Owner of Sweet Maria's Bakery in Waterbury, CT, Sanchez is the author of several previous cookbooks, including Sweet Maria's Italian Cookie Tray. Her latest is a collection of classic all-American, holiday, and international cookie recipes-some of which appeared in her earlier cookie book. There are other, bigger books that include most, if not all, of these recipes and many others as well, including Tish Boyle's The Good Cookie and Nick Malgieri's Cookies Unlimited.
