Book Reviews of Betty Crocker's Cooky BookBook Review: I Couldn't Belive My Eyes . . . ! ! ! Summary: 5 Stars
My mother has this cook book... hers is probably the original 1963 edition. I grew up having wonderful cookies at Chistmas time from this book. I began my own Christmas baking career several years ago, mainly from this book. Our has been used so much that the pages fell apart, and my sister put it all together in scrapbook protective pages. When I saw this re-made version of the original cookbook in a store the other day, I simply couldn't believe it was the same book. I have looked for copies of it for years, and now I can have one, brand new. This is the best Christmas cookie book ever!
Book Review: For cookie monsters Summary: 5 Stars
I originally bought this book as a gift for my mother. I thought she would enjoy it's charm and it's old fashion recipes. then before christmas I went over to write down a few recipes to bake for christmas. I could have been there for days! they all looked simple and good so I bought myself a copy also. after trying several of the recipes I have found that they are mostly simple and delicious. It seems that no matter what combination of ingredients I have in the house when the mood hits I can usually find a recipe to make. Great book ! and my kids love the pictures ,and the cookies too of course!
Book Review: The one and only classic cooky book Summary: 5 Stars
Is cooky really spelled cooky? I have always spelled it "cookie". But who really cares, this book is full of great recipes for both. This book is going onto the third generation in my family. I learned to make cookies as a kid with my my mom's copy, my kids learned from my copy and I have bought this book for each of them as they have moved out of the house. Now I am replacing my own time-worn copy. Lemon bars, ginger almond cookies, chocolate crinkles, Ethel's sugar cookies (I don't know who Ethel is but I love her recipe), snickerdoodles, etc. Buy this book for yourself and your kids.
Book Review: The ABSOLUTE Best Cooky Book Ever! Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best cookie cookbook there is. I have about 200 cookbooks and this is the one that I always come back to when I am looking to bake cookies. It is my favorite, as I am a child of the 60's. I received a copy for a wedding gift over 30 years ago, and it is falling apart. I purchased one for my daughter-in-law, and I will buy a couple of extras for the future brides of my other two sons. The pictures and the recipes bring back so many memories, and someday, I will make the cookie cottage that is pictured in the book. If you only buy one cookie book, make sure it is this one!!!
Book Review: A very welcome trip down Memory Lane Summary: 5 Stars
When my old copy of Betty Crocker's Cooky Book literally started to fall to pieces, I was delighted to discover that it had been reprinted in a facsimile version, and even more thrilled to receive my copy. This book is, indeed, a dead ringer for the original edition, and I'm sure that anyone who remembers the original with fondness or who just has a liking for 50s and 60s vintage cookie recipes will love it as much as I do. I'll be buying another copy of this eventually, so that my daughter, who grew up on these recipes, can have her own copy to take with her when she leaves home.
