Betty Crocker’s Cooky Book (1963) is your ultimate guide to easy-to-follow, nostalgic cookie recipes that never go out of style. This is an original copy my grandmother passed down to me. With over 150 cookie recipes, this vintage cookbook has a cookie for every occasion like classic drop cookies, to festive holiday ones for Valentine’s Day, Easter, Halloween, and Christmas, and treasured Heritage Cookies. In addition, the “Best Cookies” section will walk you through beloved flavors of mid-century America.
What sets this cookbook apart are the charming, whimsical illustrations, and practical baking tips that made it a staple in kitchens across the country. In fact it was actually just re-published this year in 2025 with the original retro look and feel.
Bite into nostalgia with these original vintage recipes for both Mary’s Sugar Cookies, made with sugar and Ethel’s Sugar Cookies, made with confectioners’ sugar. These treats are by far the most widely shared sugar cookie recipe shared across the globe.
