Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Everyone loves cookies, and with Betty Crocker, everyone can bake them! From novice to pro, these cookies will fill the bill, whether for holiday treats, bake sales, or every-day energizers, these are the cookies you want, with more than 240 to choose from. Every chapter has a most requested cookie, hot from Betty Crocker's kitchens -- these are the cookies America's been asking for. There is also an entire chapter for kids, as well as tons of super-easy bar cookies -- just pour, bake and enjoy!

And with the "Doughs and Doughnt's" chapter to guide you through the basics, there is no part of cookie baking that will cause you concern. About the only problem you'll have is deciding which cookie to make first Deluxe Chocolate Chip Cookies, No-Roll Sugar Cookies, Mousse Bars, Rocky Road Bars, Walnut Biscotti -- whatever you choose, you'll be a winner.

Amazon.com Review:
Betty Crocker provides more than 250 scrumptious recipe ideas for filling up your cookie jar with chewy cookies, crunchy shortbreads, chocolate brownies--and just about any sweet little number you can sink your teeth into. In true Crocker style, this sugary gem is laid out simply, with basic cooking instructions, giving plenty of tips and hints for creating that perfect recipe. Mouthwatering photographs of Luscious Lemon-Raspberry Bars, Almond Bonbons, Butterscotch Shortbreads, and many more make you want to get that rolling pin out now!

For quick reference, recipes are divided into eight chapters--there are cookies for kids, brownie and bar recipes, hand-shaped and -pressed cookies, rolled cookies, drop cookies, and cookies for special occasions. Happily for cooks in a real hurry, a whole chapter is devoted solely to store-bought mix recipes (Betty Crocker brand, of course). In a few simple steps, ready-made cake mixes can be adapted into delicious cookies. A carrot-cake mix transforms itself into Carrot-Molasses Cookies by simply adding margarine, light molasses, eggs, and nuts, if desired, which is then chilled and baked for eight minutes. Here are fabulous Caramel Fudge Bars, astounding Almond Bars, and perky Peanut Butter-Brickle Chip Bars, all brought to you via the wonder of mix!

Crocker and Co. doesn't forget special diets, either. There is a wonderful selection of wheat-free and egg-free cookies that still manage to taste fabulous. Particularly handsome are the Frosted Banana Bars--containing less fat and cholesterol than regular cookies.

Whatever your forte, Betty Crocker's Cookie Book has a sweet treat in store for you. --Naomi Gesinger
