Sweet Maria's Italian Cookie Tray: A Cookbook

I've been looking for some family cookie favorites that my mom made for us. After her passing the recipes were written in a book that I copied from her recipes. We moved and my book hasn't been found. This book has all our favorites.

If there was a rating higher than 5 stars, this book would get it! Every cookie recipe I have tried has been a hit at family and work functions. And easy!! Simple instruction, readily available everyday ingredients make this cookbook a GREAT stocking stuffer for the holidays. I've owned this book for several years and LOVE IT. Recently purchased another copy for a relative. You will be able to toss the bulky 500+ page cookie book that is probably stored away in a cabinet collecting dust and keep this one right on your counter because I promise - it is all you will need!! I have all of her books and they are ALL worth getting.

This is probably the best and most frequently used cookie cookbook in my collection. The recipes are authentic Italian style cookies similar to what you would find in a good Italian bakery or coming out of grandma's oven. Maria gives interesting little anecdotes with almost every cookie recipe. I have tried almost every cookie in the book and have not been disappointed yet. With the holidays approaching, this is definitely a cookbook worth owning.

This little cookie book is simply wonderful! I just borrowed this book from the library last week for the first time! I made the cinnamon nutmeg cookies and everyone who ate them thought they were very good! This is one cookbook I am definately adding to my collection!

These recipes are for cookies just like my Itlain grandmother use to make. They are authentic, accurate, and great.

THIS BOOK WAS ONE OF THE EASIEST BAKING COOKBOOKS THAT I'VE EVER COME ACROSS. IT WAS VERY SIMPLISTIC. I TRIED ALMOST EVERY RECIPE IN THE BOOK AND WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THE RESULTS AS WAS MY STEP-FATHER WHO IS FROM ITALY. THE BISCOTTI WAS THE BEST!!!!!
