Book Description
Thanks to the careful guidance and boundless creativity of Aaron Morgan, an experienced and talented pastry chef, even the most intimidated cook can achieve spectacular results. Most of these 34 cookies use a simple sugar, shortbread, or gingerbread base, so they’re easy to make. Magnificent color photographs and easy-to-follow instructions will have you piping, dipping, and painting these delicacies in no time at all. For pure indulgence, imagine this: luscious chocolate crowns sitting upon a crunch cookie base, covered in a thin layer of mouthwatering white chocolate. Kids will keep on begging for more of the peanut butter and jelly cookie rolls. With so many wonderful treats to make, the cookie jar will never go empty again.

Awesome Amazing, Aaron does it again.......2004-07-10
I purchased Mr. Morgan's last book (about Gingerbread Houses) and loved it, I couldn't wait to get my hands on his latest creation. As usual his creativity and talent shines through. I enjoy giving these types of books as gifts because my friends and I are not pastry chefs, we are merely mothers who want to make things that taste great, look great, and that can be recreated without the official title of 'pastry chef' after our names. Mr. Morgan's book does all of this. The colors, the pictures, the recipes, a treasure from cover to cover. Hope my friends don't read this, or they'll know what they're getting for Christmas! I HIGHLY recommend this book!!!
Disappointing.......2004-05-13
I was very much looking forward to receiving this book, but was generally disappointed with it. I agree with the reviewer who said the cover was the best part. Many of the cookie decorations were mundane and rather unprofessional looking. This book didn't offer anything innovative or new.
Professional "How-Tos" for Easy, Elegant Cookies.......2004-04-27
This delightful book shows, step-by-step, how to create elegant confections from basic cookie dough. "The Artful Cookie" explains in simple detail, how to prepare four basic dough recipes and four recipes for glaze, ganache and icings. In clear language, Pastry Chef, Aaron Morgan, outlines easy professional techniques, using ordinary ingredients and kitchen utensils to create delectable cookies you'd be proud to serve anywhere for any occasion.
The Artful Cookie is a great present for parents who want to have fun in the kitchen with their children, as well as "the older kid" in all of us. The how-to photos are easy to follow, encouraging use of imagination in creating your very own delectable designs, and the results are downright delicious!
Not very pretty or sophisticated........2004-03-29
I was expecting something more useful. Some of the cookies looked lumpy, and the decorating wasn't of the highest caliber.
The cover is the best part of the book.......2004-03-29
I admit that I am a person who buys cookbooks for the pictures - I love the artistic side of food more than the food itself. I was very disappointed with this book; the only picture that was really worthwhile was the one on the cover. There are a lot of pictures, but nothing too special. The book gives some great advice as to food temperatures for preparing dough, how much to mix it, etc., but the book is not something I would have bought had I found it in the store. I can see more creativity in the bakery at my local grocery store. I'm sure the author is a great chef but I wanted something MORE artful.
As for cookbooks I WOULD recommend, my all-time favorite is the Better Homes and Gardens cookbook - the best recipes are in that one. I also have a cute Star Wars cookbook - "Wookie Cookies and Other Galactic Recipes," or something like that - not that I like Star Wars but there are intersting/humorous pictures. "Cookies - the Little Guides," ISBN 1875137629 has tons of great pictures and recipes, and it's really inexpensive, although the shortbread recipe doesn't work. I also have a soft cover Pillbury miniature pamphlet/mini-mag called "Cookies & Bars" that is wonderful. Try those instead.

Be aware --- this is the same book as .......2006-05-31
Wacky Cakes and Kooky Cookies is the same book - just a reprint. I had both books - as I thought they were different - and then after reading them - and then reading on line about the reprint - I sold for $7.00 this version. There are lots of versions on Amazon and Ebay for under $10. It is a fun book!
Great book for decorating ideas.......2002-10-22
I really have enjoyed this book. I love to make cakes, cookies, and desserts with themes. This book is filled with all sorts of great ideas, and each recipe comes with several pictures. This colorful book features beautiful gingerbread cats, happy sun cookies, and they make shortbread into eye catching flowers. They have many recipes featuring chocolate. Since this book is based out of Great Britian it features many recipes on sponge cakes. It also has a good amount of ideas for holidays. This book is a wonderful source of new ideas.

From The Inside Flap:.......2005-11-02
Jan Johnson works magic with gingerbread.....and now you can too! SWEET DREAMS OF GINGERBREAD will show you how to create 40 eye-catching, taste-tempting gingerbread delights.
You'll find imaginative ways to "dress up" old-fashioned gingerbread boys and girls in sweet winter togs or scumptious fancy dress for extra-special party cookies. And you'll discover that gingerbread cookies come in all shapes and sizes: charming musical instruments, an adorable teddy bear family, spunky cowboys and Indians, and a fairytale prince and princess.
Jann's three-dimensional projects are real show-stoppers - imagine the glorious Royal Castle as the centerpiece at a youngster's birthday party. The classic House is perfect for any occasion, and for variations on the theme there's a miniature Swiss Chalet dripping with snowy white icing and Shaker Saltbox house decorated with pilgrim and pumplin cookies for Thanksgiving.
Gingerbread may become a family tradition at Christmastime, once the candy-covered Gumdrop Express stops at your home on Christmas morning. Make the fabulous three-dimensional Rocking Horse or Christmas Tree centerpiece to decorate your table, and choose from sixteen whimsical cookie designs to decorate your tree.
But there's no need to save gingerbread just for Christmas. Jan had designed projects for Easter, Halloween, and Valentine's Day and plenty more that are suitable for birthday parties, baby showers, or delicious after-school treats.
Every project is photographed in color to show you just how it should look when it's complete. Plenty of full-size patterns make cookie-cutting a breeze, and Jann's illustrations help you through the tricky techniques. Just follow the easy-to-understand instructions and before long you'll be decorating like a pro and creating your own sweet dreams of gingerbread.
