I've 'tested' so many of these recipes, I'm going to have to start wearing a tent. The recipes are pretty easy, pretty fast, pretty foolproof, and REALLY good. My favorite is the butterscotch chocolate chip brownies. MMMMMMMMMMMMM!

This book would have received five stars, except for the fact that mine was printed incorrectly and I must see about returning it for a good copy. One chapter is printed twice, and the duplicate eliminates one section entirely. Odd mistake, and one I've never seen before.

On to the content: Ms. Rosenberg's first book was excellent. This wasn't as good, but it was still much better than other cookie books out there. Why? Well, the recipies are easy to follow, fun to make, and good to eat. On making them the frustration level is nil. It is a refreshing book for cooks of all areas of expertise -- and a great volume to share with the kids. There are definetly some noteworthy treasures in here, worthy of becoming the stuff of family legend.

Like I said, great book. I look forward to getting a shiny new copy so I can see what I'm missing! ;)

I've had this book for more than a year, and of the multiple recipes I've made, none have been anything less than great. And you simply must make the brownies!

If you're looking for decadent, delicious cookies with ALL the good stuff in them, this is the book for you! Clear, precise recipies combined with hints, suggestions, and just plain good reading combine to make this book one of my personal favorites. Comments from friends when eating the results: "MMMM!!!", "Wherever did you find this cookie?", "Oh, MY!". I can't wait to sample Rosie's Baking Book ... if it's half as good as this one, it has to be a winner!

This is the cookbook that made me go cookie crazy. Every single recipe I've tried turned out scrumptious and never failed. In fact, the folks at my office have called me the Cookie Queen more than once after I brought them goodies made out of this book. Try the brownies, the shortbread and the lemon sour cream cookies. To die for!

I couldn't beleive how good the cookies are in this book. She is so on the money with every single one. The one that really rocks are the Fudgie Wudgies cookies. Every time I make these, people want more. The 1st time i tasted one fresh out of the oven. I thougth the top of my head was going to come off. I can't wait for her to come out with another cook book. I bought her cake cook book aswell. And that is just as good as the cookie cook book.
Thank you so very much for writing these 2 cook books.

still good. The cookie recipes are easy to follow and the results are consistently delicious. I would recommend this book for anyone who enjoys making cookies.

A wealth of easy to follow recipes that don't need a lot of exotic ingredients. A few recipes were far more bland and boring than the author's over excited descriptions, but most produced great results with minimal effort. One more complicated recipe well worth the additional effort is the chocolate souffle brownies. When she says rich, she means rich.

This is such an excellent cookie book that you cant lose the oppportunitie to buy it.
It is full of cookie recipes, lots of cookies, cake cookies, crispy cookies, chewy cookies etc.
You will find a special chapter of holiday cookies and of tidbits that are awesome.

I tried the oatmeal cookies and they were such a hugee hit, they were magnificent with the coconut and the corn syrup that I changed for honey with the same results, I made the Noah's chocolate ones and they were like brownies but in the shape of a cookie and with a crispier and crunchier taste just like a cookie (because that's what is haha xD)
I made also "My new brownie" and in spite of the fact that I have many brownie recipes, I have to say that this one is my favorite, I've made many recipes from here and I haven't had a dissapointment, not a single one yet, I hope that I wont never have one, but something says to me that I wont, because Judy Rosenberg is just an amazing woman that knows exactly how to bake and how to write a book.

I want to thank Judy for this amazing work Its really hard to me to give a recipe that I really like and that I know that is a hit thats why I appreciate this generosity of her and this enthusiastic way of explain every recipe, and even those jokes that she usually make some times in her storys of every recipe, I love those explanations because they make you to know better the recipe and to anticipate the final result that should be awesome.

It doesnt have pictures but that doesn seem to be a big problem because once you make it and it tastes outstanding you wont need those pictures, you only have to read the tittle of the recipe read the story that she tells you, close your eyes , imagine it in your head, and do it, try the recipe as she says and you will have a great result that you will love.


BUY IT!!! YOU WONT BE DISSAPOINTED AT ALL!!!!

This is a great cookbook. I also have Rosie's All-Butter, Fresh Cream, Sugar Packed No Holds Barred Baking Book and I wasn't sure if this would measure up because it is awesome. It holds it's own rather well Lots of great recipes here and I highly recommend it. These recipes are for days when you are throwing the diet out the door. Just bake and enjoy!
