Fast, easy, delicious deals with desserts at the front.
In 2020, when the world was hit with a pandemic, Elise Thomas used her own small kitchen oven to begin baking her signature gourmet cookies. Selling them first out of her garage, her business quickly skyrocketed into a successful chain of bakeries—Cookie Co.—and earned her the nickname "the cookie lady."
Now, in her debut cookbook, Elise shares not only the delectable baked goods she is famous for but also the fast, easy, and delicious meals that have become staples for her own busy family.
Whether you're looking for something sweet, such as French Toast Roll Ups or Oreo-Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies, or something more savory, such as Creamy Bolognese with Angel Hair Pasta or Beef and Biscuit Pot Pie, Elise's recipes are both simple and flavorful and focus on ingredients most people already have in their pantry. This fun approach to food features full-color, original photography of each dish and highlighted "Kid Favorites."

      Prompted by COVID to begin baking and selling cookies from her home kitchen, Thomas turned her small start-up business into the flourishing Cookie Co. franchise. Now, like a next-gen Debbi Fields, Thomas wants to share the recipes that earned her the nickname "Cookie Lady." Opening with sweet treats, including chocolate chip, sugar, and Oreo cookies that became the foundation of her business, Thomas then branches out with savory recipes for breads, soups, and more. Dishes range from tater tot casserole to Thomas's Thanksgiving strawberry pretzel salad. Those in search of fresh twists on classic dishes and innovative culinary challenges will need to look elsewhere, as Thomas sticks to her version of tried and true recipes. But her easy-to-grasp recipe formatting and cheery prose style will especially encourage those new to cooking to give her dishes a try. VERDICT Thomas's debut cookbook is a simple yet satisfying collection of recipes tailor-made for fans of the Cookie Co. franchise.--John Charles
