I thought it would be fun to share some books I’ve been wanting to bake from. Just some of the sweet reads sitting on my shelf. Well, actually they are on my mantle and on my floor because I am in desperate need of a bookshelf to house them all and keep them cozy.
They pretty much stay stacked to save space. I can get more stacks on my mantle that way. But you know – the book I want to pull down is always the one on the bottom. Of course. But do I unstack them to get to the one I need? Of course not. I strain and push and wiggle to lift the ones on top and try to inch the one I want out.
It’s never pretty.
Thank goodness all of these books are.
Let’s take a quick peek at them and hopefully you can help me decide which one to use first.
Tartine Bread by Chad Robertson
Photographs by Eric Wolfinger
This is a big, beautiful book of bread. And it scares me a little. I haven’t worked with dough or yeast a lot. But I want to learn. I want to make bread! And this book from the legendary Tartine Bakery in San Francisco is gonna help me. One day.
Ultimate Cookies by Julia Usher
Photographs by Steve Adams
Let me just say that this book could just as easily be placed in the art section as it is in the cookbook section. Julia’s cookie designs and attention to detail are absolutely amazing. Her piping work is impeccable and a little intimidating too. But she has lots of pictures and instructions to help you along the way.
Sugarlicious by Meaghan Mountford
Cute treats and fun sweets. This book is full of whimsical projects to that are easy to make and decorate for any occasion. And many of them kids can make, too.
Handheld Pies by Sarah Billingsley and Rachel Wharton
Photographs by Ellen Silverman
Umm… Pies? In my hand? Sold. Tiny treats in any form are hard for me to resist. And so was this cover. The book is divided into freeform pies, structured pies and jar pies. Too cute.
The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Food From My Frontier by Ree Drummond
Hey Ree – Thank you for including so many sweets in your beautiful cookbook. The Coffee Cream Cake is calling me. But so are all the other recipes. Maybe I should just start at the top and check each one off. If they are as good as the Chocolate Sheet Cake in your first book, I am in trouble.
Sweet Auburn Desserts by Sonya Jones
Photographs by Deborah Llewellyn
That’s a cover, huh. Completely captivating. I can’t stop looking at it and I think my heart just started racing.
Sweet Auburn Bakery is located in Atlanta and I can’t believe I haven’t visited yet. I must correct that immediately. Oh and stack cakes just moved up on the to-bake list. Oh my. Oh! My!
The Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook by Cheryl Day and Griffith Day
Look how adorable these two are. This book is from another Southern bakery and it makes me want to jump in the car and head straight to Savannah, GA to visit their charming shop. Turning the pages, each dessert is more tempting than the next. And there’s savories inside, too. Bacon Jam empanadas and the ham and cheese pastry puffs have my name all over them.
Humphry Slocombe Ice Cream Book by Jake Godby, Sean Vahey and Paolo Lucchesi
Photographs by Frankie Frankeny
With ice cream flavors like Secret Breakfast, Rosemary’s Baby and Fat Elvis … and more than 300K twitter followers, I want to know more about this little ice cream shop in San Francisco. When they say ice cream with attitude, they mean it.
Joy the Baker Cookbook by Joy Wilson
Oh Joy. Your book is a total biggie. I remember when we chatted at the book signing I had in Santa Monica and you were just starting it. Can you believe? Look at the amazingness you made. So happy for you! Oh… and those Baked Chili Cheese Fries… help me. P.S. Great arms!
Milk & Cookies by Tina Casaceli
Photographs by Antonis Achilleos
With a title like that, how can you go wrong. Divided by vanilla cookies, double chocolate cookies, oatmeal cookies, peanut butter cookies, sugar cookies, special cookies, family favorites, brownies and bars … milk is definitely mandatory.
Marshmallow Madness by Shauna Sever
Photographs by Leigh Beisch
I love this cover!!! Love it. I want to wallpaper my kitchen in it! All I know is marshmallows will be happening soon. I just need a better candy thermometer first and then look out.
Pie it Forward by Gesine Bullock-Prado
Photographs by Tina Rupp
Pies, tarts, tortes and galettes. Yes, yes, yes and yes! Filled with tons of recipes and a passion to pie it forward, Gesine’s book should make any pie lover happy.
The Divvies Bakery Cookbook by Lori Sandler
I’ve had this book for a little while now and have meant to bake from it way before now. All the recipes are vegan and some are gluten free, too. If you have a need for egg, nut or dairy free, you might want to check it out. You can order online from them, too.
The Cookiepedia by Stacy Adimando
Photographs by Tara Striano
An encyclopedia of cookies. Oh yes. Buttery, chocolaty, fancy, fruity, spicy and nutty cookies fill the pages of this super cute book. It lays flat, too. Love that.
Home Baked Comfort by Kim Laidlaw
Photographs by Eric Wolfinger
I’ve baked from this book before but I couldn’t help showing it again. It’s really beautiful and one of the few books that I want to make almost everything inside. P.S. I have a recipe in the book, too. Fun!
Top Pot Hand-Forged Doughnuts by Mark and Michael Klebeck with Jess Thomson
Photographs by Scott Pitts
I didn’t make it to Top Pot Doughnuts when I was in Seattle, but hopefully I can fix that one day soon. I love cake doughnuts and old fashioned doughnuts. Okay, I love any doughnuts. Except filled. Can’t do filled so much.
Les Petits Macarons by Kathryn Gordon and Anne McBride
Photographs by Steve Legato
I love these little cookie confections. I’ve made them a couple of times, but not enough to feel confident with them, so I scooped up this cute book for inspiration.
Push-Up Pops from Courtney Dial Whitmore
Photographs Kyle Dreier
Hey Courtney! Thanks for sending me your book. I have my push-up pop containers and I’m ready to go. Can’t wait to play with them.
The Sugar Cube by Kir Jensen with Danielle Centoni
Photographs by Lisa Warninger
Twisted treats from the heart of this sweet little food cart in Portland. And yes, those are chocolate chips drizzed in caramel on top of that cupcake. This one looks like it will be fun to dive in to.
Sugar Baby by Gesine Bullock-Prado
Photographs by Tina Rupp
This book is mostly about cooking with sugar instead of baking with it. Working on the stove instead of the oven. And yes, you can make your own rock candy at home. Super excited about that one. The recipes are divided by temperature so a good candy thermometer would be helpful.
Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams at Home by Jeni Britton Bauer
Photographs by Stacy Newgent
I love everything about this book. The topic, the design, the unique flavors, the way the ice cream recipes are photographed. And I would love it more if I owned an ice cream machine so I could make some too. In the meantime, I just read that Jeni started selling some of her flavors at The Fresh Market last week – Yay for us! And you can also order them online.
Flour by Joanne Chang with Christie Matheson
Photographs by Keller + Keller
Spectacular recipes from Boston’s Flour Bakery fill the pages of this mouth-watering book. Nutella tarts, chocolate brioche, and brown sugar popovers sound like a good place to start.

Joy the Baker!
mmalavec(at)med(dot)umich(dot)edu
Milk and Cookies, although all of them look amazing!
Marshmallow Madness !!!! So good!! Hi from Argentina!
ure killing me here…come on announce the winner…the push-pop book
Macarons
Could I even choose just one to bake from first? I’d buy all of them and bake simultaneously until I collapsed in a sugary floury heap!
But, I think it will have to be Hand Held Pies. Nothing better than my favourite things in miniature!
Would love the new Pioneer Woman cookbook.
Hand-forged Doughnuts! My 3 year old son is obsessed with doughnuts. Is this giveaway over?! AH!
Hand Forged donuts would look even more delicious with a few of my hungry friends enjoying them…
Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams! The summer weather is arriving, it’s now ice cream season!
yum yum yum! i’d like to try… sugar baby. i’d love to make cute edible treats!
They all look absolutely amazing, but Sugarbaby has been on my Amazon wish list for quite some time so I think I would have to go with that. You’ve definitely given me quite a few more to add though!!
I would buy the Milk and Cookie book first, cookies are my first love (just don’t tell my husband, ha). And then I would go wild buying more baking books and children’s books on Amazon, and maybe pick up a good read for me too! I LOVE books, and cookbooks are at the top o’ the list. Thanks for a great giveaway! Fingers crossed.
I love ice cream so definitely one of the ice cream books!!!
I’d love to do something from the pie book… but Milk and Cookies is way more realistic. They all look fantastic!
Milk & Cookies! No!!! Joy the baker!!!! Or Auburn!!!!
Thanks for the giveaway! Milk and Cookies looks like a good start for me!!
The Back in the day bakery cook book looks good to me. Of course, they all look good to me!
I really like the idea of Handheld Pies mixed with Splendid Ice Creams . . . mmm warm pie with ice-cream on top.
Home baked comfort
I love to bake so I would definitely start with the “flour” cookbook.
They all look good but Top Pot Hand-Forged Doughnuts looks extra yummy!
Marshmallow Madness. The cover is gorgeous and making marshmallows has always seemed intimidating but this book looks worth diving in.
I have no clue where I would start…but I would probably want the donuts baking book. I have a huge soft spot for donuts!
Definitely the Jeni’s Ice Cream book…I’ve been to her shop, but unfortunately don’t live close by one!
The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Food From My Frontier
plz !!!!!!!!!!!!
The Pioneer Woman Cooks, of course! Ree is my second favorite, next to you. :)
As a life-long Boston girl, I have to say the Flour cookbook. I could happily eat their twice-baked brioche every morning for breakfast!
Totally Push Up Pops :)
omg! They all look so good… If I had to choose, it would be Handheld Pies because I looooove pie.
Flour by Joanne Chang! I’ve heard amazing things about Flour’s bakery. Unfortunately I haven’t gotten to try it out yet.
oh it would be hard to choose, Either Pie it forward or the cookiepedia.
I’m intrigued by The Sugar Cube!
handheld pies… the possibilities look endless!!! they would be sooo much fun!
I love the design of “Milk and Cookies,” and the food looks delicious.
I would have to say the “handheld pies” book. I love mini foods…especially pie :)
You should do the sugar one because you might like doing something different then baking!
Milk and Cookies should be my middle name, so I’m going with that sweet little number!
My initial inclination would be to bake from the Milk & Cookies book, but whatever that chocolate goodness is on the cover of the Flour book is calling out to me – I choose Flour.
Home Baked Comfort.. yummm… and then Handheld Pies! :)
I can’t choose!! I am cookbook obsessed, especially something sweet. I would probably have to start with Sweet Auburn. Those stacked cakes looked amazing.
Les Petits Macarons definitely! So yummy
The Divvies Bakery cookbook! My brother-in-law is allergic to dairy and nuts so that book would be really helpful!
so sad i missed the pw signing in my hometown! that’s the first one i’d crack open, but some of those looks so scrumptious.
Milk and Cookies look so tempting right now.
I have The Pioneer Woman’s new book on my wishlist for Mother’s Day.
and also my second one is marshmallow madness so delicious i have tried them with dipped choclate so good i would like to see
Please try “Hand held Pies” first…there is nothing more delicious that warm pie. I know pie always makes me smile.
Look forward to more of your blog.
Thanks
I’ve had Sugarbaby on my “must read” list and now I want to take a look through The Sugar Cube. Thanks Bakerella.
i would really want to see how you make les petits macarons
they look to die for can you please please make them i check your website almost everyday to see the new recipes you have made they are so delicious you are my inspiration.
I have always wanted to try and make marshmallow’s so Marshmallow Madness would have to be my first!
I don’t think I could choose between them. They all look so good!
Hi! Defenetly from Marshmellow Madness, as you said that cover is irresistable.
I so love your blog! I check it every day to see if I can find some thing new :)
Kisses
Paula
I’m most interested in Cookiepedia & Flour (and of course Tartine, though like you said, it seems a bit intimidating!)
Push-Up Pops, and Sugar Baby!! Yumm Sweets!
Sugar Cube – Heck that is here in my own home town . . . .so yea, that would be my first choice
The Push-up Pops book!
i love macarons so “petit macarons” it is for me!
The Pioneer Woman Cookbook definitely! Yummmm
P Dubs in the house!! She’d never fail me. ;-)
cookiepedia. yum yum yum.
The first one would definitely be Push Up Pops. I’m just so intrigued by the name! Anything fun and new is always good with me. Then I’d have to say Milk and Cookies. That one is just so classic, and so good for those chocolate cravings!
Definitely Julia Usher’s Ultimate Cookies, and the Back in the Day cookbooks! Hey, you can’t choose just one! They all look amazing but these would be my first two to bake from!
The Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook looks so fun, I’m going to have to go with that one.
The Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook would be my first choice, but they all look great.
The push up pops book, the pops are so pretty
Sweet Auburn Desserts by Sonya Jones
torn between the sugar baby or the marshmellow one but I think I would got with the sugar baby it looks like fun!!
I would cook from the Handheld Pies book- so adorable!
After visiting Humphrey Slocombe’s in San Fran I would absolutely love to make some of that ice cream on my own. It’s to die for! Blue bottle coffee is my favorite.
I would bake from push up pops cook book
Handheld Pies looks so cool… iIve been fascinated with mini pies and mini desserts lately!
I vote for Handheld Pies! Sounds yummy!
CookiePedia…”reinventing the classics” is right up my alley!
oh my goodness. They all look delicious. How about sugar cube, and flour. YUM!
While any baking cookbook sounds good, Joy the Baker caught my eye with the ‘simple and comforting’ title!
I want Joy the Baker!!! Actually I want all of them, but Joy the Baker first.
I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw Top Pot Hand-Forged Doughnuts. Yum. This would be my choice. :)
I love Pioneer woman!! I would for sure get that one!
W.o.w.! I can’t pick just one. I would go with Tartine Bread, Sweet Auburn Desserts, or Sugar Baby.
I would like to bake from Sugarlicious, the gnome cake looks adorable and my friend loves flamingos.
The Push Pops book looks cool to.
Les Petites Macarons….I love French macarons :)
I love the ultimate cookies – how intricate and creative!!
I would definitely go with Les Petits Macarons- I just think they are such perfect little treats!
The pioneer woman!! I love all of her recipes and it would be pretty cool to cook a whole meal from her book!
Humphry Slocombe Ice Cream Book by Jake Godby. We’ll be going to San Francisco this summer so I will definitely be making into their shop!
I just bought some of these same cookbooks! I am totally addicted to buying cookbooks on Amazon. My next goal is to bake some Macarons from the Les Petits Macarons book because I tried them once and really flubbed them up…although everyone said they were delicious and ate them anyway!! :>)
There are so many to choose from! But definitely Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream at Home, Top Pot, and Flour… but then again… all of them look amazing!
Handheld Pies would be my top pick, followed very closely by The Cookiepedia.
The first book that I would bake from would be the cookiepedia I love to bake and cookies are great.
Then I would use the ultimate cookies and sugarlicious to decorate them.
Nice choice of book! thanks for sharing! I always get a lot of info from your post about baking and where to purchase cool baking supplies.
I’d love to cook from them all, but especially Marshmallow Madness!
omg I want them all, the pie in hand cookbook, the doughnut cookbook! joy the baker and jen’s ice cream!
Sugar baby!
How about a feast with recipes from all of em’?!?! Now THAT is smart :)
Flour, by Joanne Chang! I’ve been obsessed with her since I read one of her recipes in Fine Cooking almost 15 years ago.
The Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook and Joy of the Baker Cookbook ! I’ve been wanting this two for awhile.
Handheld pies! Something about those is so… nostalgic.
Definitely the hand-forged doughnuts one. I’ve never made doughnuts before, but I am really excited to try it out.
Sugarlicious!
Marshmallow Madness, just because it is something I have
never tried. I also think the Girl Scout Troop would have a
blast making and tasting them!!
Back in the Day Bakery. Yummmmmm =)
I have to say, Sugar Baby. It’s been on my Amazon wish list for a long time and I love working with sugar!!
Sugarbaby – I have it (bought it for myself as an early Christmas present) – love it! Have made a few things, but the ‘bullseyes’ (caramel/fondant spirals) were awesome! So much more to make, lovely to look at, and her writing style’s a blast. I need to acquire Pie it Forward.
My top two picks are Les Petits Macarons and Top Pot Hand forged doughnuts. I think I would prefer that a good friend try them out on me first, though, so I could sample some recipes!
Honestly, all of them.
My Cakebook collection is to big already but I just can’t get past the cake baking section in the book store.
But if I had to choose, I would wanna try something out of the Hand-Forged Doughnuts Book first. Since I always wanted to know how to make Old Fashioned Donuts.
Mmmmm…Cookies and Milk!
Ree’s cookbook is at the top off my list!
Pie it Forward! I read her memoir and loved it… I’m sure this is just as good, with more recipes.
Oh my goodness, I just added most of these to my Amazon wish list with the ice cream books at the top – Jeni’s and Humphry ! It is beginning to get warmer here in Denver and those two would be perfect to start with right now.
I’ve been wanting to get Joy the Baker’s cookbook and the new one from Pioneer Woman. I’ve been reaiding their blogs for years. Oh & the marshmallow book looks amazing!
It’s a hard decision but I’m going with Handheld Pies!
So hard to choose, but I would start with Joy the Baker’s book (yum!)
I would start with the Pioneer Woman cookbook. Then right after that it would be Pie it forward…
Home baked comfort looks amazing!!!
Milk and Cookies would be my first choice with The Pioneer Woman a close second.
They all look so great! Cookbooks are my weakness… I’ve been wanting to make bread too, but kind of intimidated. I would definitely choose Tartine Bread :)
Marshmallow Madness looks like HEAVEN but I’d have to go with Ree! Pioneer Woman I want you….(well at least your cookbook!)
Definitely “Flour”, I stumbled upon their banana bread recipe the other day and it was amazing! Would love to see what else is in there!
Divvies, cookie encyclopedia, and pioneer woman!
I love anything pie related so Pie it forward for me!!!
i love all the cookbooks. But if I have to choose one now The petits macarons.
I love books
Handheld pies!
Pies, handheld? Awesome :D
Ooh, so many lovely cookbooks! My mum has a collection of her shelf, filled with lovely illustrations.
I would have to pick Milk & Cookies! I’ve been using the same cookie recipe for ever and while tasty, it can get a little bland. I need to mix it up! :)
Sugarbaby and Handheld Pies!!!
Definitely Joy the Baker – she looks so cheeky!
sugarbaby!!!! I LOVE rock candy.
I would love to have “Handheld Pies”! Looks great…
I want them all.. but the first one i would buy is the push -up pops my son will love it.. he is only for and for the past year and a half he brings me my cake pops book and says mommy lets make some..
I just put pretty much all of those books onto my Amazon wish list, but I think the one I’d like to bake from most is ‘Pie It Forward’ – I have some friends who are crazily obsessed with pies and that would make their day!
Pie It Forward!!
I was going to say Mastering the Art of French Cooking but that Handheld Pie book looks FANTASTIC!
They all look great, but I think I’d start with Push-up Pops.
Hmmm…they are all pretty delish, but I’ve looked at Jeni’s since I do have an ice cream maker…though that donut one is running pretty close.
Bread is always amazing like a real alive creature. Tartine bread is my favourite and my best. Thanks fo sharing!
Top Pot Hand-Forged Doughnuts!
I think the sugar cube, since she is from Portland and all. The best city ever!
I’ve been eyeing a couple of these lovely books for awhile, so thanks for posting and doing a give away! I especially like the Pioneer Woman cookbook.
Cookiepedia!
They all look fantastic, but I think I’d start with Tartine Bread. Always good to give something new a go, and I don’t think breadmaking is really as scary as it seems when you’re just starting out! Thanks very much for the giveaway.
Sugar cube!! Portland love
goodness!!! how could you pick just one?!
I guess I’d choose either hand pies or PW’s new cook book.
But also toping my list (even though it’s on pre order right now) is smitten kitchen’s new cookbook!
Tartine Bread!!…i’ve been wanting to try making bread too for the longest time.
I say Joy the Baker. Look at those arms ;)
How do I choose one? I love The Pioneer Woman. Joy the Baker looks cool. I like her style. But I really love to make pie. So PIe it Forward would be my first choice!
Joy the Baker cookbook!!
Milk and Cookies. I want to eat the cover. ;)
Milk & Cookies – It’s already on my wishlist!
I think I would want to try the push up book just because I’ve never even heard of that before. They look so cute and unique!
Definitely the doughnut book! I cannot resist doughnuts… every time my husband brings home extras from the office my hips are not happy.
Oops, meant Julia Ushers “Ultimate Cookies”! The pies look yummy too though!
sugarlicious and ultimate cookies i’d have SO much FUN with.
theses books look awesome..thanks for sharing!
:-)
These all look fabulous but I like Julia Ushers “Handheld Pies” the best so far. Thanks for the chance to win the gift card, that would be amazing!
Joy the Baker! Looks awesome!
sugarlicious or milk and cookies…they both sound so cute!
OMGOMGOMG – ALL OF THEM!!!! Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, Hand Forged Doughnuts, and TOTALLY the Handheld Pies book. I already own PW’s new book and Joy the Baker… seriously fantastic! And now one I’ve never heard of, Flour. I’m gonna have to look at that one!
I would start with Milk and cookies! can’t go wrong :-)
I think I would like the Handheld Pies book. I like making little desserts. I love your site by the way. My children LOVE the lemon bars.
The new Pionner Woman cookbook. I have been meaning to buy it!
My first two choices would be Push-Up Pops and The Divvies Bakery Cookbook!
I would bake from the Divvies cookbook for my sister in law as she has an egg allergy and doesn’t get to enjoy cakes very often!
Joy the Baker – I’ve followed her blog and had some great results. I’m always interested to see what she is up to.
I would like to cook from the Joy the Baker cookbook. I have been following her blog for a while!
Le petit macarons
I would definitely pick…..”The Pioneer Woman Cookies, Food from my Frontier”
Woo hoo!!! You have so many good ones!!!
they all look AMAZING but would definitely love to own a copy of the flour bakery one!
I can’t wait to try to Push-Up Pops at my daughter’s first birthday party!
Hand Held Pies, for sure. I love pies, especially when they’re portable :)
I am torn between Ree’s new book and Push up Pops. I know that anything by Ree is amazing. My son said after I made her braised short ribs “If you could cook like this every night my life would be complete.” I can’t choose….thepush up pops looks so interesting.
Pioneer Woman because I just like her style or Handheld Pie because I really like the idea of tiny pies of all types.
Flour, Milk and Cookies, Pie it forward and many more looks good ;)
Heaven knows I need the encylopedia on baking! So, I’d go with Cookapedia.
Thanks!
I would want to bake from Push Up Pops first!
The Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook!
Definitely Les Petits Macarons! I’ve always wanted to try making them, but they look very intimidating! A tutorial by the fabulous Bakerella will help me get some confidence to try it at home!
Flour by Joanne Chang with Christie Matheson. The dessert pictures look so yummy!!!
HUM, i pick Joy The Baker!
WOW, so many good choices. I would have to start with Ree’s and then move on to…..doughnuts! :)
Wow, now that’s a VERY tough decision! I think I’d go for Marshmallow Madness, I absolutely love marshmallows but I’ve never made them at home before!
Milk and Cookies is calling my name… :)
what great looking books! I have to say I love to make bread, so I’d love to read the Tartine book and try something.
I have wanted BOTH pioneer woman cookbooks….no one’s gotten the hint :(
I would get the Pioneer Woman’s cookbook. My daughter and I love to read her blog!
I would start with the Home Baked Comfort. When you’re pregnant with twins, nothing sounds better than my sweet comfort foods!
Oh, either Milk and Cookies or the Splendid Ice Creams book. Both sound delicious! Although, really, you couldn’t go wrong with any of those you listed.
It’s a toss up between Handheld Pies and Cookiepedia…. yum!
Oooo all of the above (yes please!) but since I have to pick just one… Sugar Baby I think
Hmm… Les Petite macaroons or cookiepedia… Oh whatever, I’ll buy them both.
Wow. They all look so amazing. I would have to go with the Cookiepedia book first… and then all the rest :-)
Who could resist settling down with Pioneer Woman and reminiscing about Back in the Day goodies.
For sure Pie It Forward… I am a sucker for pie as is my husband and inlaws! My grandma always made the most delicious pies….
Home baked comfort sounds yummy!!!
Oh my, how to choose, how to choose. I guess I’d start with the bread book. Homemade bread, still warm, fresh from the oven, mmmm. Soft butter to go with it. Lots of butter. And I won’t apologize for that, either! LOL!
This post made me hungry! Hope you are doing well and feeling good.
choose one?! oh boy, I think I would have to choose either sugar baby or the hand held pies. Who loves pies that dont require a fork?! *raises hand*
I want Hand held pies…. What a combo! Pie….yummy and the petfect size!
I am beyond jealous of your cookbook collection! I am dying to try Jeni’s Icecream book….it looks amazing.
The Divvies Bakery Cookbook would be my pick for sure! I’m always looking for good dairy/egg free recipes for my son!
Sweet Auburn Desserts and Handheld Pies!
They all look splendid, but I would start with the Hand Held pies!
Milk & Cookies, Home Baked Comfort & PW’s newest!
I was so excited to see that we have similar taste in cookbooks. I already have several of these but could always use more!! shh, don’t tell my husband. I’d love to get my hands on the Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook-that couple is too cute!!
