Pillsbury: Best Cookies Cookbook: Favorite Recipes from America's Most-Trusted Kitchens

This is a great cook book! The lemon bars are great and they have so many other options I can't wait to make. Definitely a good buy if you like to bake.

This cookbook is loaded with a variety of great tasting easy to make recipes. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes to make cookies but is tired of regular chocolate chips and sugar cookies

Great book that only Pillsbury could release. The old favorites are fun to recreate while newer recipes are fun to try and add to your favorites. Since receiving my copy, I have made two different recipes each weekend, to share with co-workers, family, and friends, that always brings a smile to their faces. Being a former professional baker turned IT person, books like this one allows someone like me to relive my childhood and those special moments baking with grandmothers, mom, and aunts while growing up. Memories are extra special, especially when you can associate a special cookie recipe/memory in your heart. I am fortunate enough to have many to remember every time I bake some cookies from this book or the many others I own. Enjoy a great memory and a cookie to share, just to help a special someone smile again.

I'm so glad I found this book! Every recipe I tried so far has been spectacular and so tasty that it disappeared in a minute!The recipes are laid out really well, with clear step by step instructions and lots of reference "tags" to give more information about ingredients or interesting substitutions or even "make it special" suggestions to dress up your creations.The recipes are really easy, but the results can make people think you spent the whole day in the kitchen. I tried both of the recipes pictured on the cover and they got rave reviews, without being much fuss. And the others were not too difficult either.The book is divided into sections for rolled, dropped, bar cookies and so on, making it easy to find what you feel like making. There are very nice and yummy pictures of many recipes to give you an idea of the results.Maybe the only negative thing is that these recipes are all very rich and not good at all if you are counting calories or have health problems, but I guess you are not supposed to make cookies, if you are on a diet :P! They all have nutritional information, though, so at least you can choose the less "sinful" ones.The sidebars explaining the different ingredients are very informative and can help you with recipes from other books,too, of course.I tried a few recipes from this book and it has already become a favourite! Highly recommended.

I got this book for Christmas and have been baking ever since. Easy to follow, no-fail recipes along with lots of pictures make this a must have for all those who love to bake. I will definitely pass this book along to my kids.
