Pillsbury Best Desserts: More Than 350 Recipes from America's Most-Trusted Kitchen: member book reviews
Queezle_Sister from Salt Lake City, UT
Beautiful to look at, diverse recipes, and according to my mother (who has prepared many of the dishes), most dependable!
This dessert cookbook has chapters devoted to various types of desserts - cakes and frostings, pies and tarts, frozen desserts, and many more. The first chapter, called "dessert basics" is a thorough treatment of ingredients, how to measure, and low-fat and high-altitude tips.
I cooked from my mother's copy of this cookbook. There are many notes in the margins, nearly all reporting excellent success, and my mother considers this one of her most dependable cookbooks. My much smaller sample size attests to the soundness of the recipes.
This is a cook book I'd be happy to own! In addition to the many recipes, the beautiful pictures, and the well laid out instructions, each recipe also has advice for high altitude and nutritional information.
