Nanaimo bars. This Canadian specialty is a no-bake three-layer bar: a base of nuts, coconut, graham cracker crumbs and melted chocolate; a middle of custard or buttercream frosting; and a chocolate top.

Mexican wedding cookies. Also known as snowballs or Russian tea cakes, these are buttery nut-based balls rolled in powdered sugar. Many recipes online; here’s cookie queen Maida Heatter’s version.

Yogurt chocolate chip cookies: An easy drop cookie that — except for yogurt replacing the eggs — uses the same ingredients as the Toll House classic.
