Customer Rating:      Summary: A mexican review Comment: Good recipes, easy to follow instructions and very nice pictures. Of course it's a Better Crocker!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Betty Crocker's Christmas Cookbook Comment: Wonderful book full of great recipes. My friends especially enjoyed the Hot Crab Dip on page 37. I'm looking forward to trying many others.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A Tried and True Cookbook for the holidays Comment: I grew up with Betty Crocker cookbooks. Unlike some of the lesser known cookbooks, I never came across a less than great recipe or one that should have perhaps been tested more carefully. When you use a Betty Crocker cookbook you can be confident that each recipe will turn out just fine.
And for the holidays, The Betty Crocker Christmas Cookbook is the perfect book to use for both family and entertaining cooking and baking.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Using it a lot Comment: I got this book off amazon not too long ago after I had checked it out at the library and really liked it. The pictures are great. I tried the easy tiramisu dessert- but I made a few substitutions. Don't. It wasn't that great, could be better as the original. The minty middle treasures didn't look anything like the picture. Didn't taste as good as I was hoping, either. My sister made the swedish nuts and liked it. I'll be making the peppermint bon bon brownies and the peppermint swirled cookies. There are just so many to try. Another con is that if you're looking for lighter recipes, this isn't the book. I'm on a small weight loss quest, and these are really fatty and sugary desserts. That's what makes them taste good, though.
Today my sister and I tried to make the Christmas Cottages with graham crackers, and it didn't work. The directions seem silly- they say dip the edges of the cracker in the frosting and it doesn't work. Also graham crackers aren't necessarily level, they have a little bend to them, so the don't stand together well. It's also really hard to cut a graham cracker- we kept breaking them trying to make the peak on the roof.
At any rate, I haven't tried even half of the things I want to yet, so... I still love the book. I haven't even experimented with the main meal recipes yet but looking forward to it. (It takes a lot longer to get through leftovers when it's only my husband and I trying to finish off the experiments.)
Customer Rating:      Summary: Best Gingersnap Recipe Ever Comment: There is a Gingersnap cookie recipe in this book that is amazing. I make them every holiday season for family and friends and everyone LOVES them and looks forward to eating them year-round. Highly recommended for the Gingersnaps alone!
