Description

Housewives and bakers of earlier generations cooked up a variety of cookies - some now forgotten. There were hermits, lady fingers, marguerites, jumbles, and wafers to name a few. In this second collection of antique cookie recipes, you’ll find an additional 400 plus old-fashioned cookie receipts. Also scattered throughout the collection are old-fashioned ads, pictures, and advice from the original cookbooks. Whip up a batch of spiced lemon and citron wafers or rose scented bachelor buttons and take a tasty trip back in time.
