For baking perfect cookies

Cookie Swap: Creative Treats to Share Throughout the Year
By Julia M. Usher, Photos by Steve Adams
Gibbs Smith, $24.95

Who’ll love this book: Novice to intermediate bakers (and their appreciative friends and loved ones!)

Why: From Christmas delights to garden party treats, wedding favours to kid-friendly Halloween projects, this book’s got all your cookie/bar/nugget/biscotti/wafer needs covered. Recipes are presented within complete tabletop themes, so you can pick and choose how involved you want to get with your next baking session.

Sample wisdom: If your baking sheets have sides, flip the sheet over and spoon dough onto the back. Cookies will bake more evenly, not to mention slide off the sheet easier when done!
