Describe the best gift you ever received or gave:
There is a book called "Mrs. Witty's Ultimate Monster Cookies," now in its 12 edition by Workman Press, featuring 50 different recipes for Big Cookies. The Monster is 6 inches in diameter; the Maxi-Monster is 9 inches, and Ultimates are 12 inches. The book retails for about 8 bucks, and has hints that can make it worth the price.

What made this gift extra-special?
Hand-made with love!

Other comments or suggestions:
I've always thought of Chocolate Chip as the Prima Donna of the Monster Cookies. People of all genders, ages and stages love 'em!

This is always a gift Dad enjoys. Beyond Dad's Day,
We once made a giant chocolate chip cookie as a birthday gift. Since we are getting into the birthday zone where girls may end up with a lifetime supply of hair ornaments and nail polish as gifts, we may have to resurrect the Monster Cookie!
CHOMP! Actually, with the money you save by choosing a kitchen gift, consider giving both cookie and a copy of the book to someone you love.
