The Written Review
February's Reading Vlog is out today!
You want to bake a stunning, gorgeous and (above all) delicious cookie? Then you've come to the right book!
Sarah Kieffer is the baking fiend behind "The Vanilla Bean Baking Blog" and she's bundled all that yummy sweetness in one fabulous book!
We start with general baking tips and ingredient tips (i.e. what kind of dairy, oils, flour work best with her recipes + equipment) and from there - the cookies.
Now she splits her cookies into ...more
UPDATED REVIEW
After much deliberation I decided to try one of the classics so here are my chocolate chip cookies!
If there's a thing I love as much as reading is baking, so when I saw this book available on Netgalley the first thing that caught my eye was that mouth watering cover. Then I noticed the title, "100 cookies", and I clicked that "Read now" bottom faster than I would eat a cookie (and I can assure you I eat them fast!).
The book begins with a short introduction about how the author di ...more

This book is for… both those who seek the easy but enchanting and those in the mood for some extravaganza.

This is an amazing collection of cookie recipes!
Last night, my husband and I spent some time picking out a recipe to try. We were both intrigued by the Neopolitan cookies, so Doug purchased the ingredients and made them today (he's the baker in the family). I'm currently on a keto diet, so I only ate one, but they were delicious! I think they would be a favorite at parties and get-togethers. I truly can't wait to try more of these recipes. Er...ahem...have DOUG try more of these recipes.

5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is what a cookbook is supposed to be like!
There is a little something for everyone tucked into these beautiful pages! Tons of gorgeous photos, helpful tips and tricks along with some seriously fantastic sounding recipes. I made the Oatmeal Raisin cookies - my husband’s absolute favorite - and they were delicious! I also loved the Kitchen Sink cookies because there is literally everything in the world that is yummy baked into them.

This was fabulous!
A picture for nearly every recipe (always a check in the plus column!) and so many new treats.
I tried out the Snickerdoodle, shortbread and sugar cookie recipes with tasty success!
I did not have all the ingredients for the créme brulée cheesecake bars so (sadly) that will have to wait till I brave the grocerymart.

I received this ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Its cookies(and more!)! Do you need to know more than that? There are so many good recipes I can´t even choose my top 10! Buy it and try all of them, I definitely recommend it in this quarantine time when all you should be doing is staying home and baking.

I found the subtitle of this book to be ironic (The Baking Book for Every Kitchen...) because I can't use any of the recipes in my kitchen. This will be a fantastic cookie cookbook for people who do not follow special diets, but it is worthless if you are gluten free, vegan, paleo, keto, diabetic, allergic to dairy or eggs, etc. Keiffer offers 100 mouthwatering cookies but they are the very classic types -- white flour, butter, eggs, canola oil, etc. No alternate instructions or substitutions ar

I've been wanting to be the 100th review on this book because it's 100 Cookies and I think I made it. I honestly don't know of more of a workhorse baking book that this; despite how pretty it is, it's bound to get flour and butter stains all over it. The recipes are ridiculous (Lavender Cookies with White Chocolate–Crème Fraîche Glaze, um hello?!) and the photography amazing (I had a really hard time creating some of the marketing assets without getting hungry).

I just received this book today and immediately dug into it. I love the cover. It is very retro and looks like something my mother might have passed down to me. It also includes a ribbon page marker to save your favorite recipe or the one you're currently working on just in case the book closes on you. It is a solid hardcover and I found that the pages generally stayed open to where I left them, but there's always the possibility that a page could turn if you're using a recipe very close to the

Okay, coming clean - I requested Sarah Kieffer’s 100 Cookies: The Baking Book For Every Kitchen because my son loves to bake and I love to eat whatever baked goods are coming out of my kitchen!
I’d say he’s a medium level baker, a big step above a beginner, but far from a pro and this cookbook is perfect for him. The recipes are complex enough that the results truly look and taste like they came from a bakery, but simple enough that I have had most of the ingredients on hand.

As an avid baker and cook book enthusiast, I was really excited to receive this ARC. I love to actually read cookbooks before making any of the recipes and I found this book to be easy to read through. The recipes are clearly written and easy to follow. I've made 4 of the recipes so far and each has been straight forward with great results. I really like the photos in this book as well. To me that is always one of the highlights of a cookbook! It was particularly nice to have my finished product

I am honestly at a loss as to what to say about this one! It's just a most excellent cookbook, full of scrumptious cookie recipes. Beautiful to thumb through with gorgeous photos. A plethora of easy to follow recipes. I mean, it's COOKIES, what more can you ask for!

There’s a very slim chance I’m ever going to say no to a cookbook that features cookies. And I very happy that I didn’t say no to this one.

4 ++ stars.
This is actually more than just a cookbook of cookie recipes as there are also recipes for many other baked treats included and like the title suggests: brownies, bars, etc......which from my point of view is a win-win scenario.

I love the intro to this cookbook, so relate able, I felt connected to the author immediately as I learned to love baking around the same age with the the Betty Crocker Junior Cookbook (I can just see it now). The photos were perfect, as I am such a visual person - a yummy photo means I will want to make it for sure! Most every recipe uses simple, every day ingredients that you probably already have at home, with a few more advanced recipes. There is a chocolate chip cookie for every type of coo

100 Cookies features a collection of mouth watering treats with easy steps and tantalizing photos. The ingredients and recipes are pretty standard but there are a few creative spins such as the Red Wine Cherry Cheesecake Swirl Bars and Chocolate Basil Brownies. And towards the back, there's a whole section for cookies featuring European style butter (which has a higher milk fat content resulting in a creamier texture and richer flavor) as well as a few "extras" including lemon curd, candied coco

Divided into eight sections, Kieffer shows how to make 100 different types of cookies, brownies, and bars. Between the gorgeous photos, the variety of baking techniques, and a combination of classic and unique cookie recipes, this book has a little something for everyone.

I honestly didn’t think that anything could even come close to Dorie Greenspan’s 2016 Dorie’s Cookies, but this treasure from Sarah Kieffer is right up there! Different in tone and style but still full of fantastic food photography, 100 Cookies deserves a spot on the top cookie cookbook shelf. If there is anything “cute” about this cookbook, it is Chapter 6, which explores “pan-banging” cookies—a method of baking and flattening cookies by literally banging the cookie sheet on the oven rack.

When life for the entire universe and planet turns on its end and like everyone else you "have nothing to do" while your place of work is closed and you are in #COVID19 #socialisolation, superspeed readers like me can read 250+ pages/hour, so yes, I have read the book … and many more today. (I have played a zillion games of scrabble, done a zillion crosswords and I AM BORED!!!)

With COVID-19 causing a global pandemic in early 2020, many families are isolated at home. Some are luckier than others, with work arrangements taken care of or modified and no children or study commitments. Others however, are not. With Australian’s running for the baking aisles of supermarkets like it’s doomsday, people all over the country were eager to stay occupied and turn into baking kings and queens. I was lucky enough to already have a pantry stocked of baking supplies so with this book

I'm very thankful to NetGalley and the publisher for granting me an ARC of this book. The review below is entirely my own opinion:
My family and I love, love, LOVE Sarah Kieffer's OG recipe for Pan-Banging Chocolate Chip Cookies. They are bomb diggity delicious! And getting the ARC couldn't have come at a better time!

I mean who doesn’t love a good dessert!!?? I am a sucker for sweets and this cook book has become my guilty pleasure.
Please vote for this book in the GR Choice Awards! It’s one of my favorite cookbooks!

Reading a cookbook the same day as a book on division of household labor... lol ~~balance~~ and cookies! Can’t wait to start pan banging.
Great baking book with fun recipes that are easy to follow and produce fantastic results!
Usually a cake or bread baker by nature, cookies admittedly come third in my choice of baking, so I must admit that this book really got me excited to start baking cookies again. The cover of this book is not only enticing in showing off these delicious looking cookies, but also intriguing enough to make me want to open the pages and read more.

“Cookies are the cornerstone of pastry. But for many of us, they are also at the core of our memories, connecting our palate to our person. Cookies wait for us after school, anxious for little ones to emerge from a bus and race through the door. They fit themselves snugly in boxes, happy to be passed out to neighbors on cold Christmas mornings; trays of them line long tables, mourning the loss of the dearly departed. While fancy cakes and tarts walk the red carpet, their toasted meringue piles, spun sugar, and chocolate curls boasting of rich rewards that often fail to sustain, cookies simply whisper knowingly. Instead of pomp and flash, they offer us warm blankets and cozy slippers. They slip us our favorite book, they know the lines to our favorite movies. They laugh at our jokes, they stay in for the night. They are good friends, they are kind words. They are not jealous, conceited, or proud. They evoke a giving spirit, a generous nature. They beg to be shared, and rejoice in connection. Cookies are home.”
