This is the ultimate cook book for men and women who like cookies, and for the people who love friends and family enough to bake cookies for them.
A grown-up cookie may be sweet or savory: it may beckon childhood memories but with a touch of sumptuous sophisticaton. Some adult cookies go well with a cup of tea, coffee or chocolate. Others are a match for wine, beer or a cocktail.
The author, who has mixed and tested novel flavor combos for years, has developed hundreds of new cookies. These are her best. But she also tells novice bakers how to go about creating their own unique cookies.
