From the Publisher'Tis the season to make cookies, and 'tis the job of the Christmas Cookie Deck to make the baking both convenient and fun. Pop this deck into someone's stocking and hope it's a gift that keeps on giving in the form of treats for you. Each card offers a recipe for a different holiday sweet and a photo of the finished confection, with 50 recipes in all. Your giftee can whip up a globe-trotting assortment Viennese marzipan bells, Scottish coriander shortbread stars, Norwegian lace cookies or focus on a single ingredient, such as ginger or chocolate. When the sturdy cards get covered in flour fingerprints, he or she can easily wipe them off, and the box that holds them guarantees there will be no need to turn the kitchen upside down looking for a recipe.
