I will be baking cookies for a holiday fair and we need to make money for a good cause.
What kind of cookies would you be most likely to buy?
EDITED TO ADD: We made 60 pounds of fudge, so we are all set with fudge. :)
 
I like sugar cookies that are decorated. Sprinkles or frosting. Or the dragees.
And the ones I can't spell. Pfeffernusse.
Spirals are another one. Alternating a plain sugar cookie dough with chocolate.
I make a lot of tree shaped cookies with green and red sprinkles. And lobster shapes with red frosting.
 
I'm most likely to buy chocolate chip, though oatmeal raisin is a close second.
 
The molasses cookie recipe in here is great. I add chopped fruits to it. If you are making Christmasy cookies make them with fruits & peels added. They are easy and good and yes, I would buy them. It would also be something different from the usual choc chip & oatmeal raisin.
 
I make a great eggnog cookie - kinda like a snickerdoodle in appearance, but eggnog flavored. If I saw one of those, I'd HAVE to buy it! I also like anything with toffee or dark chocolate in them. There's a recipe online for Smores Bars that is super yummy. Everyone loves smores!
 
anything full of chocolate. gooey brownies. Choc Chips. or chunks.
I don't like hard cookies of any type. If you do sugar cookies I like them soft type.
This one has always been a favorite of mine and this one.
 
I would buy cookies I don't make, typically.
So for the holidays I buy thumbprint cookies (and/or with the hershey kisses)
Shortbread cookies of any and every variety (pecan, greek, etc)
I don't buy anything with sprinkles or decorated type that end up falling apart in the bag.
Squares of all variety
Fudge of all variety, esp peanut butter fudge

I guess I'm your counter type. I won't touch a soft cookie at all. The crunchier the better. And no chocolate at all. If it has peanuts, they better be as nuts and not as peanut butter. To me a soft cookie is a cake that didn't make it.

Yes, you are.
Your choice is my last choice (for this exercise) a "bake sale" type event.
I remember in Australia the big bake sale item that I loved were Lammies. They sold out every time!

Then again, I sell my confections at $1.50 to $1.75 a piece in packets of 6 or more. 3.5 cm (about an inch and a half). When I was in LV they were $2.25 a piece and commercially formed. They had them at one buffet and people were grabbing them like there was no tomorrow.... and they weren't great, they used jam and they were overly sweet.
 
Because there are some 'I wouldn't buy that' comments, here's mine - brownies. I'm fussy about brownies.
But I would buy fudge. LOVE fudge.

Me too. Dry brownies, blech. They are always that way, unless we make them. :)

'Cake-style'. Why not just make a dang cake then? Why get my hopes up for a nice, gooey 'brownie'! Sigh.

We surely agree on this!
I think maybe we should keep microwave fudge ingreds in the house for the B&B guests this Nov thru end of Dec. It is so easy. 10 minutes - here is one
