There’s a super cookbook giveway at the end of this post, but first a little rant.
I really really wish I liked to drink coffee, but I just don’t like it. It would be SO much more convenient. Coffee is pretty much everywhere you turn, and us poor second class citizen tea drinkers are doing great if we can find some lukewarm hot water and a tea bag. It’s my favorite part of going to London…I am for once in the majority, hot-beverage-wise. Even though the last time I was there it seemed like there was a Starbucks popping up ominously on every corner. Fight back, my London friends!!
However, I mysteriously DO like the taste of coffee when it is baked into things. Say, for example, chocolate chip cookies. Say, for example, chocolate chip cookies made with a mix of dark and white chocolate chips. Say, for example, chocolate chip cookies inspired by the ever-fabulous Julia Child.
Which leads me to the awesome contest, because I have not one, not two but THREE copies of this to give you guys:
Yes I do. And it includes recipes for all kinds of fabulous Julia-inspired baked goods, including these…
There’s few things in life better than a full cookie jar on your kitchen counter, don’t you think?
So here’s what you do: leave me a comment on the bottom of this post telling me what your favorite kind of cookie is, and you will be entered into the drawing for one of these cookbooks. As always, my beloved email subscribers can enter by clicking the title of the post, which will flip you over to the actual website – you can comment there. I will announce the lucky lucky winners next Saturday, February 13, at 7pm. So bring on your cookies, and in the meantime, here’s the recipe for mine!

These look so good!
I have never met I cookie that I DON"T like
But, if I had to choose one, it would be chocolate chip! Oh dear. Now I want a cookie!
My favorite kind would have to be homemade oreos, but my grandma makes the best date nut cookies and i have found that snicker-doodles have healing powers. I guess I really have three favorite cookies.
what about cookie dough!?
I have a new favorite since I recently made the white chocolate, coconut, macadamia cookies from the original Magnolia Bakery cookbook. Crazy good! Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.

My favorite cookies are white chocolate macadamia nut cookies. Classic & delicious.
Chocolate cookies with cinnamon and peanut butter cups.
coconut pecan chocolate chip. eating one as i type:) mmm…
Choosing one cookie is soooo difficult. Simple shortbread is probably #1, but I also LOVE almond biscotti and ginger cookies and you really can't go wrong with chocolate chip (ooh with nuts!)
Definitely good old-fashioned chocolate chip!
I have been craving plain ol' M&M cookies lately!
White Chocolate Chip Macadamia Nut cookies are my fave!
Chocolate chip with black walnuts. Just thinking about them makes me want to make them.
white & semisweet chocolate chip and cranberries cookies are my absolute favorite
My favorite cookies are coconut macaroons. YUM! Thank you for the great giveaway!
personally i love chocolate chip cookies, without the chocolate chips. but add some walnuts or pecans… mmm. cowboy cookies are also AMAZING.
my favourite is good ol' fashioned chocolate chip

Cherry oatmeal cookies are delicious. I make them every year around the holidays.
PB&J sandwich cookies! Yum!
Chocolate macademia nut cookies are the best!
i like oatmeal chocolate chip from the Joy of Cooking cookbook, but i use chunks of Dove dark chocolate instead of chips- i would love this cookbook!!
My favorite is the traditional underbaked, chewey Toll House chocolate chip cookie, but I'm such a fan of cookies (over most other baked goodies) that I rarely turn down a good cookie! In addition to ice cream, and dark chocolate anything, you've hit one of my top three my dessert weaknesses.
I've to say I'm not a huge fan of eating cookies but I love to bake them (I know it's weird!). I think my favorite cookie to bake is the basic chocolate chip
I'm absolutely nuts for Alton Brown's chewy chocolate chip cookies. SO good!
My favorite is chocolate kisses! But these mocha chocolate chip cookies are yummi
My mom's molasses cookies – soft, cakey – delish. Perfect with a cold glass of milk.

Tied between chocolate chip and ginger snaps.
Chocolate chocolate chip with a peanut butter filling, courtesy of Martha. The mocha chocolate chip look fantastic though!
I love brown butter chocolate chip cookies. After making the most recent batch,I devoured 20(!) of them in a row, while they were still warm, which is why I don't bake them very often. I have no will-power or self-restraint when it comes to brown butter chocolate chip cookies.
Chocolate Chip. Baking them has been a passion of mine for years.
How can I pass up this recipe…Chocolate chip cookies are my FAV!
Hate to be standard, but I also have to go with chocolate chip. But I'll have to try these – I agree, coffee as a beverage is just unappealing, while I love it in baked goods.
Martha Stewart has a recipe for chewy gingerbread cookies which are the best I've ever tasted. D'Amico's in Mpls also has some molasses cookies which are full of spice and awesome.
