 2008-07-16 - Best Cookie Cookbook and I'm not a Martha fan!
Okay, let me start by saying that I am far from being a Martha Stewart fan. I try to avoid anything associated with her.
That being said, I fell in love with this cookbook the minute I picked it up. My Mom happens to like Martha and had the cookbook sitting out.
The book offers a picture for every cookie recipe in the book and who doesn't like pictures. It is well organized into sections by type of cookie. The recipes are clear and concise and very easy to follow.
I've only had a chance to make one cookie recipe so far, but I am looking forward to making several more!
2008-07-15 - Excellent, Easy & Delicious
As an Australian, it is often hard to convert US recipes to our metric system, and have them turn out okay. This was not a problem with Cookies, by Martha Stewart.
I was surprised at the ease of availability of the ingrediants listed in most of the recipes here in Australia. Everything I have baked has turned out perfectly first time - A very rare and surprising occurance at my house, let me assure you!
Overall, this is a bargain book and worth having, even if you only like to look at the pretty pictures, of which this book has many. Buy it, you will not regret it!
2008-07-10 - I love this cookie recipe book!
I've tried out many cookie recipes over the years, and this is hands down the best cookie recipe book I've ever seen.
This book has 175 cookie recipes, ranging from the exotic and beautiful to the old fashioned cookies grandma made. What makes this book really stand out is how simplistic it is. Every cookie is photographed so beautifully you can almost taste it.
When my daughter saw Martha Stewart's Cookies she gasped and ran off to her room with it to read and bookmark every recipe she wanted to try. Next my husband caught sight of the book, and well, you can guess who had a big list of cookies to bake!
My two favorites in this book are the Dried-Cranberry Shortbread Hearts which is really simple to make with only 6 ingredients. I also love the Lime Meltaways.
This cookbook generally calls for very simple basic ingredients and is broken down into chapters by texture, such as light and delicate, soft and chewy, and rich and dense. At the beginning of the book is an 11 page spread showing each and every cookie by name, which is so useful when you want to quickly locate a particular cookie.
If you are looking for classic cookie recipes made the old fashioned way from simple ingredients, I highly recommend this cookie book. Dieters and those looking for low sugar, low carb, or low fat, will have to look elsewhere.
2008-07-05 - well organized
Aside from very good recipes, I particularly like a section in the front where you'll find a photo of each cookie. They are listed by type, i.e. cripy, chewy, etc. It makes it very easy to select a recipe by texture or ingredients. My only regret is that the book is not hardcover, my personal preference for all cookbooks.
 2008-06-18 - Book to break your diet over.
Book is a great "read" - interesting - recipe for crispy choc. chip and soft choc.chip cookies. Made the cover recipe - and loved the taste.
I like how Martha - makes it appear that one can make the cookies by hand...yeah right.
Anyway - great book and a fun one too.
