Product Description:
More than a cookbook, Christmas Cookies Are for Giving is a celebration of family, friends and the joy of giving. Stories, recipes, tips and more...

Smells of cinnamon...cookie cutters...rolling and baking...eating dough...warm times with friends and family...Christmas cookies are a universal symbol of sweetness and family tradition at Christmas. But the joy of Christmas cookies goes beyond eating. In Christmas Cookies Are for Giving, Kristin Johnson and Mimi Cummins reawaken the fun of giving Christmas cookies, as they remember doing when they lived next door to each other when young children.

From the original short story "The Giving Christmas Cookie," which shows a family brought together by a special cookie recipe at Christmas, to nearly 50 scrumptious recipes with mouth watering photos, to the timely, easy directions for making homemade "Gifts in a Jar," Christmas Cookies Are for Giving shows that old-fashioned Christmas gifts are an antidote to cynicism about Christmas. The secret to celebrating your family and friends may not be in the mall, but in your pantry where you’ll find the ingredients to make Butterball Santas, Cranberry Decadent Cookies, and Vanillekipferl—The Giving Christmas Cookie.

Give this book as a present, and you may be rewarded when someone you love bakes the goodies in this book for you.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best Holiday Cookie Book!
Love the book with the easy and fun recipes. I received tons of compliments from friends about the cookies I made using the recipes from this book. Must have for people who enjoy cookie exchanges.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - More than just a recipe book, almost a love story
It starts with a story how the book and why the book was written, like I say almost a love story, it gives great recipes, ways to ship the cookies, and how others have had the gift of making cookies with family members wonderfull memories. Loved the book



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't waste your money!
What a disappointment! This book contains a few basic recipes, which are padded with recipes for everything from yeast bread to quick bread (with no explanation of what they're doing in a cookie book) and cookie recipes from various marketing boards. There are awesome cookie books on the market (and available from Amazon); even Betty Crocker's would be better than this -- and, for about the same price, you can get Judy Rosenberg's wonderful, detailed, book of awesome TNT cookies. Don't waste your money on this one!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A mouth-watering collection of holiday cookies
The collaborative effort of Kristin Johnson and Mimi Cummins, Christmas Cookies Are For Giving: Recipes, Stories And Tips For Making Heartwarming Gifts is the perfect Christmas season cookie compendium that will prove to be a family favorite all the year round. A mouth-watering collection of holiday cookies, Christmas candies, and yuletide snacks, each cookie is enhanced with a full-color photo. In addition to the easy-to-make recipes, kitchen cooks are also provided with tips for baking, storing, giving, and shipping these fragile and delicious treats. From Buttery Pecan Tartletts; Zinger Lemon Bars; and Scottish Shortbread; to Cranberry Decadent Cookies; Hazelnut Cappuccino Cookies; and Butterball Santas, Christmas Cookies Are For Giving is an enthusiastically recommended addition to any family-friendly cookbook collection.
