The Cookie Book – Rebecca Firth
October 14, 2018 by JennyRebecca Firth knows cookies. She knows much more than cookies which is evident if you follow her blog Displaced Housewife, but the woman gets brownie points (pun intended) for her showstopping cookie recipes. Her debut cookbook, The Cookie Book: Decadent Bites for Every Occasion is spectacular and a must have for every baker. Two cookie books this season have me excited about holiday baking and her title is one of them – I’ll have a promotion up soon for the second book. Trust me, you need both.
You may think “I have plenty of cookie recipes or books”, but
you would be wrong, so wrong. It’s okay to be wrong. I’m here to
keep you on the straight and narrow. The Cookie
Book is not only beautiful and filled with photographs
that will inspire you, but the recipes are exciting and
interesting.
These sweet treats are unlike any you’ve come across. Chocolate
espresso cream bars, Dark rye midnight cookies, Vanilla bean
thumbprint cookies with dulce de leche, and Peanut butter cup
meringues are calling to be made. Rebecca also shares her version
of classics along with truffles, brownies, blondies and
more.
It is snowing here in Colorado and I am planning to bake one of Rebecca’s recipes tonight or tomorrow. My only issue is that I’m not sure which one because I want to make them all. I’ll report back later this week to keep you all on the edge of your seat. Maybe the Everything chocolate chip cookie below will be the winner!
