Notes about Recipes in this book

• Frosted peppermint brownie cookies

    These cookies really spread out for me - definitely not as thick as the picture. They had a good flavour, but were very thin.

• Maple gingersnap cookies

    Another selection made for the party cookie platter. Recipe is really easy and forgiving. I was in a rush and chilled less time, and also put in maple-flavor syrup instead of the real thing. Matthew says these are dangerously good, some of the best cookies ever. They're a lot like the ATK chewy molasses spice cookies that are my favorite, though not as spicy and with a light maple note.

    These cookies were overly sweet and greasy - they left butter tracks on your hand after picking them up! The maple flavour was not really detectable and the cookies spread to become very thin. Would not make these again. This is the second recipe from this magazine I’ve made that calls for 3 tbsp. of dough per cookie, which seems like a very large amount to me.

• Gingerbread cookie bars

    Delicious! Easy to make, soft, chewy, great flavour. You really only need half the frosting the recipe calls for though.
