I love to see my friends succeed and do something really fabulous……like publish a cookbook! If you don’t know these three incredibly talented ladies……you are going to want to make sure you visit them . Check out their blogs and books.
- Decorating Cookies Party by Bridget Edwards of Bake at 350 : Bridget was my very first blogging friend. Thru email and her wonderful cookie decorating tutorials, she taught me how easy it is to decorate cookies! Not only is she one of the sweetest, funniest bloggers I’ve met, and she has crazy cookie decorating skills! Besides all of the amazing recipes and tips she shares on her site, she’s got a new book out, Decorating Cookies Party (her second book, I might add!) ! The book contains nearly 50 cookie designs and five classic cookie recipes, including one gluten-free option. Bridget covers everything from rolling the dough to piping, along with troubleshooting tips. There are ten themed party ideas for both adults and kids!
- The Biscoff Cookie & Spread Cookbook by Katrina Bahl of In Katrina’s Kitchen : I received my copy of this book a few weeks ago and Allison and I have been drooling over the gorgeous photos and the delicious recipes ever since. If you’ve never had the Biscoff cookie butter, it’s a delicious spread (think peanut butter but with no nuts!) made from the fabulous Biscoff cookies; a delectable caramelized biscuit. More than half of the jar is made up of crushed Biscoff Cookies. Katrina offers more than 70 simple yet unique recipes starring Biscoff spread and cookies such as Caramel Biscoff Brownies, Crunchy Biscoff Pretzel Cups, or Biscoff Buttercream Cupcakes!
- Dessert Mashups: Tasty Two In One Treats by Dorothy Kern of Crazy for Crust : Within 15 minutes of this cookbook arriving at our door, Allison had 10 recipes earmarked to make! One dessert is good. Two desserts are even better, but a doubly delicious mash-up of both into one all-new concoction is the best! With step-by-step instructions and gorgeous photography Dorothy makes it easy to create any or all fifty-two inspiring recipes! Each mash-up will bring a new level of creative fun to your baking, with treats guaranteed to wow everyone at the table, including: Cinnamon Rolls + Cookies, Cheesecake + Cookie Dough Truffles, Peanut Butter Cups + Brownies, Apple Pie + Butter Cookies and many more!

Oh, what do I NOT like to bake! lol Sometimes I get on bread-baking kicks (like this week). I just made a divine cinnamon roll pull-apart bread with a maple glaze. Mmmm. Other times I get in the mood to make cake truffles. So many different flavors, so little time! Birthdays are a good excuse to make decadent layer cakes. The latest was a red velvet six-layer cake with raspberries and a dark chocolate buttercream. Divine! Thanksgiving will bring its own treasure trove of desserts and breads. And then, of course, Christmas. A baker’s dream come true! 🙂
