BOOK REVIEW
The Ultimate Chocolate Cookie Book
by Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough
The Ultimate Chocolate Cookie Book: From Chocolate Melties to Whoopie Pies, Chocolate Biscotti to Black and Whites, With Dozens of Chocolate Chip Cookies and Hundreds More
Can you ever have enough chocolate? Not Likely!
From Whoopie Pies and Mallomars to Rugelach and Chocolate Meringues, the recipes in The Ultimate Chocolate Cookie Book are melt-in-your-mouth
delicious whether you like your cookies chewy, crispy, nutty or fruity. There are more than 90 different recipes and hundreds of variations by
the Ultimate team, all with one thing in common -- chocolate.

Ah, the best of everything chocolate, in a cookie, in one cookbook - it doesn't get any better than this! I can now discard my sorely worn, chocolate and cream covered recipe card for

holds true for many of the other chocolate delights found from cover to cover!
