500 Cookies

There's nothing more appealing than a freshly baked batch of cookies cooling on a rack, and the sweet, sugary smells that fill the kitchen. Since 2005, 500 Cookies has been the go-to cookie book for thousands of home cooks. Now, with a second edition we can proudly carry on with more 500 Cookies. Included are more than 170 new recipes plus a new chapter. Cookies are enjoyed all over the world—from classic American chocolate chip cookies, French tuiles, Italian biscotti and Scottish shortbread to Chinese fortune cookies, Greek Christmas cookies, and German liebkuchen. Making them is easy, but requires precise measurement of ingredients, the right techniques and equipment, and the correct cooking temperature to achieve perfect results. This book—with its invaluable introduction to all the basic cookie-making techniques, followed by 500 clear and easy-to-follow recipes—is the only guide to cookie-making you will ever need.
