Cookie Swap! is a fun and well curated collection of cookie recipes by Lauren Chattman. Released 8th Oct 2024 by Hachette on their Workman Publishing imprint, it's 248 pages and is available in hardcover and ebook formats. It's worth noting that the ebook format
has a handy interactive table of
contents as well as interactive links and references throughout.
This book really does have it all. There are cookies which are
familiar and beloved of everyone - so it gets an A+ on completeness (a solid book). There are classics both easy and challenging for
all occasions (mostly tending toward the easy end of the spectrum).The yields are generous and all of them are suitable/adaptable for gifting and sharing. The author has even included a primer for arranging a swap along with some "etiquette" suggestions. There are drop cookies, bars, shaped, and pretty much everything in between.
The photography is superb. This is a classic and comprehensive collection and will be a perennial go-to for both holiday and everyday uses. Five stars.
