Nonfiction.
HTML:One Girl Cookies shares more than 50 recipes from the popular New York City bakery of the same name, as well as the sweet story behind its beginnings. Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street in Brooklyn, New York, is One Girl Cookies: a charming bakery and café whose owners have created what they call an Urban Mayberry. This dessert destination—famous for its gorgeous bite-sized cookies, amazingly moist cakes, seasonal pies and tarts, and dangerously addictive whoopie pies—started simply, with one girl baking cookies out of a tiny apartment. From simple old-fashioned confections such as Lemon Bars and Strawberry Rhubarb Pie with Spiced Oat Crumble to modern treats like Orange Butter Drops with Shredded Coconut and Pumpkin Whoopie Pies with Maple Spiced Filling, the recipes featured here will impress and delight anyone lucky enough to get a taste. With beautiful color photos and tips for wrapping and gift-giving, One Girl Cookies will become a cherished addition to every passionate baker’s kitchen. No library descriptions found. |

Recipes are delicious -- the whoopie pies were shared with neighbors and co-workers and EVERYONE (well except for Jake that is) loved them - Wife actually made them too -- its my favorite thing she has made so far
Good variety of baked goods to make
Introduction is a little long winded for people like me who don't like to read, but book addict wife enjoyed the story. Wife really enjoyed this one so much that when she goes to New York in June she is going to visit the bakery (and she better bring back lots for me since I will be watching the kids by myself)
The directions in the recipe make sense and are easy to follow
The pictures of the finished product are simple, yet elegant and make you want to make them
Nice introduction to each of the recipes
I want to make quite a few of the recipes from this one. We actually bought the ingredients this weekend to make 3 more of the recipes. I will add the pictures as we make them. Tonight we are making the healthy Multigrain Muffin recipe that actually looks like it tastes good
Packaging ideas is a nice added bonus
There is a recipe for homemade butter (Which I have actually done by accident)
The Not So Good Stuff
More pictures would have been nice (that's for the wife --she LOVES to read, but gets all cranky if there aren't enough pictures in a recipe book -- hmm really makes sense doesn't it)
Many of the recipes are time consuming and use a lot of ingredients which may turn off more basic bakers
Do you have any idea how hard it is to find Dulce De Leche, Hawaiian Sea Salt and Dutch Processed Cocoa Powder in Bolton -- trust me I spent a lot of money on gas going from store to store

Who Should/Shouldn't Use
More for the intermediate to advanced baker
With patience a beginner baker could make, but wouldn't recommend it

I received this from Random House in exchange for an honest review -- I will make you something nice from this for the OLA (Not the whoopie cookies though -- would be too hard to transport) (
