Book Description

October 4, 2011
A delectable collection of cookie recipes from New York’s best chefs, pastry chefs, and bakers. Cookies are the perfect end to a wonderful meal. One-bite meringues and macaroons melt in your mouth, while linzers and tuiles are the ultimate fanciful confections. Tracey Zabar has selected distinctly original cookie recipes from seventy-five of the very best culinary talents in Manhattan. Some are the chefs’ personal recipes, while others are the signature creations of top restaurants-Le Cirque, Eleven Madison Park, Gramercy Tavern, Artisanal, City Bakery, Felidia, Daniel, and Blue Hill at Stone Barns are included in this scrumptious mix.
This irresistible array of more than ninety confectionary recipes for the home baker includes butterscotch and oatmeal cowboy cookies from Chef Mario Batali and his son Benno; coconut macaroons from master baker Sarabeth Levine; a chocolate chip cookie invented by Chef Todd English of Olives that combines his children’s favorite chocolate flavors with walnuts; Chef Jason Weiner of Almond’s rugelach; and Eli Zabar’s tempting buttery sugar cookies. There are also international cookies-Jammy Dodgers from England, wedding cookies from Puerto Rico, Kipferl from Austria, and Lamingtons from Australia. And chefs Francois Payard, Andre Soltner, and Daniel Boulud have added artful creations to the plate. This beautifully photographed book will not only appeal to discriminating dessert lovers but also to fans of New York City’s culinary scene, the cookie-swap aficionado, and the bake-sale maven.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"When cookie-obsessed baker Zabar couldn’t convince friends to participate in a cookie swap, she orchestrated a virtual exchange, the result of which is this outstanding collection of recipes from more than 50 well-known New York City chefs. With contributions from Dorie Greenspan, Michael Laiskonis, Maury Rubin, Laurent Tourondel, and others, this delightful book is perfect for readers who can’t decide among other recently published titles." ~Library Journal

5.0 out of 5 stars simply perfect October 24, 2011

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
..I LOVE this book!!! Every page is sooo beautiful! I've looked through this book countless times already. Yesterday I baked "Todd's favorite triple chocolate and walnut cookies", page 78, and took them to a party - they were a real hit! More than one person asked for the recipe...All I can say is: you REALLY have to buy this book. It's gorgeous, has lots of pictures, the recipes are precise and easy to follow, AND THE COOKIES ARE TO DIE FOR!
Honestly, you won't regret buying it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent cookies June 16, 2012
By Carol
Format:Hardcover
In my quest for great cookies, I was lucky to find this book. Every recipe has recieved rave reviews. These cookies go to many different get togethers and luckily some stay home. Surrounded by fancy desserts the cookies always disappear with none left behind. So far I have made 5 different recipes and all have been great. Concise, easy to follow directions. Recipe takes at least a whole page if not more with easy to read size font with many pictures, but not for each recipe.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Quintessential Cookie Collection June 21, 2012
Format:Hardcover
Perhaps because this book is published by Rizzoli and the author is from one of the first families of food , it is elegant.
One simply salivates as you read the treasured recipes and the blurbs above each.
A treasure and most welcome addition to my extensive cook book collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars So far great cookies! March 21, 2013
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I recently purchased this cookbook when a friend of mine raved about it. I have only tried two cookies and both were terrific. The first was Tracy Zabar's,"Chumleys" made with pecans, chocolate chips and brown sugar. I made them in a square brownie pan so they were thick and then cut them the size of a biscotti and sent them off to my daughter at college. The kids have been asking me to make them again. The second cookie I made was the coconut chocolate chip. This was my favorite and one of the best cookies I have ever had. My friend made the sugar topped molasses spice cookies and said they were delicious too.

The book is well formatted with pictures of the cookies and directions are clear. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys making cookies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ready for My Christmas Cookie Exchange October 7, 2011
Format:Hardcover
Tracey Zabar, of the famous NYC foodie family, has outdone herself with this book. Every page is a delight, every cookie makes one drool.

For anyone who loves to bake or just loves food porn, this is for you.

3.0 out of 5 stars Many Recipes March 17, 2013
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
A good mid-level book. It's OK, but there are better cookie books available. Nonetheless, if you have a library of cookie recipe books, this one should probably be in it. One drawback is that the recipes are those of bakery chefs -- and yiels huge quantities of cookies.
