I have the Martha Stewart Cookies book and I'd totally recommend it. It's got good pics of every cookie and they're divided into common-sense sections - nutty, cakey, crispy, etc.

My favorites are a no bake cookie with cocoa powder, rolled oats, peanut butter, etc. They're so yummy!

My favorite are regular ole chocolate chip.

However, I always make Scottish Shortbread at Christmas.  (I didn't know much about my heritage as a kid and had no traditions, so I'm trying to incorporate some for DD now).  They are super easy to make.  

I roll them into small balls and then put a thumb print in the top of each one and then dust it with sugar before baking.  This year, I'm going to add mini chocolate chips for a change.

I'm boring. I love chocolate chip, but have a super easy one to share, not even a recipe really though.

white chocolate chip oatmeal cranberry or however you want to say it! 

 oatmeal cookie recipe, either your own, from a bag whatever, make per directions and just thrown in a handful of white chocolate chips and dried cranberries and bake. They are soooo good. One of my moms favorites and she doesn't like white chocolate.

Yeah, I'm thinking we're heading to the store after I drop DS off at school.
