[.ca] Betty Crocker's Cooky Book (ISBN 0764566377)

For cookie monsters:
I originally bought this book as a gift for my mother. I thought she would enjoy it's charm and it's old fashion recipes. then before christmas I went over to write down a few recipes to bake for christmas. I could have been there for days! they all looked simple and good so I bought myself a copy also. after trying several of the recipes I have found that they are mostly simple and delicious. It seems that no matter what combination of ingredients I have in the house when the mood hits I can usually find a recipe to make. Great book ! and my kids love the pictures ,and the cookies too of course!

This has always been my favorite cooky book!:
My mother has made almost EVERY recipe in this book. She has a tattered 1963 copy that has almost 1/2 it's pages sitting loose inside the covers. This is the ONLY cooky book that I use! I was so thrilled to see that it's out in the stores again. I have purchased over one dozen copies for my coworkers for Christmas. It's so nice to have a cooky book that shows pictures of all the cookie recipes. The toffee bars, spritz, thumbprints, cut outs, gingerbread men, gingersnaps, are all excellent. I haven't found a bad recipe yet. It's fun to look at the old pictures with the soda bottles, and milk bottles. Going back to a time and place when times were more simple and innocence was bliss. I highly recommend this book!!

The best:
my very favorite cookbook. mine is worn out from almost 40 years of use. i've probably made half the recipes in it.

The Only Cookie Book You Should Own!:
My Grandmother had this cooky cookbook when I was growing up and I have eagerly anticipated a reproduction of this cookbook. I cannot tell you how estatic I was to find it! This book has EVERY recipe you could hope. I'm glad this is a reproduction and not a "updated" version of this classic cooky cookbook. What makes this book absolutely charming is the whimsical pictures and drawings throughout the recipes, reminding us of a wonderful era. Thank you to the publishers for choosing to reproduce this book!!!

Not merely a cooky book - a memory book:
I can't tell you the hours I spent pouring over the pages in this book every year at Christmas time. Some of my fondest childhood memories are of baking cookies from this book with my Mom. My Dad and I are partial to the cream wafers and my aunt Susan says it just wouldn't be Christmas without the Brownie Drops! Austrian Cream cookies are easy and wonderful! I could go on but I won't....I think I need to go make a batch right now! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
