Betty Crocker Christmas Cookbook (Betty Crocker Books) this question feed

asked by oden on November 11, 2006 2:06 AM
Betty Crocker's New Christmas Cookbook is a colorful and creative read. At this hectic time of year, cooks can feel safe and secure in the capable hands of Ms. Crocker. Every imaginable Christmas dish is here--cakes, candies, breads, meats, and, thankfully, lots of vegetarian dishes (a group somewhat ignored in many holiday cookbooks). There are also innovative ideas for gift foods and wrapping. Whatever you're aiming for--a huge family feast or a quiet dinner for two--this Christmas book comes highly recommended. --Naomi Gesinger

This is a very beautiful cookbook. I love the photos in it. At the end of the book is recipes you can cook and make for gifts. Toward the front of the book is a "Olive Appetizer Tree" that would be great for parties.

I highly recommend this lovely book.

This book never came....we are still waiting for it. Can't review a book we don't have. We are hoping that Amazon will refund our money...way too much time has passed! We are very disappointed!

Some of my friends give me strange looks for having a "Christmas" cookbook in my kitchen all year round, that is until they sample some of the things that I have made out of it! Many of the cookies in this book lend themselves particularly well to being assembled into food gifts for the holidays.

This extraordinary hardcover book is filled with a variety of crowd-pleasing recipes that are certain to add compliments to your next party. the eight main chapters are:

1. Simple Sippers and Savory Nibbles (AKA drinks and appetizers)
2. Merry Main Dishes (everything from a rib roast to how to roast a goose)
3. Sensational Salads and Sides
4. Fabulous Finales (formal desserts)
5. Holiday Breads
6. Sweet Shop Favorites (cookies and candies)
7. Festive Holiday Fun (more cookies, unsorted recipes, and decorations made of food)
8. Holiday Gifts and Decorations

I think if you'd like to sell this book abroad, you should think "international". Where on earth will I find brownie mix? Or chocolate fudge cake mix?
