Fruit Cookie Recipes

I was trying to make lemon cookies, but ended up making something totally different and I was glad with the outcome.

No-bake Nanaimo bars layered with a graham crust, custard, and chocolate.

The basic cake mix cookie with a twist.

An old favorite with the added goodness of gooey chocolate chips and coconut to make a delicious snack for lunch time.

Lots of coconut and sugar make these cookies chewy and delicious.

A date filled bar with a chewy oatmeal crust. This is my grandmother's recipe, which my whole family loves.

Lemon Whippersnappers, lemon crinkles, same thing! This is a formed (ball) cookie rolled in powdered sugar, like chocolate crinkle cookies, only flavored with lemon.

Shortbread thumbprint cookie filled with raspberry jam, and drizzled with glaze.

I love the tropical taste of these chewy delights. It's important to dice the pineapple very small so it does not overwhelm the other flavors.

These intensely rich brownie bars are not for the faint of appetite. Each brownie bears a fruity layer of raspberry jam and fresh raspberries that's covered with a truffle-like blanket of chocolate ganache over top. In other words, they're decadence incarnate. If raspberries aren't your favorite, you can always substitute strawberry jam and fresh strawberries--but you'll want to slice them in half rather than leaving them whole. If desired, garnish with a drizzle of melted white chocolate.

If you like German chocolate cake you'll love this quick and easy brownie version. It's moist, chewy, and decadent.

These are soft, chewy cookies that taste just like homemade banana bread!

This recipe uses very ripe bananas, the ones which you would not want to eat. The riper the bananas are, the more flavor they have.

Cheap and easy to make. Kids love them. Any berry can be used.

Crispy, chewy, coconut, oatmeal, cornflake cookies. Wow are these good!

If you're looking for a new strawberry and rhubarb recipe, try these delicious crumb bars. The bar cookies have a crumb crust, a juicy rhubarb and strawberry filling, and a crumbly top.

This is a fantastic lemon cookie recipe from scratch, making a batch of delicious, soft cookies with just a few lemons.

These nutty cinnamon bars use a sugar substitute for a wholesome twist.

These easy strawberry crumble bars feature freshly sliced strawberries sandwiched between a bottom crust and a top crumble layer.

Flour-free and sugar-free cookies naturally sweetened with bananas. You can have great cookies for breakfast or any time of the day without any guilt! A little bonus for me was that my 11-year-old brother loved these, even after they had been in the refrigerator!

These are so easy. Sweet and tangy with a perfect shortbread crust.

The red and green make a great Christmas cookie. Have used other nuts instead of pistachios with success. If your pistachios are salted, omit the 1/4 teaspoon salt from the recipe.

I should rename these to the Houdini cookies, with how fast they vanish from my kitchen. Very fluffy and delicious. My daughter just turned one and loves to help make these. She pulls the paper from the butter, peels the bananas, mashes and mixes. It's so fast and easy. Any time we have a couple bananas going brown we mix up these. The recipe originated as my grandmother's banana bread, but one day I was in a rush and didn't want to wait an hour for the bread to bake so I tossed them in as cookies and we all agreed it came out better this way.

A chewy oatmeal cookie with chocolate chips, shredded coconut, and chopped nuts. Great with or without nuts and coconut.
