Book Description

A veritable cookiepedia to inspire the baker in you every day from a Pillsbury Bake-Off grand-prize winner and founder of the Cookie Madness blog. With The Daily Cookie, there’s no need to wait for an occasion to bake a batch of cookies. Every day is cause to celebrate, whether it’s Elvis’s birthday (Peanut Browned Butter Banana-Bacon Cookies), Day of the Ninja (Chocolate “Ninjabread” Cookies), or Squirrel Appreciation Day (Caramel Nut Bars). While the occasions are sometimes a little offbeat, the recipes are seriously good, with tried-and-true instructions and tips for getting the best results. Best of all, each of the 365 recipes features a full-color photograph of the finished cookie. Whether you like chewy, crispy, chunky, bars, brownies, supereasy (some even no-bake), sweet, salty, savory, or even vegan and gluten-free options, there’s something for everyone every day in The Daily Cookie. “Most of her book’s recipes are homey, true-blue American. But there’s also a smattering of Old World recipes (such as Speculoos and Polish Kolaczki), Latin American specialties (Alfajores and Bones of the Dead Cookies), and treats that can be made gluten-free.” —OregonLive
