Tamra @MaureenMc 😁 You can see this one was appreciated by my mom too! Well worn & the spine is in a fragile state. (edited) 12mo
MaureenMc @Tamra Yes, my Mom‘s was practically falling apart, with cocoa stains on the chocolate crinkles page. 😄 12mo
Tamra @MaureenMc yes - exactly!! 💜 12mo

If you run across this book in a second hand store, take it home! This is a 1963 edition and was my moms - you can see how well loved it‘s been. 💜 (I swap out the shortening for butter. You can tell shortening & margarine were all the rage.)

Teacakes in my near future! 😋

Kristin_Reads My mom gave me hers, but I threw it out while I was in college... I wish I hadn‘t! 4y
MaureenMc My mom had this cookbook. It was well-used and loved! 4y
Tamra @Kristin_Reads oh shoot! I hope you find a well worn copy someday. 4y

1. My mom would use this book every year for homemade Christmas cookies and it was so much fun to help her.
2. I just want the teatime treats from England during Agatha Christie‘s day.
3. Sometimes I‘ll splurge and have some dairy free hot chocolate or some cookies.
#SundayFunday @ozma.of.oz Would anyone else like to play? 🍪🧁

BookmarkTavern Food from Agatha Christie‘s books would be delightful! We‘d just have to double check no one is adding any cyanide. 😉 Thank you for sharing! 4y
Lreads @ozma.of.oz Exactly! And check for mushrooms! 😁 4y

I experimented with freezing chocolate crinkle dough - and it worked! There were 18 to start. There are none now (I shared with the husband and kiddo, I promise!). They were still warm as they were being devoured!

DebinHawaii A classic! My mom gave each of my sisters and nieces a copy of this book and a set of cookie sheets and cooling racks when we each moved out on our own. ❤️📚 8y
Nuwanda My mom has this! I have many fond childhood memories involving this book! 8y
BookNotes @Nuwanda my mom did too! 8y

Suzze I love mine. Made the cookie house with my kids. (not sure if it us in that edition, mine was from the 70's) 8y

LeahBergen @Suzze I'll have to go look and see if it's in this one! 😀 8y

MrBook Love that mixer! Look, @BookBabe ! 8y
LeahBergen @MrBook Why, thank you. 😊 8y
Hobbinol I grew up with the cookie recipes from this book. It has been through a number of reprints, and I grow nostalgic everytime I see the cover. I'm going to have to get a copy too. I'm going to stack it just for old time's (old timer's?) sake. 8y
