5.0 out of 5 stars
Almost any cookie recipe you could ever want.,
By Joanna Benz "Joanna Benz" (Henderson, NV USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ultimate Cookie Book (Better Homes & Gardens Ultimate) (Paperback)
Better Homes and Gardens cookbooks are always exceptional, and so is the Ultimate Cookie Book. There's a great selection of standards, exotic and fancy cookies, and even some candy recipes like fudge and peanut brittle.
I especially liked the special baking tips and tools guide in the front. They even tell you where to get unusual ingredients like edible cookie glitter. The instructions were quite detailed, and at least half the recipes had nice color photos so you could see the effects of their cookie decorating. There were a couple of specific cookie recipes I was looking for that were not in the book, but they're not in any other cookbook I have seen, either. I wanted a recipe for those gourmet brownie cookies that you can buy in the shopping malls, and a recipe for chocolate cookies with creamy crushed peppermint candy filling for Christmas. Although these were missing, there were still recipes in there that were close. So I could probably improvise and figure out a recipe eventually. Overall, I would say this book is a very good buy.

Great recipes but many are repeats...,
By DH "terrachic" (Burgoon, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Ultimate Cookie Book (Better Homes & Gardens Ultimate) (Paperback)
Basically this book is just an updated version of "Biggest Book of Cookies: 475 All-Time Favorites (Better Homes & Gardens) by Better Homes and Gardens (Plastic Comb - Aug 15, 2003)" which I already had. There are a few new recipes and the color pictures are wonderful but I am glad I just borrowed it from the library. Don't get me wrong, the recipes are great and scrumptious, and a great purchase if you don't own the other. Either book is a very nice gift for your baking friends.
