Book Reviews of Betty Crocker's Cooky Book
Book Review: The best cookie cookbook ever...
Summary: 5 Stars
After decades of using this cookbook, and with the pages starting to fall out of it, I finally decided it was time to buy a new copy--and thank heavens a reprint is available. This has some of the best cookie recipes ever and it's like a childhood on spiral bound pages. It's not just that most of the recipes are good, the book is set up so that it's easy to read and use and pictures of the finished product abound. If I could own only one cookie cookbook, this is the one. My faves: Spritz, Ethel's sugar cookies, Snickerdoodles, Butterscotch shortbread, Chocolate nut wafers and the Mexican wedding cakes. And hardly a winter goes buy that i don't make at least one batch of Molasses Crinkles. I can highly recommend this book.Book Review: This has always been my favorite cooky book!
Summary: 5 Stars
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!!Book Review: Remember that cookie that you made long ago...
Summary: 5 Stars
Remember that cookie you made long ago... but you just can't remember where you got the recipe? Most likely you got it from this book.
I had this book while growing up. My mom and I made countless cookies from this book. One of them called for a box of cake mix (which was one of my favorite to make). Years later the book disappear and thought to be lost forever. I could never remember where I got that cookie recipe from.. 'til we found this book amongst my brothers books! There was my recipe: Butter Mix Press Cookies! amongst all the other family favorites: Snickerdoodles, Chocolate Crinkles, Bonbons, and more!
After getting this book you will never need another cooky/cookie book again!!
Book Review: The must have cookbook for every cookie baker!
Summary: 5 Stars
Our family bought this book when it first came out as a gift for our Grandmother. She used it plenty and when the time came the book was given back. Since we received it back in 1982, my twin sister and I have been doing the family baking and this is our number one choice. Many favorites our covered in this book, ours is falling apart from use. How many can say that today about a cookbook? Now in 2008, I am asking for another for Christmas. If a member of your family loves to bake, this is the bible of cookies. To my knowledge not many cookbooks are reprinted due to requests. All the standard favorites are included in this book! You will not be disappointed. To which there are no others.Book Review: most loved cookie book
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought my first copy in 1972 - it has grease stains, dog-eared pages, and copious notes. I've made many of the recipes, and tweaked some to create new ones. One of my favorite things about this book is all the pictures, labeled with the cookie name and page number. Paging through this book is like paging through a photo album, as I remember making the Moravian spice cookies or the coconut butterballs. I was so happy when this was in print again. Each of my four daughters will have a copy, and they will page through it remembering the cookies of their childhood. Another feature is the spiral binding that keeps it flat on the counter as you work. This book is a gem.
