Honestly, if it's crispy-crunchy, it's probably my favorite, doesn't really matter the kind hahaha.
My mom makes these cookies, it's a style called "icebox" cookie, where you make the dough and roll it into a log and freeze it. You can store it like this forever. When you want some cookies, you slice the log while frozen into coins of dough and bake it. Comes out wonderful; thin and crispy, buttery and crunchy...she usually puts nuts in them, it's almost like a shortbread except more cookie-like.
What's even better is making a frosting or sweet dip or spread of some kind and spreading/dipping the cookies into it like chips. Chocolate ganache, cream-cheese frosting, and so on. It's a good way to do dessert for a lot of people just put a plate of cookies out with a bowl of dessert dip.
I absolutely hate the chewy par-baked dough that has become the modern American chocolate chip cookie. Just want to throw that out there, because everyone seems to love them. If you're like me, you're not alone!
