A new collection of delicious cookie recipes—all for a good cause

In 2007, Gretchen Holt-Witt set the lofty goal of baking and selling 96,000 cookies during the holidays, all in the name of funding research for pediatric cancer, the #1 killer of kids in the United States and the disease her young son was battling. Armed with the determination of a mom on a mission plus the knowledge that funds for research mean more treatment options, better survival rates, and hope for the future, Holt-Witt succeeded in selling all 96,000 cookies and raising over $400,000 for new pediatric cancer treatments.

Soon after, Gretchen and her husband Larry founded Cookies for Kids' Cancer (cookiesforkidscancer.org), a national nonprofit that inspires people to host bake sales of all sizes, from desktops and porches to entire corporations and communities, with some raising more than $100,000 in a day. Gretchen's first book, Cookies for Kids' Cancer Best Bake Sale Cookbook, raised thousands more for pediatric cancer research. All the Good Cookies gathers a mouthwatering collection of recipes that promise to satisfy any cookie craving, with the author's profits again going to the charity.

Features a wealth of cookie recipes, from Raspberry Thumbprints to Boston Cream Whoopie Pies
All of the author's royalties will benefit the charity Cookies for Kids' Cancer
A follow-up to the successful Cookies for Kids' Cancer Best Bake Sale Cookbook

For anyone who loves baking cookies and making a real difference in the world, Cookies for Kids' Cancer: All the Good Cookies is a perfect way to do both at the same time.

What a great cookbook!

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2013

When I received my cookbook, the first thing I did was read through it from cover to cover. I'm a supporter of Cookies for Kids Cancer, and I was excited and inspired, to read the stories of other bake sale hosts across the country. This is really so much more than a cookbook, it's an inspiration book. There are some delicious, unique recipes, and something for everyone, including gluten free, and doggy biscuit recipes as well! For me the book will serve as a "go-to" book for new recipes - for cookies I've never tried to make, as well as an idea book for my next CFKC event. The absolute BEST part of this cookbook, is that the proceeds will go toward funding a clinical trial for pediatric cancer research. The book is a great price, but you really can't put a price tag on saving a child's life. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this cookbook, AND CFKC!!!!

Wonderful Tribute to Good Cookies Everywhere - and Awesome Recipes to Boot!

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2013

Once again, Gretchen Holt-Witt has put together an amazing set of stories about Good Cookies everywhere, who have worked to pull together events large and small, all in the name of pediatric cancer research. Cookies for Kids' Cancer is a fabulous organization, and I'm excited to try out several of these recipes at the next bake sale! This makes a great gift (along with a OXO Good Grips Good Cookie Spatula, Green ).

A Cookbook to Hold Onto

Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2013

Great recipes! I especially loved the oatmeal raisin cookies -- quick, effortless and delicious (and incidentally, this recipe is flour and lactose free). We're all attracted by food that looks tempting, and there are colorful photographs of the finished cookies for most of the recipes. There is even a section called "seriously chocolate" that lives up to its name. And it's an easy cookbook to use because it opens completely flat, like a notebook.

All the Good Cookies is a thoughtful gift too (maybe along with a few cookies?) since the book is a money-raiser for cancer research. Along with the recipes there are heart-warming stories about bake sales held for Cookies for Kids' Cancer, and good tips for holding a bake sale that is successful.

This is more than a good cookbook!

Not only is this book full of recipes for delicious cookies, it has a very important recipe to join in the fight against pediatric cancer. Cookies for Kids Cancer was founded Gretchen and her husband, Larry , to provide much needed funding for pediatric cancer research. All author profits go to this amazing organization.
The photographs are beautiful and the recipes are easy. There are good ideas for holding bakes sales which is the way to get involved to raise money for pediatric cancer research. I have to do some baking for a Cookies for Kids Cancer Bakesale this weekend in a friend's front yard and I will be using the recipes and ideas!! Please buy this book and help support our children that are fighting cancer.....they need better medicines so that they can live to bake cookies for their children.

I purchased three of these books for my daughter and daughter-in-laws for Christmas. Being a two time cancer survivor myself, I think it's important to support any project associated with cancer. The recipes are wonderful and the stories within the book will move anyone to tears. I can't imagine losing a child and then turning your sorrow into a project that helps others fight cancer is outstanding. Great recipes and great cause.

Yummy recipes raising money for a great cause

I collect recipe books, so buying this book is something I would do anyway, BUT the story behind the creation of this book and the personal stories inside makes this purchase that much more special! Some of the recipes have familiar names but the actual recipe may be a variation you haven't tried before. And,
SUPPORT RESEARCH FOR CHILDHOOD CANCERS!

Really good cookies

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2013

Verified Purchase

I've only made the oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, and they are excellent. I cut the recipe in half, since i did not need 5 dozen. Some of the other recipes are also for very large batches of cookies, but this would be great for a bake sale. This book has pictures of most of the cookies, which I like very much. The recipes are quite varied, from easy to difficult and many different flavors. Most of them use very common ingredients from the grocery store.

Feeling Good Twice Over!

Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2013

In preparing a "benefit basket" for my Secret Santa gift this year, I included the purchase of this book, since the proceeds went to the Childrens Cancer benefit, and let me tell you, once the book arrived and I checked out the recipes - it is truly a very nice book. I am so glad that I have purchased it - it will make a nice addition to my other gifts that also benefit a charity.

Great recipes for a great cause!

Great recipes for a great cause we can all relate to, which adds value to the book and removes calories from the cookies! Recipes are interspersed with stories of kids who've fought cancer and their families and friends.
