Cookies by the Dozen: Over 75 Irresistible Recipes for Just a Dozen Cookies Each

I have owned this book for a long time, and I go back to it again and again. It is wonderful to be able to try so many recipes without then having 100 cookies. It is a perfect book for making a cookie platter--you can make many kinds and fit them on one big plate! The best things about the book are that there are a wide variety of recipes and that all of them are fabulous. Her chocolate chip cookie recipe is the best in the world.

I'm single, I have this cookbook, and I love it. A batch a week keeps me comfortably in sweets, without blowing my diet. It is essential for anyone who enjoys cookies, but doesn't need enough for a crowd. Now my brother wants a copy for Christmas...Reprint!

Apparently Cookies by the Dozen is out of print and this is too bad for all of us who want to make homemade cookies but have neither the time nor money to prepare 50 or more from a standard recipe. This concept is a great idea for baby boomers, grandmothers who have their grandchildren over to make cookies for dessert or a snack, for couples, for small families, for everyone who desires the pleasures, flavors, and aromas associated with making homemade cookies and who do not have all day to devote to doing it. This book is so wonderful, the recipes so easy and practical that I would hope Warner Books would get in touch with the author to add more recipes and they would reissue it--and soon.

The clear and concise recipes in this book make baking a wide range of cookies easy and fun. The author's notes about each recipe are interesting and informative. The best part about the book is the concept of making just a few cookies for those of us who don't need three dozen at one time. The oatmeal raisins are my favorite!

This cookbook is great. Every recipe I have tried has turned out wonderfully, and the chewy chocolate chip cookies are truly the best I have ever tasted. The small recipe yield is really good for when you don't have a lot of ingredients, but you want to make something tasty right now.
