I have two recipes for yummy cookies but unfortunately I do not have a link where you can look at them....
One is pumpkin cookies with icing and the other is no bake peanut butter cookies or around here referred to as preacher cookies....
I will share them with you:

1 c. confectioner's sugar
3/4 t. vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, mix cookie ingredients together. Drop by spoonfuls onto baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
While cookies are baking, in a saucepan, melt butter. Once butter is melted, added brown sugar and let cool. Be careful not to let it cool completely or it will harden up and will have to be reheated. Add confectioner's sugar, milk, and vanilla. Icing should be at spreadable consistency. Spread over cookies

1 stick butter
4 T. cocoa
1/2 c. milk
3 c. oatmeal
1/2 c. peanut butter

Once the mixture has boiled, remove from heat and add oatmeal, peanut butter, and vanilla. More peanut butter can be added if desired. If desired, add the raisins and coconut. Spoon mixture onto wax paper and let cool. Once cookies have set up, refrigerate in container.
Hampie Cookies! They are SUPER easy!
Hampie cookies are called that because my Great Aunt Hampie would bring them to EVERY family gathering we had before she passed away a few years ago. They are really simple to make but when you bring them somewhere everyone is always impressed!
ingredients:
Peanut Butter
Chocolate Bark
Marshmallow Cream
Round Snack Crackers (Like Ritz)
All you do is spread PB on one cracker and marshmallow cream on the other and make a sandwich. http://www.nabiscoworld.com/ritz/recipe_鈥?/a>
Then you melt the chocolate and dip in the cracker sandwich and then place on wax paper to harden. It is the perfect blend of sweet and salty!
I just posted my favourite sugar cookie recipe on my blog
http://ringpopbride.blogspot.com
there's a picture there too.
Of course! Marthastewart.com
She is the best and she has real simple ways of presenting the cookies, like in tin cans, and other wraps that will make your cookies stand out on appeal!
Sorry, no picture but Hop Scotch is a cookie/candy that tastes really good and has sold well at bake sales.
1/2 cupPeanut butter,6 oz. butterscotch chips,2 cups mini marshmellows and 1 can chrispychinese noodles are the ingredients. Melt the peanut butter and chips together stiring until smooth (can be done carefully in the microwave) then pour over the mixed noodles and marshmellows, then drop by spoon onto wax paper cover cookie sheets and refrigerate until set. Store in tightly covered containers.
