The next treat in our Holiday Cookie Chronicles is giving the people what they really want: A queen-sized cookie from the Queen of Cookies herself, Dorie Greenspan. This cookie landscape is studded with chocolate and laced with espresso.
, and I were thinking about building a cookie business, all we talked about were cookies. Flavors, of course. We’d have chocolate and vanilla and peanut butter and oatmeal—that went without saying—and sometimes we’d have all of them together. We talked a lot about add-ins. I always wanted chocolate and he always wanted raisins ; we both wanted nuts .
And, until almost the last minute, we talked about size: What is the perfect size for a cookie? How many bites should a cookie have? And should each bite be the same? Have the same texture? Pack the same flavors? These days, my favorite big cookie teeters between crisp and chewy and leaves room for tinkering. It’s got spice, if you want that. It’s got ground coffee, but it doesn’t have to. And it’s got chopped chocolate and chopped nuts, or not. I like the cookie with a mix of white and whole-wheat flour, which adds nuttiness.

Olive Oil Sugar Cookies With Pistachios & Lemon Glaze Recipe on Food52When I was growing up, my grandma would often stay with us during Christmas. She never learned to drive, so she took a three-hour bus to Minneapolis. She traveled with one suitcase—full of clothes and a plethora of scarves (she always had a scarf around her neck or head)—and a container of crispy pecan cookies. My mom hid these from the rest of us as soon as Grandma arrived, nibbling in secret all of Christmas Eve and Day. At the time, I had no interest, and let my mom enjoy them as she pleased. When I was in sixth grade, Grandma came a few days after Christmas, with her usual suitcase, scarves, and crispy cookies. My siblings and I were impatient for another round of present opening and, in anticipation of the big event, were pleasantly helpful all day. After dinner, my little brother passed out the presents, and the three of us discovered, in dismay, that Grandma had brought just one small gift for each. Sensing my mother’s narrowed eyes, we tried to conceal our disappointment. Grandma was excited and encouraged us to open our gifts at the same time. We did, silently praying it was something amazing. A Game Boy? A really small tape recorder? Maybe a new Baby-Sitters Club book? But when I removed the paper from my gift, I discovered a 5x7-inch framed photograph—of Grandma. She was in a bright pink sweater with a light pink scarf around her neck, half-smiling to the camera. “I took pictures of myself this year for Christmas!” she laughed. “I’ll always be watching you, even when I’m gone. You won’t ever be able to forget me!” My siblings and I glanced at each other, mortified, but, remembering again that we should be polite, thanked her. “You better put those up in your room!” she said sternly. The three of us set them on our dressers, completely bemused. Regardless of that initial disappointment, Grandma sat on my shelf all through junior high, and high school. She came with me to college, perched on my dresser next to square, silver Pier One frames full of high
