_Dear Friend_:


Here is our _newest_ and _fullest_ collection of cooky recipes ...
our answer to thousands of requests from homemakers who have learned
that _everybody loves cookies_! We give you many hints, shortcuts,
and tricks that save you time and work ... everything that will make
cooky-baking _so_ easy for you.

In this book you’ll find _every type_ of cooky—all the favorites our
Staff has discovered in our years of testing in the General Mills
kitchens. Testing, of course ... testing and re-testing ... is the
real “success secret” behind all our recipes. Why, we often spend
_weeks_ testing and perfecting just one single recipe! We make the
recipe over and over again, but each time some _one_ change is made
that the Staff feels might improve it. In addition, we try out any
suggestions from our homemaker-testers. Finally, when we’re positive
we’ve got the best possible recipe, we release that recipe to you.

Now before you start to bake, be sure you look at the “how-to-do”
pages immediately following. But you’ll find good help on _every_
page—for we have included _all_ the little secrets for success that
we have been gathering for years! If you follow these suggestions and
our simplified and exact recipes, we know you’ll agree with us that
_cooky-making is fun_!
