookies/cakes and I don't need them. But boy do these recipes sound good.

Also those little buttery tea cookies with the jam in (or on).
Oooo, Stella D'Oro cookies. I used to love getting the box of assorted Stella D'Oro cookies. I don't think they make them anymore. I can't find them around here anywhere.
And almond shortbread cookies.
And chocolate shortbread.
Now I want cookies. You break my heart my friend. Do you still not know Amazon sells almost anything. And they'll bring the Stella d'Oro cookies right to your door... ETA: that's what I get for posting from a very different time zone. I saw that someone else already put you straight Yes, I have had the Amazon listing for the cookies brought to my attention. I am still contemplating the purchase.
While Amazon does, indeed, sell everything one could want (and many things one doesn't know one wants until Amazon suggests them), squishable food items do not always arrive in their original condition. It would make me sad to receive smashed cookies, so I will have to work up the courage to place the order and then hope for the best. (I am still traumatized by the squished and leaking state the Dole red grapefruit cups I ordered had achieved by the time they made it to my front porch.)

It must be a baking night. I just finished a batch of chocolate chip cookies.

White chocolate and macadamia. Pepperidge Farms Sausalito. Thin mints. Sugar cookies. Lemon cookies. Toll House chocolate chip cookies with walnut. These are just the cookies tied for first.

MIL makes many cookies for holidays. Many Russian recipes. But the butter cookies, once I start, I can't stop eating. Oh yes! I forgot butter cookies. Add these to my list!

Oh, yeah, butter cookies are the bomb! I like sugar cookies, too. And chocolate no bakes.

I managed to make it to the store and bought a crapload of black cherries; hard and sweet.
SO much better than any cookies.

The good news is, if you figure it out yourself you can say "I got the idea online, but I developed the recipe myself." Oh my...you might have just made me take back my "I don't like cookies" comment...

I just made a double batch of red velvet chocolate chip cookies. Trying to get them made for the cookie table at my wedding.
Last night was chocolate with peanut butter chips. They are already in the freezer. DF got 2 then I put the rest in freezer or he would have eaten them all.

Little dude made some sort of brownie cookies this morning. Tasted like gooey brownies but shaped like a drop cookie and he added a little chocolate on the top of each one so they had a little pool of melty pure chocolate in the middle. I don't normally like chocolate dough cookies, but they were really awesome. Might add them to the favorites list.

I finally figured out the nuts/no nuts of brownies a few months ago. I like nuts in my brownies, TD thinks that they are an abomination. I also solved the corner fight of the pan. Nothing like seeing a pan of brownies with the corners and edges cut out, but the center intact.
I used muffin tins, made 6 brownies without nuts, added nuts to the remaining batter and added it to the other 6 muffin tins. All brownies have edges, mine gave nuts and his don't.
