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.
