Rating:  Summary: Mostly great cookies Review: 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.

Rating:  Summary: So what if I can't zip my pants any more? Review: 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!
Rating:  Summary: Eat the brownies! Review: 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!
Rating:  Summary: The title says it all! Review: 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!
Rating:  Summary: Not as good as her first book but... Review: 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.

Rating:  Summary: Good book, great cookies, bad copy. Review: 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! ;)

Rating:  Summary: Judy made me the Cookie Queen at my office Review: 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!
