Just like last week, I'm loving the eclecticism (and immense skill) displayed in this week's hottest cookies. So much so that I'm honoring those in the big, broad hot list again - as opposed to choosing any special cookie subset. (Though heads up: I just created a new Back-to-School cookie clip set. Hmm, who knows . . . maybe, just maybe, I'm teeing up that category for next week's hot list?! You best stay on your toes, folks! 
)
This week, you'll find everything from a big, bold Superman cookie to the sweetest Shabby Chic-ish cookies I've ever seen, certainly on boxed Keebler cookies as was the case with this set. Other notables: an adorable hand-painted dog; an amazingly realistic urn, the likes of which I wish I had in my garden; a silver-studded baby set to honor HRH; and the list of amazements goes on . . . just take a gander yourself, and then stop to give a shout-out to this week's deserving honorees!

* As a reminder, a word about how the rankings are determined: The rankings are not at all subjective. In fact, they are determined essentially by you, our members, and the activity (number of views, likes, and comments) you've bestowed on each photo. The site uses a top-secret algorithm that weighs these various factors to determine which photos are trending most quickly (i.e., are the "hottest") over specified periods of time. As such, the hot list at the time of this announcement may look a little different a few hours or a day from now as more photos are added to the site. But what you see here is who was hottest over the previous week at the time of this post!
So that no one has an unfair advantage in making it onto a hot list, the algorithm is secret even to site administrators. Only our platform developers know the code, which has been exhaustively tested by those developers and Cookie Connection staff.
All photos shown here are the courtesy (and copyright) of the designers listed.
