Cookies are among the easiest desserts and snacks to make, because they require relatively few ingredients, most of which are in the cupboard already. Bar cookies, drop cookies, molded cookies which are rolled in a ball and placed on a cookie sheet, usually can be mixed and baked quickly.
Cookies also can be elaborate, creatively decorated masterpieces. Children tend to be very creative-and-enthusiastic-when given a tray of cookies to decorate!
The 67 authentic old recipes in this book are delicious reminders of our heritage. Whether you are baking cookies remembered from many years ago, or creating new memories and traditions, these recipes will delight all who share the wonderful aromas and tastes.
