America's favorite cookie gets the star treatment with 75 recipes ranging from kid-friendly to all grown up, using every variety imaginable of chocolate chips and chunks. Each cookie is photographed in full color, and the fun field guide format gives the details of each cookie "species” with entries on Type, Description, Field Notes, Lifespan, and Related Species. Special graphic icons show which cookies are good to make with kids, which freeze well, which are quick to make, and more. It's a must-have for chocolate lovers!

one's never too old to learn new ways to improve old skills. for example, I learned how to "design" cookies that look camera-perfect (almost). my book club group loved the batch of Chewy Brownie Chip Drop cookies---a chocolate lover's dream. having a single resource for a certain kind of cookie made easy to choose the perfect cookie recipe.

This is a very good cookie book. Not all recipes are chocolate chip but there are many cookies I have not seen elsewhere.

Very simple to understand. The little icon guides really do help.

I want to bake every, single recipe in this book! Plus it's fun--period.
