Everyone loves homemade cookies. They're the perfect portable snack or dessert. And nothing else tastes quite as good with a cold glass of milk. Best of all, they're as easy to make as they are delicious.
And delicious they are -- especially when the recipes come from bestselling author Esther "Muffin Lady" Brody.
In The 250 Best Cookie Recipes, you'll find an extraordinary range of cookies that include classic Chocolate Chip Cookies, as well as variations on traditional favorites such as Lemon Shortbread.
Looking for the perfect accompaniment to your next cappuccino? You can't go wrong with Chocolate Walnut and Chocolate Nut Coffee Biscotti.
And for the kids' next birthday party, try Ice Cream Sandwiches -- they're easy and fun to make, and taste great!
As her many fans have discovered, Esther can always be relied upon to find new and unusual approaches to conventional baking. And here you'll find plenty of examples, ranging from the confectionery Cinnamon Pecan Snickerdoodles to savory creations such as Wholesome Cheddar Bran Cookies. You simply won't find recipes like these anywhere else.
If you love to bake (and eat!) cookies, The 250 Best Cookie Recipes is a must-have for your kitchen.

Title: I have been a long-time fan of Esther Brody
Review: I love Esther Brody's books. Nicely laid out. Measurements are in American, British & Australian. Directions are easy to understand. Very few photos, probably around 16. If you are looking for cookie recipes only I would suggest buying her 500 Best Cookies Bars & Squares" cookbook, which has the 250 recipes in this book plus 250 more -- at a lower cost. If you would like an all-purpose Esther Brody book I would suggest purchasing "1500 Best Bars, Cookies, Cakes, Muffins & More" which is a compilation of all of her cookbooksIf you want to know if this book is for you, go to your local library. If they don't have a copy there is always the option of the Inter-Library Loan procedure (books usually take about 3 weeks to arrive). I almost always preview books from the library before purchasing ... it has saved a lot of

Title: Liked it!
Review: I really liked this book! I have most of Esther Brody's recipe books and love them. I think my fave recipe from this book is Dad's favourite chocolate chip cookie - really good. I don't think I've ever had a problem with the outcomes of the recipes but I haven't tried the cookies listed by the previous reviewer. Nice colour pictures of selected cookies and there are tips and helpful hints throughout this, as well as her other books. Easy to follow and there is a great index in the back. Good all around cookie recipe book!

Title: Good Ideas That Don't Work
Review: I received this book as a gift. I can see why it was chosen: there are nice photographs and many interesting cookie recipes. I really could not wait to try them out. Unfortunately, a few recipes I tried did not work. The Valentine Sandwich Cookie recipe yieled a mousse-like batter that just melted in the oven and the Checkerboard Squares batter seemed to be going the same way. I added some flour to help them, but no amount of doctoring could save them. The Spritz cookies worked out really well. But it is hard to tell which recipes will work out.
