What Others Say
Lacks pictures
It is a good book but it lacks pictures. I would like more pictures for step by step instructions, at least pictures of results etc. Has some pictures put together in two places, not near corresponding recipes. I haven't tried cooking with it, it just got not interesting, not knowing what I am cooking. Some people know what brioche is, some don't.
Awesome.... Great... finger lickin good.
The Cookbook is Great I had flpped through the pages looks awesome inside. when I get some extra time I will sit and read the whole cookbook plus use the recipes... Thank You!
Great Coffee Cakes
I love the indepth explanations of what some may think are the basics of baking. The recipes are easy to understand and follow and the results are as delicious as they promise.
Yum
I love Great Coffee Cakes, Sticky Buns, Muffins & More: 200 Anytime Treats and Special Sweets for Morning to Midnight. I am forever on a search for the perfect crumb cake and I think my quest has finally come to an end. I love this recipe. I have had the book a few weeks and I've already made it a couple of times. The book has lots of homey good recipes for muffins (like the vanilla ones with chocolate chunks...mmmm), cakes, etc. You won't be disappointed.
Fabulous Cookbook for all kinds of desserts
Review by "Retired Geek's Wife": This cookbook is excellent! The directions are clear and well-written, with all the details needed for techniques you may not be familiar with. Each recipe is rated for difficulty, so if you are inexperienced you can start with the "1 cup" recipes. Then, as you build your confidence, move onto the more difficult recipes. The variety of recipes is wonderful and everything I've made has been delicious. The one small problem I've had is on the ingredients list. For example, it will indicate 3 1/4 cups flour in the ingredients list. Then in the detailed directions only 3 cups are used in the mix and the extra 1/4 cup is for the kneading process. It would be better to have it noted in the ingredients list separately. ... Read More
