The AGELESS FAVORITES: A Collection of Recipes cookbook compiles recipes from family, friends and residents of Maple Knoll Village, Cincinnati, Ohio, a community with a longstanding history of over 170 years.

The 176-page cookbook is filled with recipes that range from Hot Pecan Dip, Bourbon Slush, Heavenly Hash, Coney Island Sauce, Goetta, Peach & Blueberry Cobbler, Coca Cola Cake, Putanesca Sauce, Philadelphia Soft Pretzels, and more. The person's name who submitted is printed with the recipe.

The hard cover comb-bound cookbook is in very good condition.

Community cookbooks are more than just recipe collections; they offer a unique look into American society and culture of the past...

Originally created and used by women's groups for charitable purposes, these cookbooks contain valuable information on cooking techniques, kitchen tools, and household advice. They also serve as unofficial historical records, providing insight into the norms and values of the time period.

The first of these charity cookbooks in America, A Poetical Cookbook by Maria J. Moss, was published in 1864 to raise funds for injured Union soldiers during the Civil War.

Today, community cookbooks continue to be successful fundraisers for Junior Leagues, church groups, school organizations, hospital auxiliaries and other charitable groups across the country.
