The best cookie book ever!,
This review is from: Got Milk? the Cookie Book (Paperback)
I've been baking cookies for over 20 years and never before have I ever come across a book as informative about baking cookies as this delightful book. This book helps explain why some cookies turn out chewy, and why others turn out crunchy. There are recipes for various kinds of chocolate chip cookies - classic, thin and chewy, thick and chewy, crisp and crunchy, double chocolate chip, peanut butter, etc. Apart from cookies, there are also recipes for biscotti, shortbread, macaroons and meringues, amongst others. This is not only a book for beginners, it is also a book for the cookie connoisseur.

The one and only cookie guide you'll need.,
By LBB (Manila, Philippines) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Got Milk? the Cookie Book (Paperback)
There are so many books about cookies that it's very difficult to tell what's good and what's not. Despite its simple title, I reach for this book when I'm in the mood to make cookies and/or have a question about them. Of course there is the requisite introduction on equipment, technique, ingredients and storage of cookies. Chapters here include an entire section devoted to chocolate chip cookies, based on whether you like them thin and chewy, thick and chewy, classic, etc. There are loads of variations on the different recipes, as well as helpful tips. There are also delightfully creative cookies like the stained glass cookies, which involve cutting out smaller shapes from a large cookie and melting hard candies inside them. I have not stopped baking from this book since I bought it, and every recipe has turned out beautifully. This book is recommended for beginners and advanced bakers alike. PS: The Utterly Buttery Shortbread recipe (pg. 61) is to just die for!)

A GREAT Cookie book!!,

This review is from: Got Milk? the Cookie Book (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book of good basic standards. The recipe for sugar cookies is one of the best I've ever come across. It makes a beautiful sturdy cookie that is crispy and delicious and can be decorated or eaten plain. One of my other favorites are the recipes for Oatmeal CCC, Crispies and the like. These are excellent recipes. There is great information on ingredients, technique and it's presented in a very readable and enjoyable format. I LOVE this book.
