Review:

Olivia starts out with the simple- how to heat treat your flour, so your cookie dough is safe to eat, right out of the bowl. From their it is a matter of which dough and flavors your want to make. This is a great book for kids for after school snacks, that can be much healthier than pre-packaged ones! teens especially will love making their own mixes! I love that your can store the dough, as well, so you don't have to eat it the day you make it, but can share with friends the next day. The dough would be fun for birthday parties for take home gifts, or for making at the party! Miss Grace loves the recipes and you will too! It's a fun book for giving and receiving!
