The Ultimate Minnesota Cookie Book!
A talk and book signing by Lee Dean and Rick Nelson.
Lee Dean and Rick Nelson have made the holidays even brighter by taking 113 of the best cookie recipes from the Star Tribune’s two decades of cookie contests and putting them together into one cookbook
Lee is the former food editor of the Taste section of the Minnesota Star Tribune. Rick Nelson is the restaurant critic and food writer. Together, they have tested, tasted, and edited their way through a multitude of cookie recipes.
They will speak about their experiences and the process of selecting the best recipes each year, then how they determined the best of the best to be included in their latest cookbook.
They will also share tips on how to bake the best cookies possible and speak about the importance of food and memories. There will be ample time for questions.
Join Lee and Rick for cookies, coffee, and conversation. The Ultimate Minnesota Cookie Book will be available for purchase and to have the authors sign it.
