Food mavens, experienced bakers, and dessert lovers everywhere have long recongnized Maida Heatter as the "Queen of Desserts." Cooks of all generations will treasure "Maida Heatter"s Cookies," which collects every single cookie recipe from three of Maida"s long-out-of-print cookbooks--including her original James Beard Award--winning volume--for her biggest cookie book ever, with over 220 recipes. And each has been carefully reviewed and updated (when it comes to Maida"s faultless recipes, every change matters).
