Title: Basic Cookies with a Fancy Twist
Review: My roommates gave me this book for my birthday last year (partially because they knew I'd love it and partially because they were hoping I'd bake every day). I was very excited because the cookies looked simple enough to make, but the pictures showed gorgeous cookies.I have tried quite a few recipes and they aren't as simple as I'd first thought. Many require a fair amount of time and effort, but if you're a true baker, you won't mind the bit of extra work. I also found that many of the recipes only produce 15-20 cookies and with the way my family consumes them, I have doubled many recipes.But what I really love about this cookbook is the variations on classics. There are tons of recipes for chocolate chip cookies depending on your preference, plus shortbreads, double baked cookies and much more. I highly recommend - but not if you're in a hurry.
