if you cook, and I know you at least bake, you should try out America's Test Kitchen recipes. They are the best I've found and I collect cookbooks hehe.

I get the Cook's Illustrated magazine and subscribe to the Cook's Country website. I just picked up the Family Cookbook by them at costco for 21 bucks. I read the whole thing already (not each recipe but most of the tips hehe) and I got it yesterday!

Anyway they dont' have a dedicated cookie cookbook yet, but they have a baking one.

The recipes work, but they also review ingredients, equipment and teach some great techniques.

Thanks Mango girl, the site looks awesome! Hehe..if you saw the amount of printed recipes and cookbooks I have...

Cooking isn't really my thing...I usually nuke my food. When I look at a recipe, I can't even recognize half the ingredients. =P

Baking is more my forte...I'm a pastry chef, but I haven't figured out what I'm going to do with my certification yet, but I try to keep my skills sharp at home with different projects.

I can cook, but my baking is atrocious, well I have a shitty oven too, but it's usually butt ugly whatever I make.

I did fix mgb's mom' godawful oatmeal-flax cake into something edible with a little bit of trial and error! (that one looks the same going in as coming out)
