Saturday Spotlight: Top 10 Cookies

 

Wow, what fickle people we cookiers are! A couple of days ago, even before Valentine's Day had passed, chicks and spring flowers were beginning to lure us away from hearts, Cupids, and other love-themed sets. Or maybe it was just the sudden cold snap that turned us on to warmer, springier motifs? (It was 6°F here yesterday! Yikes!)

No matter the motive, we've clearly moved on to the next cookie holiday, as this week's hot list* can attest. Sure, it's got some hearts here and there, but spring and Easter themes are definitely giving those valentines a run for their money!

Enjoy this week's featured cookies, and please say congrats to their creators along the way!

Congrats again, everyone! A quick housekeeping note before I leave you to enjoy the rest of your weekend: I will be out of town starting February 21 for both my cookie competition at That Takes the Cake and CookieCon, so I will not be posting Spotlights for the next two weeks. (So sorry, but the pace of these events can be grueling.) Spotlights will resume on Saturday, March 7, along with a 10 am (central) chat with Toni Miller of The Sprinkle Factory. 'Til then, happy cookie-ing! Hopefully, I will see some of you on my travels!

* 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.

To check out our other hot lists, at any time of day, visit our Hot Spot, also found in the site's main navigation line.
