Delicious cookies are enjoyed throughout the world, but there are certain flavors that are more popular than others. So whether you enjoy cookies for breakfast, for dessert, or as a snack, you may be interested in what the most beloved flavors are so you can give all of them a try.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
The chocolate chip cookie is one of the most beloved cookies in the world. It’s so simple yet so delicious, and it goes perfectly with a glass of milk. This classic American cookie is actually a blend of brown sugar and white sugar, chocolate chips, and flour. Adding or subtracting the amount of flour used will change the texture from chewy to crunchy, depending upon your preferences.
Peanut Butter Cookies
Many cookie lovers wouldn’t think twice of calling peanut butter cookies “health food.” After all, with so much high-protein peanut butter in them, they’ll fill you up and keep you going, especially if whole wheat flour is used rather than white flour. But the truth is that these cookies are also high in sugar, which makes them so yummy, and many bakers also like adding chocolate chips or various types of nuts in order to add more texture and flavor.
Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Oatmeal raisin cookies, like peanut butter cookies, can be considered a “healthy” snack. Great for breakfast, they contain raisins and oatmeal, so they’ll fill you up and keep you going too. Add brown sugar and cinnamon to a classic recipe to give the cookies even more flavor and aroma.
Sugar Cookies
Basic sugar cookies are always a hit, whether you’re enjoying them at a birthday party or during the holidays. And there are so many things that you can do with sugar cookies. For example, you can keep them plain without any icing, or you can add icing. You can shape them by hand or you can use a cookie cutter. This makes them a lot of fun to make, and a lot of fun to eat. Plus, they’re less sweet than a lot of other cookies, despite their name.
Macaroons
Macaroons are famous French sandwich cookies that come in a variety of flavors and colors. Usually filled with jam, ganache, or buttercream, they also contain icing sugar, almond powder, ground almond, food coloring, granulated sugar, and egg whites.
Gingersnaps
Popular around the holidays, gingersnaps are actually one of the most sought-after cookies in the world. They contain a delicious combination of spices and molasses, making them a truly uniquely flavored treat that can be enjoyed anytime. Some bakers will even roll the gingersnap cookie dough in some colored sugar to add even more sweetness and a pop of color as well.

All of these cookies sound delish! In my house, my husband”s favorite is Oatmeal Raising, my oldest loves chocolate chip and my youngest loves Peanut Butter so we are always making a variety.
I love all of these flavors of cookies! Except maybe the ginger snaps – I only eat those in the past when I was pregnant with each of our kids. All wonderful flavors and fun to make in the kitchen with the kids!
