Mrs. Fields Best Ever Cookie Book!

This is a good cookbook. But I received this copy in error and was told that I need to donate it. It was their mistake. Why shouldn't I get the one I ordered

I love this cookie book. It has my very favorite cookie recipe on page 15, Malted Milk Cookies. Mmmmm. Whenever I am invited to a wedding, if the couple is registered for baking items, like cookie sheets, this is what I get them along with a copy of this book and a reference to page 15. The other reason I love this book is because starting when my son was around four years old, we'd sit on the couch with it and pick out cookies that we wanted to bake based on the photographs. Of course, the downside is that kids love repetition and it was almost always the Blue Ribbon Chocolate Chip Cookies (he never picked the malted milk ones). As mentioned in another review, the recipes are each on one page so you don't have to worry about turning the page which can be quite annoying, particularly when you have your cook book in a plexi-glass holder, and the type is big so with this book, I don't have to search for my reading glasses to find out the next step in the recipe.

I love this cookie book it has been a life saver for me. I have been baking for years and I find myself reaching for this book the most. You at times may have to add more flour or more of something but like ever good baker knows the weather play's a part in that and other things. I have baked for so many different people and everyone thinks I brought these for a store. A most have.

This book has the most wonderful pictures of cookies ever! I love being able to see what the cookie will look like, some folks can tell from a recipe, but I need the visual!Also, the recipes are very good. BUT they use a TON of butter. This is NOT for folks who watch their butter intake. (Fat tastes good?)The recipes are easy to follow, the results are great.The choices of types of cookies is okay, but it doesn't have all of the basics.. they must be in one of the earlier books.
