History
Lazy Cookies come from the long tradition of “quick bakes”—recipes created during busy times when people still wanted something homemade. Similar cookies appeared in households during the mid-20th century, when simple ingredients and fast preparation were essential. They’re the modern answer to classic comfort baking: minimal effort, maximum reward.
Formation (How These Cookies Come Together)
The melted butter creates a soft, tender texture. The egg binds everything gently, while baking powder gives just enough lift to keep the cookies light. Because there’s no chilling, the dough spreads naturally, creating that rustic, homemade look we all love.

Lazy Cookies prove that you don’t need complicated steps or expensive ingredients to make something delicious. They’re warm, forgiving, and endlessly customizable—exactly the kind of recipe you’ll come back to again and again. When life feels busy, these cookies slow things down in the best way.
