Book description
Forty cookie recipes from chefs, breweries, and bakeries across the U.S. and suggested beer pairings for each.Whether you’re a baker or a drinker with a baking problem, these pages will provide a series of guideposts for how to put together forty rockin’ cookies—collected from celebrated chefs, bakers, and bakeries across the country—with craft beer. The information provides the building blocks for then experimenting with your own cookie and beer combinations.Each cookie, like Steven Satterfield's Chocolate-Almond, Coconut Macaroons, gets its own specific beer (Avery's Brewery Company’s The Reverend) as well as a general style pairing (a quadrupel). Along the way, Cookies & Beer will teach you how to make your own beer syrup for beer milkshakes, make it a night of Girl Scout cookies and beer, and even how to acquire and bake with spent grain (the by-product of beer brewing). And in the end, when you're ready for it, eight cookie recipes actually made with beer and devised by some of the vanguard craft breweries in the United States, are waiting to be baked. This is Cookies & Beer. And you, are about to be popular.Praise for Cookies & Beer“Jonathan Bender brings together two of my favorite subjects—cookies and beer—by weaving together thoughtful and witty stories and anecdotes with honest-to-goodness great recipes from some of the best bakers in the country. Now excuse me while I go and make another batch of these Chocolate Oatmeal Ale Cookies.” —Erin Patinkin, co-author of Ovenly: Sweet and Salty Recipes from New York's Most Creative Bakery“Beer drinkers and cookie lovers unite! This is a collection of some seriously mouthwatering recipes that are taken to the next level by the perfect beer pairing. From Mexican Hot Chocolate Cookies complimented by smoked porter to beer syrup milkshakes, this book is a delicious celebration of Bender’s love for all things baked and brewed.” —Agatha Kulaga, co-author of Ovenly: Sweet and Salty Recipes from New York's Most Creative Bakery
