About This Book
Whether you are a chocolate chip or an old-fashioned sugar, this is the only cookie book you'll ever need -- from one of the best bakers of all time.
"Cookies are love, the love of making them and the love of sharing them. It is so much looser and easier to bring someone a few cookies than a layer cake or chocolate mousse."
Maida Heatter is one of the most iconic and fondly remembered cookbook authors of all time. Her recipes are modern classics, must-haves in the repertoire of any home baker -- and her cookies are her pièces de résistance. From classics like the minty Palm Beach Brownies and the Absolutely Positively the Best Chocolate Chip Cookies to retro favorites like the elegant Austrian Walnut Crescents and the decadent Fudge Délices, there's a Maida Heatter cookie for every baker and every occasion.
What makes Maida's recipes so special is the promise that each one, if followed to the T, will simply work. Maida makes baking so easy and foolproof that experienced cooks and novices alike will find themselves at home in her recipes -- and have fun in the process.
