Cookie Recipes

The Cookiepedia is the first cookie recipes book highly recommended by the Recipe Book Reviews team. As the name suggests it is a one stop guide to the world of cookies and cookie recipes with over 50 classic cookie recipes and hundreds of alternative toppings suggestions. The author, Stacy Adminando, writes with such enthusiasm about cookies and encourages the reader to try out their own toppings and ingredients for cookies. For example, the everything but the kitchen sink cookies has over 16 alternative mix-ins which includes honey roasted nuts, tortilla chips, toffee bits, wasabi peas and chocolate covered peanuts.

Stacy Adminando is well placed to write this encyclopedia of cookies. She is of Italian American descent and has grown up cooking and eating cookies baked lovingly by her grandmother, mother and sisters. She has taken these easy homemade cookie recipes along with classic cookie recipes and shares them with the reader. This includes her grandma's butter balls recipe. Other family favourites include cornmeal cookies with rosemary, frosted maple pecan cookies and brownies recipes.

The Cookiepedia is written in a relaxed manner and is bound in a spiral notebook effect that aids this informal approach. This notepad style is further enhanced by a really useful notes section after each cookie recipe so that home cooks can write their own suggestions and reminders so that they too will soon have family favourites.

Another joy of this easy cookie recipe book is the tips that Stacy leaves at the end of each cookie recipe such as using a toothpick to test to see if a cookie is baked properly or resting the dough when making Italian biscuits to that the cookies will plump up in the oven. Those who like thick and chewy cookies learn that by chilling the dough for a couple of hours or even overnight they will be rewarded with thick and chewy chocolate chip cookies to enjoy.

This cookie recipes book is useful for those who have been baking for a while and those who are novices to the pleasure of baking cookies for loved ones. Stacy Adminando opens The Cookiepedia with chapters about the range of cookie equipment used by home cooks such as the best brownie pan, sheets and parchment paper. There is a guide to cookie terminology with conversion charts from US to imperial and metric weights and measures. Tricks of the trade include decorating cookies such as piping a design with a pastry bag and icing.

America is the home of the cookie and The Cookiepedia is aimed at the American market and happily reads easily enough to the UK audience. The text and recipes are ever so easy to follow and the language in no way detracts. Readers soon learn that the US call icing frosting and the cups measurements used in the US do make baking much simpler.

More useful advice in this cookie recipe book are the how to eat and serving suggestions. So for the Florentines with chocolate drizzles recipe Stacy suggests adding ice cream to make ice cream sandwiches.

The Cookiepedia really is a jolly book as well as charming and the happy comments by Stacy shows her love for cookies. Who can fail to smile at her introduction to her pistachio butter cookies recipe:

Don't tell the other cookies in this book, but these green beauties may be my hands-down favourite. The recipe practically invented itself on a wintry Sunday morning in my kitchen. Once I had ground the pistachios into a gorgeous olive-oily paste, a dose of the darkest brown sugar seemed like the only appropriate contrast. Flooded with a tongue-happying salty-nutty flavour and plenty of baked-in sugary crystals, the chewy result is borderline indescribable. Okay, I'm stopping now.

Look no further than The Cookiepedia if you want a comprehensive easy cookie recipe book packed full of easy cookies recipes to share with your friends and family. It is ideal for cooks of all experiences with easy homemade cookie recipes that are so simple to make but full of flavour.
