We have a cookout next week and I would like to bring some "summer" cookies.
Criteria:
-Easy/fast to make
-Nothing too heavy
-Preferably not a lot of expensive ingredients
-Kid friendly flavor profile
My go-to cookies are yummy, but better suited to winter (various PB and chocolate) or labor intensive (cut out cookies).
Cupcake recommendations are also welcome, but cookies are preferred.

No bake cookies?
There are some s’mores type cookies that might work.

I would definitely go with lemon or some other fruit flavor.

Do you have to make them?
I love the butter waffle cookies from TJs. Also, their new PB cartwheel cookies are so good.

Monster cookies are my go-to these days. They’re a
Hit in my son’s kinder class.
No bake cookies are next.
Or I would do cookie bars as mentioned.
I don’t really associate different cookies with different seasons.
Ok- I guess gingersnaps and cutout are my go-to’s for Christmas.
But really nothing beats a good chocolate chip cookie anytime of the year.

If you want to do homemade I have a S’Mores cookie recipe. It’s basically a modified chocolate chip cookie batter, but with graham cracker crumbs. Then in the last few minutes u sprinkle on some chopped up Hershey bar and mini marshmallows. People seem to like them.
Also any kind of lemon bar/cookie is usually good for summer.

I’d love to try the recipe. S’mores are basically my favourite thing about summer. |

Thumbprint cookies with strawberry or peach preserves, lemon bars. My mom made mini cheesecake cupcakes with fresh strawberry topping a lot for summer parties. You could do blueberry too.

Icebox strawberry shortcake. Line the bottom of a baking dish with graham crackers, top with cool whip, then sliced strawberries. Repeat the layers. Freeze until solid. Let it sit out for a bit before cutting into it. It's always a hit with kids.

Not exactly cookies, but rice crispie squares and hay stacks (just chow mein noodles and butterscotch), plus the no bake cookies already mentioned, are my summer go tos.

I’m just here to check out the recipes.
I would make rice crispy treats with M&Ms in them.

Oh my god I know what I'm making after this baby comes out 🤤 I forgot to mention. Under bake them slightly. I usually don’t bake them longer than the lowest amount of time it says in the recipe. They are so moist that way. |
