Book Description:
The perfect cookie for every occasion.

Cookies are the treat that never disappoints. Whether you'’re baking for a party or a picnic, a formal dinner or a family supper–or if you simply want something on hand for snacking - –there is a cookie that'’s just right. In Martha Stewart'’s Cookies, the editors of Martha Stewart Living give you 175 recipes and variations that showcase all kinds of flavors and fancies. Besides perennial pleasers like traditional chocolate chip and oatmeal raisin, there are other sweet surprises, including Rum Raisin Shortbread, Peppermint Meringue Sandwiches with Chocolate Filling, and Lime Meltaways.

Cleverly organized by texture, the recipes in Martha Stewart’'s Cookies inspire you to think of a classic, nostalgic treat with more nuance. Chapters include all types of treasures:
Light and Delicate (Cherry Tuiles, Hazelnut Cookies, Chocolate Meringues); Rich and Dense (Key Lime Bars, Chocolate Mint Sandwiches, Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies); Chunky and Nutty (Magic Blondies, Turtle Brownies, White Chocolate-Chunk Cookies); Soft and Chewy (Snickerdoodles, Fig Bars, Chewy Chocolate Gingerbread Cookies); Crisp and Crunchy (ANZAC Biscuits, Chocolate Pistachio Biscotti, Almond Spice Wafers); Crumbly and Sandy (Cappuccino-Chocolate Bites, Maple-Pecan Shortbread, Lemon-Apricot Sandwiches); and Cakey and Tender (Lemon Madeleines, Carrot Cake Cookies, Pumpkin Cookies with Brown-Butter Icing).

Each tantalizing recipe is accompanied by a lush, full-color photograph, so you never have to wonder how the cookie will look. Beautifully designed and a joy to read, Martha Stewart’'s Cookies is rich with helpful tips and techniques for baking, decorating, and storing, as well as lovely gift-packaging ideas in standout Martha Stewart style.

This book is a tasty treat to look at. Each recipe has a full color page devoted to a close up picture of the cookie being baked. The first few pages of the book are also full color pictures of all the cookies that can be made at a quick glance. And these cookie recipes are not your ordinary recipes. Each one is very unique in it's look and ingredients. The recipes are not hard to make at all. Some of the recipes are "Chocolate Mint Sandwiches", "Cream Cheese Swirl Blondies", "Candy Stripe Cookie Sticks", and "Hazelnut Cookies". There are 175 recipes and their pictures in this book.
