Betty Crocker provides more than 250 scrumptious recipe ideas for filling up your cookie jar with chewy cookies, crunchy shortbreads, chocolate brownies--and just about any sweet little number you can sink your teeth into. In true Crocker style, this sugary gem is laid out simply, with basic cooking instructions, giving plenty of tips and hints for creating that perfect recipe. Mouthwatering photographs of Luscious Lemon-Raspberry Bars, Almond Bonbons, Butterscotch Shortbreads, and many more make you want to get that rolling pin out now!
For quick reference, recipes are divided into eight chapters--there are cookies for kids, brownie and bar recipes, hand-shaped and -pressed cookies, rolled cookies, drop cookies, and cookies for special occasions. Happily for cooks in a real hurry, a whole chapter is devoted solely to store-bought mix recipes (Betty Crocker brand, of course). In a few simple steps, ready-made cake mixes can be adapted into delicious cookies. A carrot-cake mix transforms itself into Carrot-Molasses Cookies by simply adding margarine, light molasses, eggs, and nuts, if desired, which is then chilled and baked for eight minutes. Here are fabulous Caramel Fudge Bars, astounding Almond Bars, and perky Peanut Butter-Brickle Chip Bars, all brought to you via the wonder of mix!
Crocker and Co. doesn't forget special diets, either. There is a wonderful selection of wheat-free and egg-free cookies that still manage to taste fabulous. Particularly handsome are the Frosted Banana Bars--containing less fat and cholesterol than regular cookies.
Whatever your forte, Betty Crocker's Cookie Book has a sweet treat in store for you. --Naomi Gesinger

sweet satisfaction.......2007-01-17
This cookbook is great and the recipies are really easy to follow. The Turtle Cake is awsome. I am looking forward to trying each recipie, specially the holiday cakes.
Great for no fuss baking.......2007-01-10
I received this book as a gift and absolutely love it. It makes baking simple and uncomplicated. Baking from scratch is good for some but most of us do not have that kind of time. This book allows for great tasting and great looking desserts such that no one would guess you took a shortcut.
Betty Crocker cake mix cookbook.......2006-09-20
This is an excellent book as the instructions are written in a clear concise format. Recipes include a variety of desserts--cakes, cookies, breads, and special occasion cakes for birthday, Christmas, and other holidays. Even the novice cook would benefit from this cookbook as I believe these are "never fail" recipes which is a good boost to the beginning baker! Tips are also given at the beginning of the book to make sure the baker has all the information he/she needs as well as a consumer Q & A section is given.
Cake Mix Doctor MUCH Better!.......2006-08-07
Many of these recipes are -follow the instructions on the box- and do something cute with the finished product: cut in pieces and make a bunny cake,a sailboat cake, a butterfly cake, a computer cake, etc., or add food coloring and make a rainbow cake. I was expecting more RECIPES.
Fun for Families.......2005-11-01
If you are relatively new to cake decorating, or want to make something a bit unusual for your family, this book would be a useful tool. It features cake recipes for use with boxed mixes, recipes for frostings and glazes, and recipes for cookies, pies, cheesecakes, and other desserts, as well as some decorating ideas.
I would rate the decorating ideas in the neighborhood of the Family Fun cake decorating book. They are not amazingly difficult or complicated, and they don't require a lot of special tools. Some of my favorites are the 3D sand castle cake, reindeer cupcakes, and ballet slippers carved from a sheet cake. There aren't any fondant designs; most use frosting and/or other edible accents. If you are used to looking at the Wilton yearbooks for decorating ideas, this book is some relief, because it shows you ways to carve and shape cakes without purchasing a bunch of specialized pans. One down side is that several of the cake designs described in the book do not include photographs. Another is that only two sections of the book are dedicated to decorated cakes--the others are more traditional, with mostly frosting or glaze coverings and possibly some fruit or nuts for garnish.
The recipes are great for their sheer variety. Sections include Bake and Take (my favorite here is the S'mores cake), Wonderfully Indulgent (I want to try the Peanut Butter Silk and French Silk Hazelnut cakes), Special Celebrations, Heavenly Holidays (the candy cane cake is a cute idea), Come for Brunch, Scrumptious Desserts (includes cheesecakes, tarts, and baked Alaska cake), Cookies and Bars, and Frostings and Glazes.
I think cake mixes can be a great foundation for delicious cakes, but some of the recipes I've tried from this book haven't been too exceptional. The chocolate turtle cake was only okay, and the cherry-chocolate chip cake wasn't as good as I'd hoped, either.
Still, this book has a lot to offer. The add-in ingredients aren't difficult to find, there are recipes for a variety of tastes (mandarin orange to grasshopper fudge to caramel carrot to lemonade cakes), and cakes appropriate for diverse occasions.
I liked the tips for each recipe that suggest variations, and the diagrams for assembling shaped cakes are clear and well-done. I admit I also liked the nostalgic bits--a brief history of Betty Crocker's 50 years, and inset photos of some advertisements over the years. The book also provides helpful general recommendations for successful baking.
I think Betty Crocker also publishes another book focused on decorating that provides more photos (and some identical photos) of the designs outlined in this book. I think I remember seeing a photo of the sailboat cake, for example, in that edition, but this book only includes sailboat cake directions and a diagram. Still, between the two, I would recommend this version, simply because the variety of the recipes and general baking tips are more useful than the designs, which are cute, but not anything you couldn't design yourself with a little experience and imagination.

Great Gelato Recipes!.......2007-06-19
I have purchased several books in search of good gelato recipes, and gelato recipes dominate this book. The author explains the difference between the various frozen delights. The recipes are easy to follow and there are suggestions for many variations. A great book for gelato addicts! A perfect companion for my Gelato Pro (great machine!).
Looking for Gelato Recipes....?.......2006-05-13
...well they've got 'em! I was looking so hard to find an ice cream book that had a lot of gelato recipes, and this one has more basic gelato recipes than any of the other ice cream books or even JUST gelato books that I had looked at. PLUS, he has a number of potential variations for each of the main recipes (for instance 6 variations on the pecan gelato recipe, and 7 for banana gelato). To me, this is worth it JUST for the gelato recipes (100 of the 249 pages are dedicated to Gelato recipes and techniques). While there are also recipes for desserts like sherbert or granita (and even directions for ice cream sandwiches and frozen s'mores pie), there are absolutely no "ice cream" recipes, so if that is what you are looking for look elsewhere. If you are searching (sometimes in vain!) for amazing gelato recipes, look no further.
UPDATE...After actually TRYING these recipes:
The recipes in this book are fabulous! If you are trying to make gelato that actually rivals the kind you can get on the streets in Spain or Italy (and beats the ones you can get in Boston's North End!), as I said before, look no further. Definitely try the Dulce de Leche recipe, its amazingly rich and creamy...but really, just try them ALL!
And just a note on the authors, I was having an issue with the recipe when I first started out (turns out I wasnt cooking the custard long enough), and sent them an email (their contact info is on their website) and Scarbrough (or his representative....I really couldnt care which!) got back to me in a few hours with suggestions of things I could try to improve my product. I really thought that was very thoughtful and helpful. If it wasnt ALREADY getting 5 stars, they would have gotten another star just for that!
best--ever.......2005-11-07
If you've seen my other reviews of these guys books, you know I'm now a fan. I looked up their website and they apparently do teaching classes, so I'm hoping Central Market down here will get their act together and have them in. I made their chocolate gelato. Move over, Giada, that's all I can say. OK, so they're not Italian. But it was the most silky thing I've ever eaten. I actually made a trial run of it one day when my parents were coming over and ended up eating the whole batch by the end of the day. So I served some coffee cake from the store. It was worth every calorie. I haven't told anyone in my family I made that gelato because I don't want them to think I'm nuts. Plus, I want to surprise them with it. I think I'm going to make some gelatos for Thanksgiving and skip the pie.
best book on the subject.......2005-08-27
i bought this book because i have the authors' other book on ice cream (the ultimate ice cream book) and i've used it faithfully for a number of years. then i read a review of this book in the new york times. they said this book had some really great recipes including a frozen lemon souffle. i was surprised by the differences in the gelati recipes in this book and the ice cream recipes in the other book. these have more milk, less cream, and more eggs. they're custard based desserts, not ice cream. so, if you're looking for good old american ice cream i would suggest the ultimate ice cream book for that. but this book also has some interesting frozen desserts i've never tried before, like semifreddo. the chocolate is my favorite so far. what i really like about it is that you don't need an ice cream machine. surely when it comes to frozen desserts other than ice ream, this book is a hands down winner.
OK, but . . ........2005-08-27
This book is OK, but there are others out there that are equally as good or better. LOTS of repitition in the recipes. The recipe for Peach Gelato is pretty much of a bust. No one here liked it.
Of course my negativity may be brought about because I was expecting something similar to American ice cream, while gelato is a whole 'nother thing.

Excellent Cake Book!.......2007-06-27
This book has tons of great recipes for a cake mix. I honestly didn't know you could do this much with one! I can't wait to begin trying them out. I highly recommend this book!
Made a Believer Outta Me!.......2005-05-08
In my circle of friends, I'm known as a Master Chef. I can whip up delightful lemon curds, Sky High Meringue Pies, and shortbread that floats off the plate. BUT....I had NEVER baked a cake, never wanted to BAKE a cake, and didn't even LIKE cake...thanks to the miserable examples that I grew up trying to swallow in the 1960's! Dry, chemical tasting; they were featureless and a sure sign, in my myoptic view, of "Lazy Cooks", especially where Box Cake Mixes were concerned.
Enter 2005: I am asked to cater a British Tea Party...and one of the projects was to bake and decorate a CAKE! I expected to 'job it out' (having a bakery make it) but decided to tackle the Beast Formerly Known as Cake, instead.
I signed up for Wilton Cake Decorating Class. The instructor, who runs a famous bakery in Michigan, SWORE by cake mixes and insisted that they "had improved since my childhood". With her 30+ years of experience, she recommended ONLY Betty Crocker Cake Mixes and also recommended THIS BOOK, as a way to personalize the taste of cakes.
Well, in for a penny, in for a pound of butter, I say. I started the classes, I ordered the Betty Crocker Ultimate Cake Mix Cookbook, and four weeks later, I've baked over 12 examples from the book, pulled off the British Tea to accolades, AND...learned that CAKE.IS.GOOD!
This book is incredible! It has a history of HOW cake mixes have changed throughout the years; it explains what the ingredients "do" in a recipe, and it offers ways to make crisps, cookies, bars and other goodies with a mix.
Out of my 500+ cookbooks, THIS cookbook has been the MOST used one in the past month! And I've brought it to class, where the other 5 students also ordered it!!!
When professional bakers, who are making their mortgage payments and sending their kids through school via cakes, tell me that they use mixes 80% of the time, it's time to listen! You'll LOVE this book!!!
My favorite cookbook.......2005-01-12
I love cookbooks and this one, a gift from my sister-in-law, is my favorite. These easy cakes are unique and delicious! Impress your friends and family and save time too. I cannot recommend it enough.
From now on....It's dessert every day!.......2003-11-14
I love baking cakes & making sweets. But being a mother of two little ones I don't have enough time (or energy) to make cakes from scratch. This book is a treat for me, because I don't need a lot of planning ahead nor to spend too much time in the kitchen!!
A few days ago I made the Peanut Butter Cake & it looked impressive and was delicious!! I felt like a million dollars presenting it.
The book is full of appetizing pictures for nearly all the recipes, easy to use & follow directions, and has lots of tips & ideas. It also tells you how many calories are in a slice (for all you gals who want to know, although my advise is to skip that particular line).
In the book you will find all kinds of recipes for cakes, trifles, cupcakes, cookies & more.
Indulge yourself & your family.
Fun and delicious!.......2003-03-15
Every recipe in this outstanding cookbook is easy to make and delicious to eat! This book is in colour with lots of pictures, so you can decide what to bake based on how the cake looks as well as how the recipe sounds.
From quick "bake-and-take" cakes for church potlucks, to elaborately designed masterpieces for parties and weddings, to brunch cakes, this book has it all! Why no try the decadent Tres Leches Cake, or the fun Chocolate-Chip Cookie Surprise Cake, or maybe you want a cake in the shape of a train. This book has it all!

Well, what did you expect?.......2007-07-17
Personally, I was really surprised by the reviews that this book received. I have had largely positive experiences with it.
It always lists many varieties of cookies and gives a basic recipe (or four) for each type of cookie imaginable. I love cooking and am pleased to have this book in my collection. It offers so many options.
Only a few of the recipes that I have tried have been anything less than wonderful. I would definitely recommend this book!
A Great Cookie Book!.......2005-10-10
I was surprised at some of the reviews on this book, I have had good result with it so I can't say anything bad about it. :)
This book has so many recipes it is insane (in a good way though). It is a great reference and a wonderful book to pull out when you just want to try something new. I am always looking for something new and interesting to try and boy does this book have it. On many occasions this book has saved me when I needed a last min cookie idea for office parties or my daughters classroom parties. Over all I give it 4 Stars, the book covers everything under the sun and all the recipes I have tried out have come out good.
Quantity, But Not Much Quality.......2005-06-30
It is very useful to have so many cookie recipes in one book at the same time. Even a very good baking book will have, at most a couple of dozen cookies. On the other hand, the results were rather variable and not totally reliable (one person, one oven, one typewriter, what did you expect?). The experienced baker will have a treasure trove of recipes that require a little fine tuning, while the neophyte will probably be met with more than a few disappointments.
The best part of this book is that each recipe has a picture of the cookie.
The bad part is everything else. The biggest problem is the flour measurement: it only lists cups, but does not list an equivalent weight, nor the method of flour measurement (spoon and sweep, scoop and sweep, etc.). The way flour is measured can mean the difference between a perfect cookie and a hockey puck.
The results were variable: cookies that spread too much, cookies that were dry and crumbly, bar cookies that were either over or under baked, instructions where it is not always clear when something is properly baked, etc.
The biggest problem is also its strongest point: all cookies are arranged alphabetically on the first word of the cookie name. This can be a big problem for, say shortbread. If you look under shortbread, you will find nothing. However it can be found under butterscotch, ginger, peanut butter, almond, Brazil nut, cashew, hazelnut, nut, American, and scotch. Buried at the back of the book where you will never find it, is a cross reference list of all recipes organized by cookie type (bar, drop, formed, nonedible, refrigerator, and rolled). It is here that you will have to do research to find the cookie that you want.
Important note for experienced cookie bakers: this a very handy reference book to keep on your bookshelf. Regardless of what type cookie you want, you will probably find it here. Just keep in mind that the recipes have not been vetted, and you should do a couple of trial runs in order to correct the recipes. If you are a professional doing a catering job that requires you to put out a platter of at least 2 dozen types of cookies, I can think of no better resource than this one.
A good cookbook, with some reservations.......2004-11-12
I make the Sugar Cookies I with the Buttercream Icing (minus the raw egg yolk) and the Gazelle Horns every Xmas with great results. Also, this is a very good cookie book for people with dietary restrictions such as dairy, eggs, and nuts. I have never seen such a huge variety of cookie recipes that do not contain these ingredients! From reading the other reviews, I agree that some of the recipes are redundant and there is not enough description. Also, I am suspicious of any cookie recipe that uses vegetable shortening instead of real butter, which there are many.
CRISCO OBSESSED!.......2004-10-11
This guy is obsessed with vegetable shortening. Talk about bland cookies. Not to mention "1001" is a total lie. Anyone notice the 'repeat' recipes with cleverly (yeah right) disguised new names? Snickerdoodles, Nibbles and Cinnamon Balls are EXACTLY the SAME recipes... just in a different ORDER in printing. So are the Mexican Wedding Cakes (what a clever name for the IDENTICAL second version: in Spanish!). Funny that the author talks about his father on his deathbed confessing his 'secret' ingredient in the 'best' chocolate chip cookies. you guessed it: SHORTENING!
Whatever happened to butter...

Candy Shop.......2007-01-10
I bought this book for my daughter for xmas. She wants to be a pastry Chef (thanks to the food network). So far, she has made the carmel corn (absolutely fantastic), the homemade marshmallows (amazing)and carmel (gooey fun).
The only down side to this book is that there are NO pictures, NONE. Not demonstrating or showing the final product. We may need to purchase another book that has pictures.
Seemed interesting, but several recipes didn't work.......2006-12-07
I acknowledge that sugar work is tricky, but after using this book for a few recipes and then giving it away, I have to wonder how well the recipes were tested, or whether they could be described further. I've had much better luck with Nick Malgieri and Alton Brown candy recipes.
Amazing resource and how to guide.......2006-11-04
This book has really helped me learn so much about candy making. I have been making family recipes for chocolate candy for a few years now and finally decided to buy a book to learn more (my Grammy taught be but passed away last year and I still had so many questions). I now know why certain batches I made failed and why last year I got a weird color on my chocolate covered pretzels. I would probably not suggest this book for true beginners but if you are somebody like me who has little experience and no formal training this should truly be your ultimate guide book. I do wish there were pictures that is the only reason I did not give 5 stars. Thank you Bruce Weinstein!
inadequate instructions.......2004-03-20
I haven't tried all the recipes in this book, but I bought it because I was interested in techniques for making fondant and chocolate-covered candy. However the techniques are not well described and simply wrong - for example the method for chocolate tempering leaves out several steps. I only discovered this when I went to another cookbook to find out what I was doing wrong. Now I use this book for ideas, but other methods for technique. This book is not for novices. Very disappointed.
candy's more than dandy.......2004-02-12
I bought this book because I had others in this series--love that ultimate ice cream and ultimate brownies--and I'm not disappointed. I'm not much of a candy maker, never made any in fact, but I've started with the simple things in here and it's been really fun. I love making these easy treats for my kids and friends. They've been a hit at church pot lucks! So despite what some people have said about this book, it's a great book for a great value--and I just love these guys on the morning show on Comcast!

Excellent book.......2007-10-04
This book offers a wide variety of cheesecakes. I have done about 10 and they are all good. Excellent... a must buy for even beginners!
Used these for my wedding!.......2007-08-04
This is the best book! For my wedding I decided to make my own cheesecakes, I picked 5 different ones, and made a total of 30 cheesecakes! They were such a hit. All of them turned out perfectly (except when I made stupid mistakes, like forgetting to turn off the oven, etc.) and I am now known by friends, family, and out church as "The Cheesecake Lady". In fact my church is having a fundraiser play and they have asked me to make a chesecake to auction off at each performance. When I asked what else they will be auctioning, I was told nothing. That my cheesecakes are so "famous" that's all they are going to have to auction off, and that people are already excited about them. I say all this not to brag, because believe me I don't deserve the praise, it is this cookbook that does. Follow the tips at the beginning, and you'll make beautiful and yummy chesecakes everytime.
Suspicious about review process.......2006-12-07
I did not wish to rate this book with a star but had to enter something... Can someone tell me why the reviews for this book are identical to the reviews for a different cheesecake cook book "I Love Cheesecake"?
I was just reading the reviews for the other book and then planned to compare to the reviews for this book and they're exactly the same reviews???
makes me wonder why I should even bother with reading any of the reviews on this site...and if I should buy any of the books since I cannot tell which one is a good book.
The delicious treat of homemade cheesecake.......2006-12-03
"Cheesecake Extraordinaire" starts off with ingredient notes, equipment, and more; I highly recommend reading the "cheesecake basics" if you aren't familiar with cheesecake-baking. The process is simple, but there are certain steps and aspects to it that are important, and it's the lack of those that so often leads people to think cheesecakes are difficult to make.
The cheesecakes are split into a handful of chapters: beverage-based (most, but not all, of these are based on alcoholic drinks and have a decent amount of alcohol in them), candy and cookie, caramel, chocolate, coconut, custard and spice, fruit, mint, nut, peanut butter, vanilla, and "guilt-free" (i.e., recipes using sugar substitute). Don't get too excited here--most of the recipes are in the first and last chapters, beverage-based and reduced-sugar. For some folks that might be wonderful, but I found it rather limiting. I can't stand the taste of sugar substitutes, and I usually make cheesecake to share with certain friends, some of whom really don't like the taste of alcohol. That severely limits the number of useful recipes in this cookbook for me. It's a personal thing, though--if you'd like those recipes, then those chapters will be more useful to you.
The cheesecakes we've made have certainly tasted absolutely delicious. There's a recipe for individual vanilla cheesecakes that's to-die-for, and a caramel pecan cheesecake that has a delightfully natural and somewhat subtle caramel flavor based primarily in brown sugar. Not a single cheesecake has disappointed.
That said, we have at times left off the frostings or toppings suggested by the book. One wonderful cheesecake recipe included a recipe for frosting that was entirely shortening-based--and I cannot STAND shortening-based frostings. They're just plain nasty. Often a cheesecake would be just as good or better without the suggested toppings; at other times the toppings work quite well (such as for the caramel pecan cheesecake, which is good either way).
I wouldn't call this the ultimate cheesecake cookbook, but I'd certainly call it a very good one. Personally I'd like to see more non-alcoholic and non-sugar-free recipes, and fewer unnecessary toppings (or a higher quality of topping recipes overall). However, depending on your particular tastes in food, your mileage may vary! If you love high-alcohol cheesecakes and don't have a problem with shortening-based icings and such, this may be the perfect cheesecake cookbook for you.
No more failed cheesecakes..........2006-05-01
I heartily agree with the past reviewers. I've owned this book for only a week and I've made 2 cheesecakes from it - Eggnog and a chocolate one. Both were topped simply with piped whipped cream and they were just simply divine, both to look at and especially, to eat!
For years, I baked cheesecakes with a water bath and I would still get cracks or the cakes would sometimes come out with soggy crusts (even with the bottom wrapped in heavy-duty foil). I finally said goodbye to cheesecake baking as it had been hit-or-miss. Then I chanced upon this book. No more of those darned water baths; very easy prep and great end results.
The only adjustment I made with the recipes is to bake my cheesecake for approx. 20-30 minutes longer than the usual 1 hr. and 10 min. (Even with my oven accurate according to an oven thermometer, not all ovens behave alike.)
Many of the recipes use liqueur for flavoring (which I like), so stock up on the Schnapps, Kahlua, Framboise, or whatever may be your favorite. Can't wait for this weekend so I can go at it again!

If your ultimate cheesecake is rich and creamy, heavy with cream cheese, and best eaten in slivers, look no further. Joey Reynolds, syndicated talk-show host, and Myra Chanin, cookbook author and food writer, have teamed up to deliver the mother lode of cheesecake recipes. Although there are dozens and dozens of recipes in this book, they are all variations of two basic ones--baked and nonbaked.
With flavors as interesting as Cranberry Mint Cheesecake, Apricot Streusel Cheesecake, White Cassis Cheesecake, and Honey Fig Cheesecake, you'll use this book as much for ideas as you will for the recipes. Reynolds and Chanin love flavorings and extracts, and they begin by recommending their favorite producers and then use almost every flavor made by them. With the "Bonus" Magic Formula Which Will Allow You to Experiment and Concoct Your Own Personally Flavored Baked Cheesecake, you can add any of the flavors they haven't already, and you'll never have to make the same flavor twice. Reynolds and Chanin are imaginative and are sure to get your creative juices flowing with decadences such as Southern Peach Cheesecake, made with peach extract and preserves, coconut flakes, and chopped pecans, and crowd-pleasers such as Jamoca Cheesecake, made with instant espresso, coffee-flavored liqueur, chocolate, and walnuts. These are not the flat-topped, custardlike cheesecakes that belong on fine-dining dessert carts, but rather the rich, dense, lightly browned New York-style cheesecakes that gave the dessert its American-icon status. Don't worry about the cracks, Reynolds and Chanin reassure us--the baked sour-cream topping is the perfect foil. With 23 tips to encourage us, such as Think Positive, Use Plastic-Wrap Mittens to Press Down the Crumb-Crust Mix Around the Pan, and Never Bake Cheesecakes at the Last Minute, novice bakers should feel confident and will be amused by the authors' lighthearted tones.
The second master recipe is The Magic Formula Which Will Allow You to Experiment and Concoct Your Own Personally Flavored Nonbaked Cheesecake. It comes at the end of a chapter of recipes for nonbaked cheesecakes such as Holiday Ginger Pumpkin Cheesecake, Banana-Split Cheesecake, and Caramel Nut Cheesecake. These nonbaked cheesecakes call for sweetened condensed milk and an acidic fruit juice, which makes them to set up the way Key Lime Pie is set. They also contain a "fruit protector" (ascorbic acid and corn sugar) called Fruit Fresh.
The final section of the book is "Other People's Cheesecakes," and it serves to remind us that even if you already have our own favorite cheesecake recipes and techniques, you can never have too many. --Leora Y. Bloom

Cheescake Rookie.......2003-05-20
I love to make desserts, especially cheesecake but before I bought this book I had only attempted 1. Now I can't stop making them. I thought the book provides good directions and has a lot of helpful hints on the right and wrong of cheescake making. The only negative is that there are only so many recipes and those are limited. But on the flip side I think this book provides a good foundation for branching out to try your own recipes.
Only for those who know how to bake.......2001-10-24
I listen to Joey Reynolds radio show out of Fresno (we live in the Sierras up north) and have heard him talk about cheescakse for months. And my family likes cheesecake, especially tofu and other lower fat types. Like Reviewer Lori Baltazar from Manila, Philippines it is surprising that a cook book lacks photos of what an item might at least look like.
Thus this isn't a cheesecake cookbook that I would recommend for anyone other than a cook who knows their way around a kitchen and has some major self confidence and has made cheescakes from other recipes from other books.
A good buy, but definitely far from being the ULTIMATE.......2001-06-21
I had high hopes when I bought this cookbook simply because it bills itself as THE ultimate cheesecake cookbook. Heck, I bought it without even browsing through it! It's easy enough to read: directions on how to make a perfect cheesecake, pointers to remember, etc. There are also sections for baked, non-baked and other people's favorite cheesecakes. The book's drawback is that it has NO PICTURES - not one (save for the one on the cover). For a cookbook especially, pictures are what urge and inspire the reader to try the recipe. Secondly, the recipes for the no-bake cheesecakes are (almost) the same as the baked ones. No fair! Do buy this book if you're just starting to make cheesecakes -the book will be a good guide. But if you're familiar with making cheesecakes, this book will only bore you with its lack of variety.

Customer Reviews:
The worst muffin book I've ever used!.......2007-07-15
DO NOT waste your money on this book! It's the worst muffin book I have ever seen. Bland, boring, tasteless muffins. I don't know what book these positive reviewers are talking about, it can't possibly be this muffin book! Don't buy it!!!
Awesome book!.......2007-07-08
This is an awesome muffin cookbook! I have been searching for a book just like this one that has recipes for muffins that are tasty and also good for you for years. I love that the author uses whole grains, less sugar in most of the recipes, and adds nutritious ingredients to all of her muffins. Some of her listed ingredients can be exchanged for other ingredients to make the muffins vegan, if you choose. This cookbook is not for the baker who wants to bake with only white flour (all of the recipes call for some other type of flour such as whole wheat, rice, buckwheat, cornmeal, etc) or for those who scoff at alternative ingredients (such as applesauce, fruit purees, fruit juice concentrates, etc), but these recipes are still easy to prepare. I can't wait to try all of the recipes in this book and would strongly recommend it to anyone who also wants a healthy, good for you muffin cookbook!
Best Muffin Cookbook!.......2007-04-01
I borrowed this book from the library because I LOVE muffins. After reading through it, I was surprised to find that the recipes are healthy! They are not loaded with sugar or empty calories, but instead they include whole grains, berries, vegetable purees, and very little fat.
I poured through this book and have made several muffins so far. Despite the natural ingredients, one of the recipes I made was the BEST tasting muffin recipe I have ever made. I am SO GLAD I found this cookbook, and I can't wait to try all of the other recipes.
This book was not designed to be an easy or "basic" muffin cookbook, but rather a wholesome, good tasting on.
Not as Advertised.......2007-02-18
I bought this for my daughter as a birthday gift and was very disappointed. The receipies call for 2 or 3 different types of flour and many replace fat with apple sauce. I was looking for basic muffins with a number of flavor ideas. This isn't it.
A winner--creative, healthful, delicious muffins.......2006-09-21
This book contains so many intriguing recipes that I couldn't wait to try! I spent a few days experimenting eagerly with the ones that particularly caught my eye: Pumpkin-Chocolate Chip Muffins (devoured by the whole family!), Ladda's Lemon Ginger Muffins (my daughter exclaimed, "There's a yummy burst of lemon flavor from the first bite!"), White Chocolate with Raspberry Muffins, Cafe Crumble Muffins, and even French Onion Soup Muffins. I can't wait to try out more of the recipes--such as Orange Cardamom Muffins and Steven's Sun-Dried Tomato Muffins (with spinach).
If you're not used to healthful baking, some of the ingredients might sound foreign, but find a natural foods store or a well-stocked grocery store, and give them a try--they're not only better for you than the white flour and sugar varieties but taste great, too! Pair these muffins with a salad or soup for a lovely, inspired meal.
In my opinion, you can't go wrong with a cookbook that contains a recipe for Seven-Factors-of-Enlightenment Muffins! Making these recipes is like a mindfulness meditation--you can slow down and savor the subtle aromas, flavors, and the interaction between the different ingredients, knowing you're creating something that's wholesome for your body, mind, and soul.

Ultimate cookbook on chocolate.......2007-02-26
Great book. Amazing collection of recipes, 1001 to be exact. Some traditional some unique, all satisfying. A picture of each recipe. Highly recommended.

Simply superb!.......2002-12-12
I found this book absolute heaven. Out of all my cookbooks this one is getting tons of usage. The recipes are easy to follow and the pictures are the best. Probably the most extensive collection of chocolate recipes ever! Don't let this pass you by. Definitely worth the money!
Lots of great recipes, but horrible index ruins it.......2002-11-24
With over 1,000 recipes, this book is undoubtably the most extensive chocolate cookbook I've ever seen. You name it, it has it! But don't be surprised if you can't find the recipe you're looking for.
The index for this book is absolutely the worst I have ever seen in any book, because it only references ingredients, not the recipes themselves. It took me almost ten minutes to find a recipe for chocolate brownies, because I had to scan entire chapters from beginning to end until I found it. I can guarantee you that you will go insane trying to find a particular recipe in this book. That's why I gave it only three stars. It would have gotten five stars otherwise.
All chocolate lovers must have this book.......2002-11-15
I love chocolate and fess up so do you! This is a great book and if you are a novice or an experienced baker you will get rave reviews from all of the taste testers ( and there will be many ) when you make just about any of the recipes in this book.
Quite a few of my holiday cookies are about to be baked.
