Summary: One of the best cookie books I own (and I am a cookie junkie
Review: I'm so glad I found this book! Every recipe I tried so far has been spectacular and so tasty that it disappeared in a minute!
The recipes are laid out really well, with clear step by step instructions and lots of reference "tags" to give more information about ingredients or interesting substitutions or even "make it special" suggestions to dress up your creations.
The recipes are really easy, but the results can make people think you spent the whole day in the kitchen. I tried both of the recipes pictured on the cover and they got rave reviews, without being much fuss. And the others were not too difficult either.
The book is divided into sections for rolled, dropped, bar cookies and so on, making it easy to find what you feel like making. There are very nice and yummy pictures of many recipes to give you an idea of the results.
Maybe the only negative thing is that these recipes are all very rich and not good at all if you are counting calories or have health problems, but I guess you are not supposed to make cookies, if you are on a diet :P! They all have nutritional information, though, so at least you can choose the less "sinful" ones.
The sidebars explaining the different ingredients are very informative and can help you with recipes from other books,too, of course.
I tried a few recipes from this book and it has already become a favourite! Highly recommended.
