Deceptively simple title for an amazing book!

Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2008

Verified Purchase

The recipes in this book are amazing, and the introduction is very helpful and informative. She tells you flat out to use good quality ingredients, and not to use no/low-fat ingredients - these are meant to be savored and enjoyed. While I like to cook healthy, if you're going to eat a cookie, you might as well make it worth the splurge - just be sure not to eat too many (if you can!). She gives tips with each recipe, that are truly helpful, and even gives suggestions how to give a little variation to the recipe. I am determined to try most of these recipes, but have tried only about 7 so far. Out of those, only 1 didn't work out for me (the malted milk ball cookies), but I overcooked them so it was my fault. The buttermilk choc. chip brownies have become the requested dessert for my father and sister's birthdays (though I have to leave out the pecans since they're both allergic). The butterfinger brownies, caramel surprise cups (amazing out of the oven or warmed in the microwave), and pb cup cookies never last if my brothers find them, and my mom and I also love the chocolate chocolate chip shortbread cookies. The Holy Smokes Cranberry cookies are also amazing! ( I was also surprised to find out in her notes that they are served at a restaurant less than an hour from my parents house). To sum it all up, if you love cookies and chocolate, this book will not disappoint. These recipes run the gamut from the classic toll house cookies to white chocolate chip lemon pucker cookies all the way to cognac apricot rugelach w/mini chips - you're bound to find something different and special for everyone you know.

Wonderful and unique chocolate chip cookie recipes

Wonderful and unique chocolate chip cookie recipes. I love that the book is spiral bound and can lie flat on the counter when in use. The pages are laminated so no worry about splatters in the kitchen. I gave one of these cookbooks as a bridal shower gift along with a cookie jar, and it was a big hit.

This book contaian so many different recipes for chocolate chip cookies. It's wonderful. So far the recipes that I have tried are great. Some are a little too sweet with the full amount of sugar, for my buds. I scale back when baking a batch for myself. Even people with sweet tooth extremes like most of the ladies in my family, like the cookies better without all of the sugar. The flavors come through, it is a highly rewarding chocolaty experience. Enjoy.

Great Book

Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2010

This is an awesome cookbook. The first think that I love about it is that it has pictures for each of the recipes. The second thing I love about it is that it is spiral so that it will sit in a book holder or lay flat on the counter to read the recipes. The next thing is that there are no super difficult recipes in the book, it's all beginner friendly. And the last thing, the recipes are awesome. I have had the Chocolate Chocolate Chip Shortbread cookie which was AWSOME!! I would recommend this to anyone, novice to the expert. Great book!!

I had bought this book as a gift for my daughter, and hinted around until my husband bought it for me. In addition to the extensive number of creative recipes, the "Field Guide" includes hints and annotated notes about each recipe. Most cookbooks do not do this.
It's fun to peruse and use.

I love this book, it has photos of everything in it so you also have a great idea of what everything is supposed to look like. Also all the ideas are great and the instructions are very easy to understand.

A phenomenal & fantastic guide to bake amazing chocolate chip cookies

Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2020

This guide isn't for the faint of heart and it doesn't only contain recipes of what we consider chocolate chip cookies as a drop cookie. This guide has a whole range of cookies like bar cookies, drop cookies, chocolate cookies from ordinary, extravagant and some are extraordinary in their own way. Dede Wilson is a food author in the baking world that compiles time tested recipes of what makes amazing chocolate chip cookies, you can bake and impress your family, and friends at home, or maybe at a baking sale.
I have tried several recipes and they are easy to follow. These cookies are amazing in their own right. Although pictures are black and white, the recipes are easy to follow. Their results are deliciously amazing!
