No, not cookies before dinner! Remember when ‘apps’ meant a small dish you’d eat before your entree? The smart phone revolution has essentially forever redefined the word, with modern food ‘apps’ more aptly referring to hand held computer applications, not tasty morsels pre-meal.
With phones becoming our computers on-the-go, some of the more commonly used food apps have to do with locating restaurants, essentially location-based apps helping out for our in-the-now food needs. Other apps, becoming increasing more popular as cookbooks go the way of dinosaurs, are recipe apps…. allowing today’s home cooks to access a wealth of cooking instruction directly from their phones, in their kitchens, when they’re needed.
One of the newest recipe apps vying for your hand held attention comes from Country Living, a magazine long known for great entertaining recipes. Country Living recently rounded up 50 of the best cookies their writing teams have ever created and bundled them into one bake-tastic app for the iPad, iPhone, and Droid. Yes, yes, they’re holiday recipes, but is it really ever too late for gingerbread, chocolate biscotti or snickerdoodles… these recipes are useful well past December! Keep your Christmas cheer alive all year round with helpful baking tips and cookie-decorating tricks.
