Kick off your holiday season with the 2020 We Energies Cookie Book

Milwaukee – The holidays may look a bit different this year, but baking cookies from the We Energies Cookie Book is one tradition we hope you continue. The 2020 Cookie Book features recipes from Wisconsin bakers, caterers and chefs.

This year’s Cookie Book will be available online at 8 a.m., Wednesday, Nov. 4.

The tasty recipes were whipped up from across Wisconsin, from Mom’s Holiday Cookies, courtesy of 2 ½ Cups Cupcakery and Bakeshop in Marshfield, to Waukesha’s The Steaming Cup coffee shop and its Double Chocolate Espresso Cookies.

The delectable cookie on the cover of this year’s book comes from Adija Greer-Smith, owner of Confectionately Yours inside Milwaukee’s Sherman Phoenix development. Her Salted Pecan Bourbon Cookie was inspired by her quest to find new ways to marry interesting flavors together.

“I am just so honored and thankful for this opportunity,” Greer-Smith said. “The book has been a part of my life for over 30 years, and now I get to be in it. It’s just truly an honor.”

Customers can get their copy of the Cookie Book at one of our signature events Nov 14 at Miller Park in Milwaukee or Fox Cities Stadium in Appleton. We also will hand out copies at distribution events across the state through November. Details on all of the events are available at we-energies.com/recipes.

For everyone’s safety, all distribution events, including our signature events, will be drive-thru only. Additional safety measures that align with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19 will be in place. Customers are asked to wear masks when picking up the Cookie Book.

This is the 92nd anniversary of the first We Energies Cookie Book. The first Cookie Book was published in 1928 to promote the use of electric appliances for baking. There have been more than 50 editions of the Cookie Book throughout the years.
