The New Best of BetterBaking.com: More Than 200 Classic Recipes from the Beloved Baker's Website

Just like all of Marcy's books, this one promises to hold a place of distinction in my growing cookbook collection. Along with some favorites, there are many new recipes, with beautiful full-color pictures, that will certainly be added to my baking repertoire as soon as I get into the kitchen this weekend. I already know that I want to start with the chapter called "The Cookie and Biscotti Jar," followed immediately by "Scone and Muffin Mania." Along with each recipe are the author's suggestions for keeping, freezing, and changing-up to make the end products your own, as well as a little bit about how the recipe got into the book. For my younger son, I will start with Killer Chocolate Layer Cake, made entirely with ingredients on hand. We are all big Marcy Goldman fans in my house, and her latest cookbook is sure to be a huge hit in your home, too. Don't forget to visit her website at BetterBaking.com for more of her famous innovative creations!

Okay, I admit to a cookbook addiction. Marcy is my favorite for all things baking. Her books are beautiful. Her manor is friendly, informative and very easy to follow. I enjoy it as much for her storied introductions and tips as well as the amazing recipes. I have three books of hers and don't find a lot of repeats. I definitely think this would be a great primer for first time bakers. The suggested materials section is great. I learned about different flours through her and it does make a difference. Am ordering one of these for my nieces upcoming wedding shower and will use the material guide to include a few baking pans,etc. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to be a baking star!

You will feel as if you are having a cup of coffee with a friend as you read anything written by Marcy Goldman! I loved her recipe blog & subscription recipe service way back years ago. I was so tickled when I found this copy used & snatched it up. It's more than a cookbook. it's great reading!

So far, everything delicious. Would have preferred all measurements by weight though. Condition of book not as described. Was beaten up and written in, a lot. No bueno.

This is such a nice book, it's one of the first cookbooks that I boughtfor my son who is going to culinary school. He loves all of the goodinformation that is in this book as well as the recipes, they are great.I would highly recommend this book to anyone.

this book is great! good recipes easy to make not requiring some exotic ingredient that you have to search allover for only to never use again!

This book contains a recipe for carrot cake that rivals any carrot cake I've ever had. In my opinion, this recipe alone was worth the price of the book!

I've got all of Marcy Goldman's books now. And this one is just as good as the rest of them. I can't wait till her new book comes out in the fall.

Had her book some 15 - 20 yrs ago. This presents the same problems as with all American cookery books in that there is no conversion to British 'measures' and you cannot make guesstimates - have since obtained a reliable conversion chart and am delighted with all her recipes

Top notch content and information. The formatting is well organized and the book is visually appealing. Every recipe that I have made has been bakery quality. Thank you Mary.

great book

I have had many cook books over the years, this one is the best ever. It gets pulled out of the book shelf more than any other baking book. Love it!!!

Excellent book. Not only do the recipes work (I know this from having appreciated Marcy Goldman's contributions to the Washington Post over 20 years ago) but her style is clever and funny. A true pleasure.
