Christmas Cookies Galore!!!

I was lookling for a christmas cookie book that had wonderful and diverse cookies to suit many differet palletes, including mine. In this book I have found it. Here there are festive cookies from around the world -- the orient, all of Europe i.e. Italy, France, Germany, Sweden, Austria; many from generations ago here in the good old U.S.A. and others. The recipes are simple and very delicious. You will not be dissapointed when you bite into the many different, taste bud pleasing, treats. Your kids, Family and Friends will thank you for them. Enjoy.

Lots of pics and back stories of each cookie. A couple of new recipes that I had not known about. I purchased it both in book form and Kindle. I travel for a living and work on Naval ships as a Baker so this book comes in handy when I want a reference on International cookies.

Great Cookie Book!

Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2010

Verified Purchase

This book is very complete. The recipes are well organized and the book is put together to be cook-friendly. The spiral binding makes it very easy to see and use the book. Dede Wilson's recipes are an excellent addition to any baker's collection. The recipes are especially great for the Christmas season, but can certainly be used year-round. I really enjoy using this cook book. : )

Great variety without "too much weird"

Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2010

Verified Purchase

One of the issues I find with holiday focused cookbooks is that they want to fill them with exotic strange things that look weird, have difficult methods for creation, or won't likely appeal to a large audience but "look great for a book picture!" . This is NOT that book. This book has a great variety of cookies but stays on track enough to be useful. Great book!

Great gift item. This book was much better than it appeared in the photo and at under $6 bucks it was a great deal. Got it for someone who is a really good baker and she was impressed with the recipes and the quality of the book.

Well...I chose four recipes for my yearly Christmas cookie baking and only two turned out good (after following the instructions to a "T"). I will continue to explore the other recipes and hope that the majority will justify my spending on this book.
