The beloved go-to dessert gets an update forty different ways—from savory sweet Duck Fat and Maple-Bacon versions to the grown-up Boozy Bourbon.

The deliciously adaptable chocolate chip cookie stars in this charming book of more than forty recipes. These formulas yield the perfect cookie for every taste, every time, whether the baker’s druthers are crispy or soft, vegan or gluten-free, or salty or nutty cookies. A baker can never have too many good recipes for a perennial favorite, and Chocolate Chip Cookies riffs on the classics with contemporary flavor profiles such as coconut-sesame and olive oil.

“Forty different ways to enjoy my favorite cookie? Game on . . . More than anything else, this book is just good, clean (sweet!) fun. Jones and Lenzi aren’t trying to reinvent the wheel here—they’re just showing us how much more bling we can add. If you’re also open to venturing beyond your One True Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, then I think you’ll have a grand ol’ time baking your way through this book. After all, the more excuses to eat chocolate chip cookies the better, right?!” —Kitchn

“For the most glamorous chocolate chip cookies ever, whip up a plate or two (or three! Or four!) of olive oil and sea salt cookies from Chefs Carey Jones and Robyn Lenzi.” —InStyle
