I used to burn my cookies all the time too, until I figured out that the key to the perfect cookie is to take it out before it looks done - I tended to let them cook until I thought they were done, at which time they were overly crispy! If I take them out when I'm not quite sure they're done, they usually turn out wonderfully.
Other than that - I just use cookbooks if I'm not baking from a mix! I tried some cookies (double chocolate) from scratch the other day, and the dough didn't turn out right, so the cookies were terrible. But I love to bake, and hate to cook.
