From chocolate chip to oatmeal raisin, there truly is no bad type of cookie. Cookies are fun to make and make great treats for special occasions, and just about everyone loves them. Here are just a few of the sweet, creative cookie recipes available online.

Raspberry and Almond Shortbread Thumbprints
These little, buttery cookies are full of flavor, and they look classy enough to serve at fancy dinner parties or celebrations. An almond drizzle adds a little something extra to the traditional shortbread, and the tart raspberry center is the perfect finish.

Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
The name says these are the best, and who are we to argue? Everyone’s favorite cookie is fast and easy to make, and the ooey, gooey chocolate chips taste even better when they’re warm out of the oven.

Chocolate Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies
With no baking involved, these cookies are perfect to make with your small children. Simply blend cocoa, peanut butter, oatmeal and a few other simple ingredients and you’ll have deliciously chewy cookies in a matter of minutes.

Lemon Ricotta Cookies with Lemon Glaze
For those who prefer a more savory cookie, this lemon ricotta recipe is a perfect choice. The sweet lemon flavor offsets the rich ricotta to create a unique flavor that’s just as good as gourmet.
