Summary: Brings Back Great Family Memories
Review: My mother and grandmother have copies of the original 1963 Cooky Book. Every visit to grandma's and every holiday was Cooky Heaven. I'm so glad that they reprinted it and now I have MY OWN COPY! The book contains 450 recipes many neither ever made. I plan to try them all! Heck the photos alone are a delight for the eyes!

The book is spiral bound, which makes it easy to hold your page while you mix your creations from the simple instructions. The baking primer added to help newbies at the beginning of the book is the textbook my mother used to teach me how to bake. Get this book make some wonderful memories with your children and grandchildren!

Summary: Glad it's back in print
Review: My Mother and I used this cooky book for years - mine is well worn and pages are loose. My daughter was excited to see it back in print as she couldn't talk me out of mine.

The recipes are all great - the way Mom used to make them!!!

Summary: This has always been my favorite cooky book!
Review: My mother has made almost EVERY recipe in this book. She has a tattered 1963 copy that has almost 1/2 it's pages sitting loose inside the covers. This is the ONLY cooky book that I use! I was so thrilled to see that it's out in the stores again. I have purchased over one dozen copies for my coworkers for Christmas. It's so nice to have a cooky book that shows pictures of all the cookie recipes. The toffee bars, spritz, thumbprints, cut outs, gingerbread men, gingersnaps, are all excellent. I haven't found a bad recipe yet. It's fun to look at the old pictures with the soda bottles, and milk bottles. Going back to a time and place when times were more simple and innocence was bliss. I highly recommend this book!!

Summary: I Couldn't Belive My Eyes . . . ! ! !
Review: My mother has this cook book... hers is probably the original 1963 edition. I grew up having wonderful cookies at Chistmas time from this book. I began my own Christmas baking career several years ago, mainly from this book. Our has been used so much that the pages fell apart, and my sister put it all together in scrapbook protective pages. When I saw this re-made version of the original cookbook in a store the other day, I simply couldn't believe it was the same book. I have looked for copies of it for years, and now I can have one, brand new.
This is the best Christmas cookie book ever!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best cookie book ever!!!!!!
Review: My mother received this book from my grandmother and we always used it growing up. My sister and I can finally stop arguing over which one of us is going to get it next. The recipes in this book are easy to follow and always turn out great. I highly recommend this book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I loved it as a teen, and I still love it.
Review: My sister gave me this cooky book when I was in my teens. I loved it, and used some recipes over and over and over. When my kids were little, they got hold of it, and eventually I lost it. In addition to the wonderful recipes, it has sentimental significance, as my sister has since passed away. I am SO glad I found this reprint!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best
Review: my very favorite cookbook. mine is worn out from almost 40 years of use. i've probably made half the recipes in it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Remember that cookie that you made long ago...
Review: Remember that cookie you made long ago... but you just can't remember where you got the recipe? Most likely you got it from this book.
I had this book while growing up. My mom and I made countless cookies from this book. One of them called for a box of cake mix (which was one of my favorite to make). Years later the book disappear and thought to be lost forever. I could never remember where I got that cookie recipe from.. 'til we found this book amongst my brothers books! There was my recipe: Butter Mix Press Cookies! amongst all the other family favorites: Snickerdoodles, Chocolate Crinkles, Bonbons, and more!
After getting this book you will never need another cooky/cookie book again!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: At last! Finally! At last!
Review: The Cooky Book should never, ever, EVER be out of print. It's a classic and belongs on the shelf with The Joy of Cooking. When I was a kid, and everyone was poor, we had a friend who baked cookies every Christmas and showed up with a big box for my sister and me. We thought it was the best present we had ever received and waited with bated breath for each year's box. When The Cooky Book was published, there were our favorite recipes: date bars (by far the best recipe I've ever found), Mexican Wedding Cakes/Russian tea cakes, Chocolate Crinkles, Lemon Squares, Snickerdoodles. . . the list goes on and on and on.

So I've put in my order for the children who now have children of their own. With luck, they may start their own traditions.
