Chocolate Midnight Cookies Recipe

September 21, 2011 by Momstart 32 Comments

The other night my husband made cookies for me. Oh he’s a wonderful man that loves me so much because not only did he bake the cookies from a cook book that I needed to do a review. The new Entenmann’s Big Book Of Baking is a comprehensive collection of mouth-watering baked goods recipes. Each page has a full color photo of the recipe and I want to cook myself through the entire book.

The collection of over 140 recipes includes those reminiscent of favorite Entenmann’s classics along with an assortment of new ideas, providing the perfect recipe for every occasion. Focusing on fresh ingredients and simple preparation, Entenmann’s Big Book of Baking makes it easy for bakers of all levels to create Entenmann’s classic baked goods with a homespun touch. I’m loving it! Here is my husband’s first go!
