I checked this book out prior to the Christmas season and did nothing with it. There are too many special items required to take on the simple task of cooking baking and decorating: cookie slats, pastry bags, decorating tips, paintbrushes, squeeze bottles, sanding sugars in varied colors, dragees in varied sizes and colors....and that's not ALL of it. You also need to produce a cookie that is perfect in shape and coloring, and then work with some adeptness at icing the final product. Way beyond

I should have paid more attention to the title: Decorating Ideas.
You're basically given gingerbread or sugar cookies in different cut outs and how to decorate them. They are beautifully decorated. There's even a little "Easy" sticker on the easier ideas.

Valerie Peterson's and Janice Fryer's Cookie Craft Christmas: Dozens of Decorating Ideas for a Sweet Holiday has a few simple recipes and decorating tips, but gives lots of ideas for Holiday's, Christmas's, and New Year's cookie designs.

As a regular cookbook, I would say "this was ok," but since it's specialty is Christmas, I "liked it."

I didn't get this book from the library in time to actually try out any of the cookies for Christmas but the recipes look good and the cookies are pretty cute. It's definitely good eye candy for bakers and cookie lovers.

Someday when sugar and food dye are found harmless (a girl can wish, huh?), I'm going to make fancy cookies all day long. :-)

Amazing cookies- probably more time & effort than I'm willing to put into an edible item, but so fun to look at!

I'm a writer and a fan of smart writing, clever plot twists and all things procedural — preferably with a bite of humor. Currently finishing my own first novel (which involves several intertwining mysteries and at least two dead bodies), I'm a member of both the Jane Austen Society of America and the Mystery Writers of America.
