Tell me why you're in an awesome mood. Or tell me why life sucks right now and you really need some cookies. Make me laugh. Or cry. Whatever, what we're really talking about is free cookies here.

I'll take requests but if not specified I'm thinking peanut butter, chocolate chip, or oatmeal raisin.

And...go!

edit: Offer is closed, cookies are going out to DEStudent & delightedwhen. edit: I should add, US only so things will still be fresh and tasty when they get there.

They would likely be shipped around Dec 14th.

So far I've got chocolate chip cookies, and sugar cookie cutouts(and a few windows panes) and I also plan on making Peanut Butter cookies. I don't know if I'll have time, but I'd like to do a fourth kind so a suggestion there would be helpful.

I should be able to provide a few people with some festive cookies!

Edit: Sorry for the delay, I'll be contacting people via PM and sending out the cookies on Monday as long as I get addresses back. Please note that they are made in the same bowls and such so if you have allergies beware.

The cookies are(recipes linked where possible):

-Chocolate Chip Cookies - modified version of this recipe

-Sugar Cookies

-Peanut Butter Cookies - modified version of this recipe

-Chocolate Crackle Cookies

edit2: Recipes added

Edit3: I have enough to send 5 packages and I've contacted 5 people. If I don't hear back I'll start contacting others to fill the slots. So far 3 people are set. -- 4 of the packages have been sent, one person didn't respond so I'm contacting another.

edit4: all have been sent and some have already received them!

Hello all! I'm a 65 year old grandmother, and have had plenty of time to perfect some recipes! I also have my grandbabies help me!

Cookie Flavors:

• M&M cookies

• Chocolate Chip Cookies

• Sugar Cookies

• Peanut Butter Cookies

• White Chocolate & Macadamia nut

& A variety pack with all the above flavors.

I want to do this in the most organize manner as possible.

I will be baking these cookies on the 1st week of October. That way I have plenty of time to get the ingredients and know the quantity i'm making. so please send me a message with the flavor or flavors of cookies you would like, and please only up to 2, unless you choose variety pack.

I need an address and a name..as well as allergies; if you're allergic to peanut, obviously your batch wouldn't be made at the same time as the other cookies!

Enjoy and God Bless!!

By the way, these are made from scratch. I bake as part of my regular routine, so really, you guys are just giving me somewhere to send all the cookies!

SHIPPING

YAY USPS IS CHEAP! this is what IM USING.

I'm going to individually wrap the cookies and package them in a container and then inside a box with some padding so they don't break!! I want to make sure you all get wonderful cookies!

if you wish to help with shipping I have paypal but I will calculate shipping on USPS site and you can double-check if you wish. Obviously it won't all be the same shipping price which is why I definitely need addresses for you all to ensure we get the right price and the cookies go to the right people!! :)

Thank you all so much, in my age it's hard to find things to occupy yourself that still give you joy. I love giving to you all and I can't wait for your reviews of my cookies! I won't be sending these until Oct 2nd. I'm baking them all up on the 1st, and going to drop them off packaged and ready to go on Oct 2nd. :)

I would love to do this but I'm frankly too old to be hassled online for nothing, if everyone must know, i was going to use my Foodstamps like I do every month to buy the baking ingredients to cook for you guys, but because i dont have alot of cash, and asked for things i dont have the money for, im a scammer. makes no sense to me but really i have a pacemaker, 2 knees that were operated on, and stomach cancer as well as neuropathy. i really shouldnt have to stress baking some cookies for people. I'm leaving my account open and i will be participating in other parts of reddit where i can give without being harassed. its unjust and unkind. i have posts on wish upon a hero that site i have to be verified on by giving my utility bill and telephone and other stuff and i am verified.

Just last night I learned the simple magic of Oreo cake balls! They are simple and to 'effing die for! They are soft, rich, yummy, cakey and really easy to make :) So I'd love to make some for you! Here's what they look like.

If you like Oreos you'll love these. So, who wants some? I'll totally make up a batch or two this weekend. Lets make this fun, post your favorite meme and I'll pick a few random winners this weekend!

Update! the balls were sent out monday and should be received before the end of the week!

I've given poops and balls thus far.. Hopefully I can keep this theme going :D

CLOSED

I'll be making a bunch of Unicorn Poop cookies this weekend. They are essentially sugar cookies with tons of pizzazz and love put into them. They will be lemon flavored (simply because that's what we love the most!). I'll be selecting 2-3 lucky receivers before Friday wanting to accept around a half dozen cookies. Tell me why you want to receive the cookies without a sob story and I will deliver! Here's a picture of some from my last batch

**UPDATE: Randomly selected selectees selected. menmybabies Jew_Crusher 8serene8 blue_eyedsweetie

I need addresses and shit before Monday! Thanks for playing :) **

ALL DONE! Coming to a select few! Enjoy! <3

I received the book, I think it's AWESOME...thank you so very much! I THEN received a box of your favorite cookies from when you were a child....

That's when things got weird for me. It was a box of "The Barking Bus" "Animal Shaped Dog Treats".

Either you trolled me or your parents trolled you....but I DID actually eat one and it tasted like a combination of animal crackers with bacon flavoring. Wasn't quite to MY liking, however I do happen to have a dog.

Either way, my daughter and I had a GREAT laugh about it and my dog has dog treats now. LOL, well played and well done sir. ; )

Thank you!!!

I just found this sub and random cookies would be really awesome! But no one has even posted here in like a week :P

Edit: I don't have any more cookies guys. This was posted over a month ago. My inbox keeps filling up with requests for them and I feel all sortsa bad. Sorry!

Since I can't afford to buy & send pizza to someone or send money to anyone, I thought I would bake cookies! I have all the ingredients and can pick up whatever else needed. :) I love to bake, so I'd love to make you my very special Salted Caramel Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

They're the most delicious things on the face of the planet.

Also, you can request them with or without crushed pecans on top (some people are allergic to nuts!).

Made with love by me and my 3 year old! (He loves to pour and mix :D )

Just message me your address and if you'd like them with or without nuts on top :>

Ren & 3 year old Jude

Silly question, I know!

I love to bake and one of my favourites is a double chocolate chip cookie. I'd like to offer five lovely redditors a little of my home-baked goodness. :)

EDIT: Thank you for responses! Barring any problems, I should be shipping out the goodies no later than Wednesday of next week (2nd Nov).

Hello everyone! I just finished some baking ahead of the holidays, and I'm about to run out to the post office... before I go, would anyone be interested in a dozen of my homemade Peanut Butter Blossom cookies (the one with a Hershey's Kiss in the middle)?

I know there are many people out there who miss their home and their families, but perhaps some cookies could brighten your day. First to reply gets the deliciousness!

<3

EDIT: Cookies have found a home! Thanks for the interest everyone!

Last month user GreatGrandmaof5 made an offer to send cookies to a few lucky winners (http://www.reddit.com/r/RandomActsOfCookies/comments/10a246/offer_baking_all_types_of_cookies_around_the_1st/). She was unfortunately, and wrongly, accused of scamming. I have been talking with her on and off over the past month and she has recently sent me proof of her identity, as that was in question in the OP. She is who she says she is and that would legitimize the rest of her post as well.

The question was raised of how can she afford to bake and ship cookies, while still asking for monetary assistance on other subreddits. Her response was that she had planned on using some of her food stamps for ingredients to bake the cookies and that she only mentioned shipping costs when another user asked her about it. She may or may not be able to afford shipping depending on the final cost. Her need for an expensive laptop does not really negate the fact that she might be able to afford ingredients for a few cookies with her food stamps and might just want to give back what she can since she's also asking for assistance elsewhere.

I don't know if she will be making another offer here or not, but I would ask that users not harass her if she does, please. She has sent me a picture of her with her username and date hand written and she fits the description she gave, so people claiming that she is not a great grandmother are inaccurate, at least in their age estimates.

Thank you for your understanding, and I would like to remind everyone that I do take scams very seriously. If you suspect a user of scamming message the mods, please. Do not accuse the OP in their thread as it only starts witch hunts. Innocent users can be harassed doing it this way, so please always just message the mods and report the thread. Thank you.

I'm putting this here because I don't know where else to put it. Today I received a pizza from random acts of pizza, and I also have been told that some great cookies are on their way to me. ( I can hardly wait, nom nom, and coffee, hmmmmmm) Anyway, allow me to say here that I have been overtaken by the generosity of the people here and on the other acts of .......... I just can't fathom what I've seen sometimes. It seems almost too good to be true. Anyway I'll finish babbling here, and say that I want to take the time to say thank you for everyone here, and in the other subreddits, for giving me a glimmer of hope for humanity.

TL;DR Just a thank you and my babbling.

It was definitely appreciated

Hi everyone! I just found this sub and will be doing a lot of baking in the next two weeks and would love to spread some christmas cheer. I'm sorry to restrict it to Canada & US but shipping can get quite expensive. If you have any particular requests, let me know in a PM with your address.

Merry Christmas :)

Edit: Okay, it looks like my wishlist for cookies is sufficiently long, I'm going to end the offer now due to shipping costs. If you see this and didn't get to request any, I'll hopefully do another one in the near future :)

The title was longer than i thought it would be :-/. Anyway, just found out i'm not going to the navy anymore, my dream since i was a kid. Have been waiting since December for a call back from my recruiter. When i left (Military Entrance Processing Station), my recruiter told me that it was a 50/50 shot of me getting in. I had done well on all of my tests, and even took a shit job, just so i'd have a guaranteed spot. But when i was a kid living in different foster homes in california, i had a couple run ins with the law. My main one being i got randomly stopped walking down the street, and was found in possession of marijuana. That,s what fucked me and why i'm no longer going to the military. A 13 year old with a gram. doesn't mater that i'm now a father, husband, and college student going for his BA. Being a normal teenager determined my whole life. I feel like i'm probably rambling now. I don't even care about cookies, they'd be cool, but whatever. guess i just need somewhere to vent, people to tell. I tend to kick it around the random reddits, paying forward what/when i can, and i've seen how most people in these parts carry themselves, tend to be a bit nicer, so i felt this would be a good place to vent. I got this call 3 days ago, and outside of my wife, you guys/girls are the first one to hear it. anyway, enough venting, probably not a great first impression :p

Me and my daughters (1 and a half and 3) have been kicked out of our home and we're living with some friends until we find a new place. We're all crammed into a tiny room for the next few weeks and we're pretty stressed and upset. Some cookies would really cheer us up and we'd be very thankful. Please?

EDIT And the winner is......rwheeler720! Cookies will be made for you this weekend and shipped out on Monday.

My husband will be taking an oral qualifying exam for his PhD program early next week and is a nervous wreck. Because I am already making an assortment of cookies for his committee, I thought I would send some out to someone that can help cheer him up/calm him down just a little bit- he'll decide the winner on this one. I am making lemon drop sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies, and cranberry-white chocolate chip-pecan cookies for him this weekend. No guarantees yet, but there will likely be peanut butter cookies as well. So, give me a good story, drawing, joke, anything to help me help him, and I can send you any one of these types of cookies or an assortment if you would prefer. I will edit this post once he has decided who I should be sending the cookies to.

I'll be shipping the cookies out early next week, on either Monday or Tuesday as my schedule allows.

My daughter and I will be having a cookie bonding day on Friday. We makes sugar cookies with bits and pieces of Andes mints in them. There are always too many for us to eat and we would love to share them with someone. Any takers? We can mail them anywhere in the US.

Since this subreddit isn’t very active I thought I’d make this post to kind of see what people are interested in getting. I don’t really care if you’re going through a hard time or just want cookies... as long as receiving cookies from me will brighten your day a little bit.

I thought that after putting some feelers out, I’d see about just making an offer post each time I make a batch.

I like trying new cuisines and am all for making vegan and gluten free sweets, and this is not limited to cookies, it extends to all sweets I might be able to send via mail (really really wish I could send ice cream).

Does anyone else feel similarly? Anyone interested? My favorites are a bit niche, personally.

Also, would it be okay if I made offer posts for slices of cake loaf? Goodies that might qualify as candies, not cake or cookies? Hybrids?

Anyway, please let me know, here in the comments or in messages is good too. :)

I bought way too many boxes of girl scout cookies, so I'd like to send someone a box of thin mints! I realize homemade cookies are the best, but I am the worst baker in the world. So, give me a reason why you think I should send you cookies. :)

My mom made no-bake cookies when I was growing up fairly regularly. You know, the chocolate-pb-oatmeal cookies? I cannot make mine taste right. I am the fail of the baking world and these cookies don't even require any baking. If I had a left nut (or a right nut, I guess) to give, I would give it for some cookies. In exchange to show my appreciation, I'd be willing to give you a badly drawn (not for lack of trying) portrait. Probably drawn with crayons.

I would love to bake somebody an assortment of holiday cookies - I have quite a few supplies left over from Christmas that I need to use up! I'll send a dozen or so cookies, including chocolate chip, macadamia nut, and probably a couple of others! =)

Please send me a PM and let me know why you think you are deserving. I'll post back here when they are gone!

Update: Done and shipped, thanks everyone who wrote!
