I get questions all the time by email about what kind of pans I use to cook and bake. What brand cookie sheets do I use. What type of cupcake liners do I buy.
And for many many years (at least 15) I have been using stoneware cookie sheets to bake my cookies. I was introduced to them years ago at a Pampered Chef party, and had been a loyal fan forever. Notice I said “had”???
Yep. It’s true. I’ve been converted. I was asked by Heirloom brand Cookie Sheets to review one of their Heavy Duty Stainless Steel cookie sheets. So, I did what any baker would do, I tested it out. Using half the dough on my tried and true stoneware and half the dough on these cookie sheets, I went to baking some delicious lemon cookies.
And guess what? They baked up identically. Seriously. That never happens. Usually with a metal sheet the bottoms brown faster. Nope. Not this time. Identical. So here’s the thing. My stoneware baking sheets are HEAVY. And not too versatile. These Heirloom cookie sheets are fantastic.
And my husbands favorite part? They can go in the dishwasher. Yep. Tried it. Works. Clean and shiny with no scrubbing. They store a little easier than my heavy stoneware too.
Now, I just need to get more of them, one cookie sheet is not enough for this girl.
But, YOU all? The winner of today’s giveaway will win TWO cookie sheets. I’m a bit jealous. (I can’t enter my own giveaway, right?)
Before we get to the giveaway though, let’s talk about the cookies I baked. Lemon Crunch.
Why the crunch? Well, I added Lemon Oreos. You heard me right. Amazing little cookies. Oreo pretty much is a genius cookie maker. I also added in some Sugar Free JELL-O lemon gelatin (which keeps these soft and chewy). So yes. Chewy cookies with a crunch. It’s really the best of both worlds!
**if you can’t find the Lemon Oreos, substitute any lemon sandwich cookie instead. And cry just a little bit. Then eat a cookie and feel better!
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 pkg (0.3oz) Sugar Free JELL-O lemon gelatin mix
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 2 cup all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 14 lemon Oreos (or lemon sandwich cookies), chopped
- 1 bag (12oz) white chocolate morsels
Instructions
- In mixing bowl, beat butter with sugars. Add in JELL-O mix, salt and eggs, mixing until completely combined.
- Add in vanilla. Add flour and baking soda, mix completely. Fold in chopped cookies and morsels.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop cookie dough by large tablespoon onto cookie sheet. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 10-13 minutes. Remove and cool on wire rack. Store in airtight container for up to one week.

It was a tough switch. But I am honestly loving the new pans. Some cookies will still have to be made on the stone, just because, haha!!
I would definitely try your Lemon Crunch Cookies for sure! Lemon is one of my favorites!
Hmmm… I would probably make Snowball Cookies. Those are my absolute favorite holiday cookie! Thanks for the giveaway!

Olivia @ Liv Lives Life recently posted..TwelveTwelveTwelve
Lemon Crunch Cookies of course!
I will finally bake some peanut butter blossoms instead of just eating the bags of festively wrapped Hershey’s kisses. Actually, I’m only halfway thru the 1st bag, which I think demonstrates remarkable restraint on my part!
Total restraint. I could never. Once it’s open consider it gone!!!
nutella stuffed browned butter chocolate chip cookies
oatmeal butterscotch cookies!!
I would bake monster cookies. It is my favorite cookie recipe by far.
I would bake your white chocolate oreo cookies!
I’d love to make these, but… sugar free Jell-O? Can I just use regular instead? I really don’t like using artificial sweeteners in anything.
You can. I was watching my calories. haha. Kidding, I don’t watch my calories. It’s what I had on hand
I don’t think there’s a kind of cookie I WOULDN’T bake! I recently had a rocky road cookie with these delicious chewy marshmallow bits – I think those would be my first try. After that – well, I’d methodically work my way through all your recipes of course. (Till I EXPPLOODDDEEE!)
Haha. Please don’t explode or I’m going to have to put a disclosure on all my recipes, “Shugary Sweets is not responsible if you explode.” Those rocky road cookies sound incredible. Hmmmm, may have to create a version for the blog here!
Oooh! Please do – can’t seem to get the person who made the ones I had part with her recipe!
I live in a small town..can I substitute Vanilla Oreos?
You can! you might lose a little of the lemon flavor but they will still be fantastic (and the JELLO helps add flavor too)!
the lemon cookies!
I would bake Chocolate Kiss Cookies – my family’s traditional first cookie of the season!
I would have to make your copycat jingle cookies. My grandchildren really enjoy those cookies and I would really impress them with these cookies
Ooooh, those are so good!!!
I make a healthy whole wheat with dried coconut and nuts. Soooo good. You can even add dried fruit. No white flour or white sugar. It has sucanat for the sugar.
Sugar cookies to decorate!
I would make tons and tons of the Pistachio Pudding Cookies!
Good choice. Those were absolutely delicious!!
Love, love anything lemon-so excited to try these

Where in the WORLD did you find Lemon Oreos Aimee? I can’t even find the Gingerbread Oreos in my neck of the woods….
Those cookies look DELICIOUS-and so don’t those cookie sheets. The first cookies I would bake on those cookie sheets are the Crunchy Coconut Cookies I grew up with-LOVE those.
I’d make snickerdoodles on these great cookie sheets. Snickerdoodles are a favorite of mine.

I would bake Raisin Cookies (Hermits). I would love to try new cookie sheets, I’m not impressed with the last ones I purchased (what a waste of money)…
Lemon Crunch cookies? Wow! I have to try those. Lemon makes anything taste great!
These cookies look awesome! If I had new cookie sheets, which I desperately need, I would make my family’s cut-out cookies. Looks like it’d be easy peasy on them.
Christmas cookies! I have 3 generations worth of traditional cookies to make… My great grandmother’s Pocketbooks, my mom’s mom’s (that looks funny!) Russian tea cakes, my dad’s mom’s Pefernusse, and my own random cookie (this year I’m thinking short bread). All I’ve made this holiday season is my mom’s fudge… I’m WAY behind schedule!

Joan@Chocolateandmore recently posted..Grandma’s Sugar Cookies
You can also substitute any brand of lemon sandwich cookies (even Girl Scouts make some too). It’s hard to use anything but stoneware…but I’m telling you these sheets are fantastic!

I just LOVE cookies! To me they are the absolute best dessert, well, maybe next to cheesecake!
My hubby’s favorites are chocolate chip w/ nuts, so that’s what I’d make.
Wait, wait wait… Oreo makes LEMON flavored cookies? Must enter drawing for cookie sheets, then MUST find lemon Oreos! Woot! Keep up the good work, Aimee! Those double chocolate Oreo cookies are calling my name
Haha, this cracked me up!! The lemon cookies are amazing! But, if you can’t find them, girl scouts make lemon sandwich cookies (as do most grocery store brand cookies)!!! GOOD LUCK.
Definitely some classic chocolate chip!

Heather {Dietetic Sinners} recently posted..Mock Toffee {12 Days of Christmas Treats}
I hope you find the lemon oreos! You can substitute store brand lemon sandwich cookies, and girl scouts makes a lemon cookie too that would work! ENJOY.
Lemon cookies are the bomb! Never knew Oreo made lemon cookies, but am not surprised because Oreos rock. I don’t know what cookies I’d make first, I’ve got such a long list of cookies I want to make.

I just got through popping a sheet of cookies in the oven. I only had 1/4 oz. of jello to put in the cookies so I added some lemon juice and lemon zest. My resident cookie dough eater (my daughter) assured me that the dough tasted great and had enough of a lemon taste. I should be able to judge for myself in 3 minutes. Thanks for the recipe.
Love it! ENjoy!!!
Note to self….. don’t eat lemon cookies while they are still warm. I tried them and thought they were just OK. However, after they cooled I tried them again and they were awesome. The first cooled batch lasted about 5 minutes and I had to fight my husband for the last cookie. Thanks again for the recipe.
I have a quick question. When I bought the sugar free gelatin and brought it home I realized that it only contained .30 ozs. so I added some lemon zest and lemon juice. The cookies didn’t last but 1 day so I went back to the store to buy more ingredients to make some more. Am I actually supposed to use 1 oz. of the gelatin (which means I would have to buy at least 3 packages to get close to 1 oz.) or just 1 package of .30 ozs? I can’t find any sugar free gelatin that has 1 oz.
UGH. I am so so sorry. That is totally my typo! You are correct, it is only .3oz pkg of gelatin. I hope it didn’t cause you too much of a headache. Fixing the recipe now!!!
