Ooh yes, I love to bake whenever I'm able to! I prefer to bake cookies although I don't mind trying out other things. My favorite cookies to do is either oatmeal or chocolate chip. I've never tried to do peanut butter cookies from scratch yet but I'm hoping to try soon

thank you for sharing! I'll definitely check it out
I'm also a big fan of cookie baking. I like that there are a lot of different options, you can make something simple or something complex if you're feeling ambitious. There are clear steps to follow. It takes a bit of know-how to make things turn out well, which I like because it proves that this is something I know how to do well. And, at the end, you have a finished product that is also delicious.
I find that cookies can be a good coping mechanism when I'm stressed. It gives me something to focus on instead of whatever's stressing me out. It's something I can control, and something where you can get from the beginning to the finished product in a relatively short time. Then, you have something yummy to eat. And, if you share, then you're brightening someone else's day and there are often compliments. Who doesn't love compliments?

Great self-care activity! I have tried to make healthier-type cookies and they turn out pretty good-tasting
I love baking cakes!
I absolutely love cookie dough!

That's the best part of baking cookies! I found this recipe for when I'm craving a bit of cookie dough (and it's much safer to eat since there are no eggs) and it is yummy! This one is just for eating...not for baking! :) Let me know if you try it! Cookie Hugs! ♥

When I can, yes. I'm a dark chocolate and nut lover myself. I'd like to bake more often with nuts, like butterscotch pecan waffles, but my sister is allergic, so I can't do that often.
