The Gourmet Cookie Book The Single Best Recipe from Each Year 19412009 [Hardcover] Gourmet Magazine Books

Great cookie recipe book. There is some time travel involved while reading recipes. Yes, I actually enjoy reading recipes when I can carve out the time. I've started reading them in bed, like I do my other books, until I fall asleep. I use post-it-notes to mark the recipes I'm making.

The Scotch Oat Crunchies (oatmeal cookie sandwich) recipe from the 1940s is very good. It reminded me of a cookie my grandmother made. After I made the Old-Fashioned Christmas Butter Cookies, I thought they were the very same ones my mom made when I was a kid. They are so good--they melt in your mouth. I have to confess that I used the Chocolate Wafer cookies I made, from the 1950's section, in an Ice Box Cake I put together...delicious. The lemon thins from the 1970's are very good--my daughter could not eat enough according to her. Cloudt's Pecan Treats from the 1980's is fabulous (I love pecan pie, so this is right up my palate). I am a huge biscotti fan, so I very much enjoyed making and eating the Cranberry Pistachio Biscotti. One of my sons enjoyed his with some decaf tea.

The recipes are well laid out and descriptive. Each step you need to take is listed to make a cookie. The type is a little smaller so be prepared to pull out glasses. Some recipes are more advanced than others. The book leaves it up to the reader which one is right for them. The pictures are terrific and very tempting.

These cookies are not just for holidays. I will be baking them year-round.
If you like to bake, and if you like to bake with kids, this is a great book to have. It is also fun to learn some history and share that with others.

TIP the first time you make a recipe; follow it exactly ... do not make substitutions. If it says butter don't substitute oleo & then wonder why it doesn't taste really good.

For small gifts (like a teacher's gift) make drop cookies in muffin tins. Take empty Pringle cans & decorate the outside of the can ... you will be able to slip a dozen cookies into the can. By using the muffin tins, the cookies are exactly the right size & are uniform.

If you want to really know if this book is for you, go to your local library. If they don't have a copy there is always the option of the Inter-Library Loan procedure (books usually take about 3 weeks to arrive). I almost always preview books from the library before purchasing ... it has saved a lot of disappointment.
Read it cover to cover on the day it arrived. A fun little view into Gourmet and American kitchens over the years. The editors give you an insight into how politics (sugar rationing), the economy (some decades "splurged" more than others), immigration (old family recipes), and trends influenced what the readers asked for and the editors chose.

Each recipe has a story, it's original published form, a picture and updated recipe notes for the best outcome.

I bookmarked about 25, but noticed a few more the second time through. Some were new to me, others were classics I wondered if Gourmet could improve on. The real gems were the recipes I had lost over the years and found again here. l

I'm in the process of thinning out my cookbooks, but this one is a keeper.

(the reason for 4, not 5 stars is the book sold as "new" but arrived with scratches and spine broken)
If you love cookies & baking cookies, this cookbook has the "Single Best of the Year" cookie recipes from Gourmet Magazine from 1941-2009. I checked this out from the library & realized I had to own this book. Not only is it beautiful with a large photo of each recipe but the recipes are fantastic. There are some really old fashioned, delicious cookies in here. Some of my favorites are the "Speculass"/1971, "Scotch Oat Crumbles"/1943, "Honey Refrigerator Cookies"/1942 & the "Bourbon Balls/1980. I've baked my way through about half the recipes so far & every single one is wonderful.

The recipes are in order by year. On the left side is the recipe with a description of where it came from & how it ended up in the magazine. On the right side is the full color photo of the baked cookie. The index is organized by ingredients such as "Almond, Anise, Fig", etc., by name of the cookie, type of cookie such as "Bar, Christmas", etc. It is very easy to find a specific cookie.

I ordered my hard cover copy from ebooksweb. It was in excellent condition, as described.
