Ten years ago my husband and I became empty nesters and at first, it was a hard adjustment for us both. It was really odd to come home from work at night and to walk into a quiet house. As the weeks flew by, we grew into loving our empty-nester life and all of the things that come along with it.
When it comes to cooking and baking, I had to learn to downsize our meal prep and the type’s or recipes that I make. With it now just being the two of us, I found that I had to cut most recipes in-half to get the serving size to be perfect. To make things a lot easier when it comes to baking, I’m super excited to introduce you to this new cookbook!
Title: 175 Small-Batch Baking Recipes
Author: Jill Snider
Publisher: Robert Rose
ISBN: 978-0-7788-0561-8
The 175 Small-Batch Baking Recipes book offers a fantastic collection of small-batch baking recipes that offers sweet satisfaction with simple preparation. The treats are perfect whenever you need a sweet indulgence but don’t want to commit to the time and hassle of preparing a full batch that you probably won’t finish anyway.
This cookbook is perfect for those who want to limit their consumption of sweets & don’t want extras on-hand to tempt you, or for those of you who just need a little pick-me-up throughout the day or for people like my husband and I who are now empty-nesters.
Inside this book you’ll find 175 recipes like:
Raspberry Coconut Pinwheels
Black Forest Cookies
Key Lime Coconut Macaroons
Apricot Fig Pinwheels
Crunchy Almond Crescents
Peanut Fudgies
Chocolate-Dipped Brownie Mounds
Two-Tone Dream Bars
Caramel Apple Bars
Blueberry Cheesecake Bars
Pink Coconut Squares
Frosted Carrot Nut Bars
Cranberry Pistachio Squares
Rocky Road Chocolate Bars
Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp
+ Many More!
The book is broken down in easy-to-read chapters: Cookies, Bars & Squares, Quick Breads, Cakes, Mini Pies & Tarts, Spoonable Desserts and Gluten-Free Desserts. In the beginning of the book you’ll find a nice introduction, a section on basic baking equipment that you’ll need, baking ingredients and I really enjoyed the baking tips and techniques. This book is perfect for newbie bakers and expert bakers, alike!
With summer and the hot season just around the corner, I’m looking forward to making a few of the no-bake bars recipes that are in this book and since I’m a homemade cookies addict, I’m all over the cookies chapter in the book. Just last week I whipped up a batch of the Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies and absolutely loved them!!!
