1. Sugar Cookie Bites
These sugar cookie nibbles? They’re soft, they’re chewy, and oh-so-buttery. These cookies are amazing, but what takes them over the top is the pretty pink buttercream frosting. Then you can take it even further and finish them off with some fun sprinkles.
Now that’s how you take a cookie to the next level.
2. 3-Ingredient Mini Butter Cookies
Did you realize that some of the most delicious, buttery, tender, crumbly, and impossibly divine cookies require just three things? It’s certainly true.
Shortbread only requires flour, butter, and sugar. The real secret here is to make sure you use top-quality butter and that you’re gentle with the dough.
3. Mini Meringues
Crispy, crunchy outside, soft and chewy inside. In my opinion, that’s how you make a meringue. If you agree, you need to make these.
And, these meringues certainly are divine. The airy interior and crunchy shell? So good together.
Best part? They only need two things: sugar and egg whites.
4. Mini Snickerdoodles
These snickerdoodles? Chewy, soft, and buttery.
I think they even have a subtle, tangy twist that makes them stand out. Personally, I enjoy them with some white chocolate chips for an added bit of creamy sweetness.
What’s more, they’re also amazing by themselves. So sweet, so warm, and covered in cinnamon sugar. What could be better on a cold day?
5. Mini Gingerbread Men Cookies
How incredibly charming are these gingerbread cookies? Almost too cute. But, they’re way too tasty not to eat.
The cinnamon and ginger give them a warm sweetness. Plus, the spice gives off big fall vibes.
Make sure you turn the dough into any shape you want. This is where those cookie cutters you bought will finally come in handy.
6. S’mores Bites
You don’t need a campfire to make s’mores. This recipe lets you make yummy s’mores nibbles right in your kitchen. Also, so easy.
Just crush some Graham Crackers, mix with butter, and the crust is ready.
Then drop a chocolate block in the middle and top with a marshmallow. A little time in the oven, and bam, yum.
7. Glazed Lemon Drop Cookies
Craving lemon flavor? These are here for you.
These glazed lemon drop cookies aren’t just tasty; they’re also addictive. Plus, they’re so buttery, soft, and crumbly. The tart lemon glaze tones down the sweetness, so each bite is nicely balanced.
That lemon, though.
8. Mini Almond Biscotti
Biscotti? That’s from the Latin word biscoctus, or “twice-baked.” It means, these Italian treats are baked twice to get that crunchy, dry texture.
The first bake is in a flat log. The second happens after you slice it.
If you want the ultimate coffee pairing, you have it. The shape of these cookies is awesome for dipping.
9. Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites
These chocolate chip cookies? Very addictive. They’re super soft, super chewy, and packed with melty chocolate.
One recipe makes 144 cookies. But you might want them all for yourself.
Whatever party you make these for, they’ll be a hit. Make sure you bring the milk.
10. Mini Macarons
Personally, I think macarons are the perfect cookie.
Meringues? Similar. Just like those, macarons are crunchy outside, chewy inside.
What sets them apart? That almond flavor and, of course, the fillings.
This recipe uses a light, airy buttercream frosting. But try some others. Like fruit preserves, cream cheese frosting, and chocolate ganache.
11. Bite-Sized Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Chip Cookies
These are everything nice and chocolate, pumpkin, and spice. Like a chocolate pumpkin loaf I like, they’re spiced, warm, and decadent.
Have you not yet tried this flavor combo? Plan to be blown away.
Don’t skip these if you love pumpkin.
12. Mini M&M Cookies
Got cookie dough? The best way to give it some color is M&Ms. And it isn’t just color these bring; you’ll love that hard shell goes so well with the soft, chewy cookies.
Taste, texture, look: standing ovation time.
13. Funfetti Shortbread Bites
This recipe takes classic shortbread cookies and turns them into colorful, fun bites. You’ll be so into that contrast between the crumbly, buttery cookies and all those crunchy sprinkles.
Plus, these are so easy to mod for any holiday. Think pink and red, red and green, you get the idea. Put them in cute bags for an awesome edible gift.
14. Pecan Pie Bites
These nibbles really do taste like pecan pie because they have that crumbly crust and that chewy, nutty pecan filling. Just smaller, so you can pop them in your mouth.
Only downside? You could eat the whole batch without realizing it, so you better double or triple this one.
15. Bite-Sized Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
If you want a chewy cookie, oatmeal is where it’s at. They’ve got so much chewy, nutty texture, and the chocolate is perfectly gooey and ooey.
Even chocolate chip cookie purists will love these, I promise. So so good.
