Cookies to Die ForCookies to die for!
The Complete Guide for Cookie Lovers

“What food brings a smile to a face more than cookies? Pass the milk; I can’t wait to dig in.”
…Michael Symon, Food Network Iron Chef
and owner of Lola & Lolita restaurants

“You are going to love COOKIES to die for! Bev’s flavor combinations are marvelous. Just imagine roasted walnuts and pure maple syrup (Maple Crinkle Squares) and Almond Toffee Crunch Cookies or Butterscotch Candy Shortbread Cookies. You really don’t want to go through another holiday season without COOKIES to die for!”
…Shirley O. Corriher, author of
CookWise and BakeWise

“Cookie monsters, sweet-tooths and venturesome bakers take note: the litany of treats in this inventive collection may make it the last cookbook you need (at least until you have to buy a replacement volume for your dog-eared, butter-stained original).
Readers who overlook Shaffer’s text in their rush to break out the stand mixer will be missing salient (but brief) tips on various cookie styles and avoiding doughy, crumbly or burned cookies, proving this volume’s subtitle is no lie.”
…(Excerpts from) Starred Publisher’s Weekly Online Review

I just want people to bake them and eat them. We're all on the same brownie page here." This great book is full of delicious recipes illustrated by equally beautiful color photography taken by her husband, John Shaffer. If you're tired of brownies originating from mixes or wrappers, try these easy recipes at home!
