I haven’t brought a cookie basket to a meeting in a long while. (I guess if I wanted to be current, I’d put them in a box.) My favourite cookie basket was divided between snickerdoodles and chocolate crinkles, both recipes I’ve been making since I was a kid. They look dramatic together, but homey at the same time, and the flavours complement each other well.
Now, I think I’ve got a third candidate for that basket. These cookies have a texture that’s different from both, lemony top notes that are deepened by the flavours of the almond flour and semolina, and a coating of icing sugar that sparks nostalgia.
I made these on Sunday and by Monday they’d all been spirited away from my house. Well, spirited is probably the wrong word – eagerly packed up and driven away? Devoured in the lunch room? Those are more accurate descriptions. I managed to have two myself, so I’m not complaining.
I can just make them again, along with some snickerdoodles and chocolate crinkles, and share.

These cookies look great! I can’t wait to make them.
I can’t wait to make them again!
a different kind of crinkle cookie– can’t wait to make these! (and i like your cookie box comment- haha).
I was hoping someone would appreciate that comment! 🙂
They look so tempting with their yellow crinkles, no wonder they were whisked away. A Cooke basket sounds more charming to me,
I love cookie baskets – easy to put together and always pretty.
Your work mates are very lucky to have such nice cookies.
They were just mad that I had shared the rest of the batch with others!
Have loved seeing everyone make these cookies – they are so tempting!!
I think you’d love them!
