Simple recipes that extremely disappointed me but not my boyfriend
By Kathleen San Martino
I had high hopes for this Christmas cookie book but I'm extremely disappointed.
My first mistake is that I did not realize this book was by Betty Crocker before I selected it. This means practically all (about 80%) of the recipes require using one of their products such as:
- Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix
- Betty Crocker chocolate chunk cookie mix
- Betty Crocker peanut butter cookie mix
- Betty Crocker Gluten-Free chocolate chip cookie mix
- Original Bisquick mix
- Bisquick Gluten-Free mix
- various containers of frosting
- etc.
Second, the two recipes I did try were the ones that did not require their product. However, those recipes were not tasty at all. First I made the Raspberry-Pistachio Thumbprints. I followed the recipe precisely. Even though there was a full cup of butter in the recipe, the dough came out crumbly and dry. It was difficult to keep the cookie from falling apart on the cookie sheet. However, they did bake out almost like the picture (all pictures are black and white, by the way) except mine were not as round. I then added the jam after the cookies cooled. I substituted a flavor of jam I would like, which the recipe suggested. However, the only thing good about the cookie was the jam. It had no taste to me and I plan on throwing them out unless I can get my boyfriend to eat them.
Next I made the Cherry-Topped Chocolate Tassies. Once again the dough appeared very dry but it did mold very well. The tassies baked up exactly like the picture. I felt like I was doing surgery to get them out of the mini-cupcake pan because they are very delicate as the recipe says. After they cooled, I tried two. I tried one that was just cooled and another that was refrigerated a while. Once again, I didn't like them. The chocolate filling and cherry was tasty but the dough tasted awful to me just like the dough in the above recipe. They are very pretty though and a bit more eatable. I think I can get my boyfriend to eat these without complaint although I might just eat the innards and throw away that crust.
I was going to give this book one star but I bumped it up to two stars because it's not Betty Crocker's fault that I selected a book that requires brand name store bought products. However, I'm extremely disappointed in the recipes I tried.
The good points of the book are as follows:
- the recipes are easy to make
- most recipes require few ingredients
- the end results are pretty (at least both of mine were)
- there are some good baking tips in the book
- calorie and nutrition information accompanies each recipe
Since I did recieve a pre-release copy of this book, there are a few editing or printing mistakes and one weird example for a cookie book that mentions "3 to 3-1/2 pound whole chicken" in the calculation of nutrition section. In my opinion, they need to use a pastry example for this.
Unfortunately, this book is going into the recycling pile. However, for those who like quick recipes which use brand name ingredients, look pretty, and appeal to those who care least about taste, then this book may be for you. I am use to baking from scratch with the freshest ingredients. Many people have raved about items I've baked previously; however, the two recipes I tried are not the quality I am use to.
Sept 1, 2013 UPDATE: I had my boyfriend try both of the cookies I made and he LOVES them. He gives them 5 stars both for taste and presentation. His favorite was the Raspberry-Pistachio Thumbprints (the ones I absolutely hated) and then the Cherry-Topped Chocolate Tassies (which I also did not like, but liked better than the thumbprints). The cookie part of each one reminds me of the Walker's butter cookies so I asked him if they reminded him of those and he said yes. This explains why I can't stand the cookies and he loves them. The cookie part taste similar to Walkers Pure Butter Shortbread Robert Burns Tin (Assorted), 10.6-Ounce.
Since I had a lot of cookies, I also shared some with another friend who loves Walker's shortbread cookies. She said the Cherry-Topped Chocolate Tassies were too sweet for her and would rate them 3 stars but the Raspberry-Pistachio Thumbprints were 5 stars to her. She also shared the cookies with two other friends and one friend said the following about the thumbprints (and I quote) "Oh my goodness it was to die for!!! May I have the recipe?" She also titled her email to me "Your cookies were amazing!" Since she was not a chocolate person, she did not rate the tassies but the title still says a lot.
In summary, it appears if you like shortbread / butter cookies, you'll like these two recipes at least. Since this is my review and how I liked the cookies and the book, this book is 2 stars to me. However, the other 4 people who tried what I made loved the thumbprints the most and the tassies second and, in my opiniion, these 4 people would have rated this book between 4 to 5 stars had they been the reviewer.
Sept. 8, 2013 Update: Last week I had two other people try these cookies and they absolutely loved them. They especially loved the thumbprints but did say both were good. Therefore, I have not found anyone but me who disliked these cookies.

Some very easy and delicious recipes
By brandilynn7
I ran across this book at my cousin's house. She had just bought it so she could incorporate some fun new recipes into her holiday cookie baking. Thumbing through it, I just loved the pretty pictures and yummy sounding cookies, so I went ahead and purchased one when I was at my local bookstore the following weekend. I have tried out some cookie recipes and not been disappointed. My favorite so far were the Choclate Hazelnut Cookies (it calls for a cup of Nutella- yes please!) What I loved about this cookbook is that many recipes call for packaged cookie mixes as a base- making these cookies simple and afforadable, since the cookie mixes are always on sale around Christmas. I can easily get a batch of cookies done after a long workday when it calls for the cookie mix, since it's simple and quick, so I do enjoy these recipes. Also those recipes that do call for the cookie mixes definitely add enough ingredients to give the cookies a wow factor when finished- whether it be in flavor or in presentation/decoration. Next up for me is some adorable "Jolly snowman faces" cookies for my nephew- also a simple recipe- but with candy decorations that make the cookies fun and eye catching.
So now the negative- the binding of this book is such that pages are going to fall out with prolonged use. I find that to be an issue with many cookbooks- if you lay them flat on the counter to read the recipe eventually the pages start to fall out. Also, you can find many of the recipes (including my favorite Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies) right on the Betty Crocker website, so it's not exactly necessary to buy this book. I have searched a few recipes from this cookbook and actually ALL the ones I have looked for so far have been on there. But it IS a very pretty book (it would make a lovely gift for an avid baker) and many recipes are delicious, so it's definitely not a waste.

Tried and True - Super Easy Too
By A. L. W.
These cookies are excellent any time of the year. What BC has done here is brought us some of their most popular recipes in a more festive theme. Although it says cookies, it's really much much more than that. Included are cupcakes, tassies and bars. I think the bar recipes really shine because there are some really thinking out of the box style recipes. Such as the Baklava Bars. They are not only visually beautiful, but if you enjoy lots of nuts this is delicious. The recipes ues walnuts, but you can easily use pistachio or almonds if you like.
Some of the recipes rely on a BC mix, such as the sugar cookie mix to make it easy for those who want a semi homemade approach. There are also completely by scratch recipes as well. For those with gluten intolerances there are even a few recipes using their gluten free mix as a base. If someone isn't on a gluten free diet, they should still consider the recipe, because many of these gluten free items are just as good and sometimes better than gluten recipes.
There is a color picture for every recipe. Many of the recipes you can make your own as well. The chewy Raspberry Almond Bars are oatmeal based and you can easily swap out the reasberry jam for your favorite flavor. My favorite is the Elegant Almond Bars. However, the almond paste is a bit pricey.
Overall, a beautiful variety of small baked goods, easy enough to make something really good for any event or personal gathering (or just for YOU!)
