#fridayreads: National Cookie Day

 

December 4 is National Cookie Day! As you can see from the photo on the right, a library elf is very excited to share some of her favorite Jessup Library baking books with all of you PVCC cookie monsters.  Simply Sensational Cookies contains over 200 cookie recipes. Read Baked Elements: our 10 favorite ingredients if you're curious about whether your 10 favorite ingredients made the list (there has obviously been a publisher error because broccoli didn't make the list).  Food52 Genius Desserts has recipes collected from cookbook authors, bakers, and chefs. Baking Boot Camp will have you cooking like a professional in five days of basic training. Don't forget to bring your own whisk and spatula when you report for duty.

If you prefer online books we can offer Understanding Baking and Allan Bakes Really Good Treats

Remember, there is no such thing as a bad cookie. Whether you like yours crispy, crumbly, chewy, thick, or thin -- they're all delicious.
