Holiday Cookies Book

“C is for cookie that’s good enough for me.” – Cookie Monster

Let's celebrate the merriest season the best way we know how; baking in the kitchen! A festive celebration of cut, iced, and sandwiched cookies, this is the ultimate cookbook for the holiday cookie connoisseur.

The history of Christmas cookies stretches back to the Middle Ages, when spices like nutmeg, cinnamon and black pepper and dried exotic fruits like citron, apricots and dates were all starting to be used. Along with sugar, lard, and butter, these were prized and expensive delicacies only to be used at the most important times of year. Importantly, cookies were also easy to store and share with friends and neighbors, making them the ideal item to make at Christmas time.

While it's now easier to gather the ingredients for cookies, the tradition of Christmas cookie making continues, and with this book, you'll find over 100 recipes divided into mouthwatering categories, you'll find everything from thumbprint cookies, sandwich cookies, holiday twists perfect for a cookie swap, chocolate decadence and everything in between. With tried-and-tested recipes and beautiful photography as your guide, explore the glorious world of holiday baking from your home kitchen.
