Rich cookies, light cookies, wholesome cookies, simple cookies, unusual cookies, even downright decadent cookies have all brought their creators to the Bake-Off® Contest. Recipe histories run the gamut from Old World cookies like the 1957 winner, Accordion Treats, to absolutely American concoctions like Cherry Winks, which are coated with crushed cornflakes, to Old World--New World hybrids like Quick Crescent Baklava.
Some Bake-Off® cookies, like Peanut Blossoms and Snappy Turtle Cookies, have gone on to become American classics. They have become classics because they are festive, tasty, fun to make and, of course because they're cookies--which means they're great dessert, snacks, gifts and holiday activities. If enthusiasm is the province of youth, and wisdom the gift of maturity, isn't it nice that the two can meet for cookies? Cookies truly are food for the young and the young at heart.
