Pucker up!

I use the lemon drop cookie recipe in this book over and over again. Its wonderful and a real crowd pleaser. It is tedious to cut the cookie log into little bitty cookies, but once made, they are so great to give as gifts, serve to guests or have around the house for that little sweet tidbit. I bought this book new, and its one of my treasured favorites.

I found this book on a clearance rack, but after using it, I would definitely have paid full price. The Mexican wedding cookies are hands down the best I've ever had. I make the chocolate chocolate chip cookies all the time. Using the book requires a little patience because each recipe make hundreds of treeny tiny cookies, although Brooks does give techniques to make it go faster. Complaints about the book: the chocolate chip cookie recipe is oily and gross. Either the proportions are wrong, or pine nuts cannot be substituted for pinon nuts. Many recipes are for pan cookies that you simply cut into teeny tiny squares. Seems like that could be done with any bar cookie. But there are enough winners in the book to make it worthwhile, plus people just love the little cookies. I put them in Chinese food take out boxes lined with tissue to make a great gift.
