Saturday Spotlight: Top 10 Back-to-School Cookies

 

It's been markedly quieter in my neighborhood this week . . . no kids buzzing about on their bikes, no ice cream trucks tempting me with their catchy jingles, no moms puttering about their yards . . . Yes, it seems everyone's finally put summer to rest and is now fully occupied with getting back to school!

As this Spotlight attests, even we cookiers are turning our attention to pencils, blackboards, apples, and other back-to-school themes. With everything from cute-as-a-button students to elegant notebook-ruled hearts, this week's honorees have studied this subject well, and are deserving of nothing less than an A+!

If you haven't yet given your favorite teacher a proper "Welcome back!", or appeased your reluctant class-goers with a delicious afternoon snack, then there's plenty of food for thought in the cookie images that follow! Enjoy, and congrats to our hot list*, some of whom posted these top-trending images two or three years ago! (Now that's staying power, folks!)

Such fun work! Congrats again, everyone!

* 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.

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.
