Summary

From the author of French Toast: Stacked, Stuffed, Baked, sweet and savory variations of the classic Mexican dish. Simply put, the quesadilla is a delightful package of melted cheesy goodness―all sandwiched inside crispy tortillas. But now these little gooey snacks have evolved into savory meals and scrumptious desserts that are bursting with flavor. Made to fill any amount of hunger, quesadillas can be stuffed with foods and spices from almost any culture. You can try all sorts of mouthwatering combinations like the BLT, Thai Peanut, Roasted Veggie and Goat Cheese, Parmesan-Crusted Italian, Philly Cheesesteak, Roasted Ratatouille, and Chicken Caesar. Even dessert quesadillas like Triple Chocolate Decadence, Peanut Butter Apple, and S’mores have made their debut. Quesadillas are so simple, delicious, and easy to make. So, why not make your favorite meal or dessert into a quesadilla?“After an introduction featuring cooking techniques, ingredient tips, and serving suggestions, Kelly…shares specific instructions for beginners on, e.g., how to remove pepper seeds…These simple recipes, with ten ingredients or fewer, are perfect to make with children. Highly recommended.”—Library Journal

    Conquer your fear of flour with a cookbook that “takes the intimidation factor out of baking with easy-to-follow recipes” (Publishers Weekly).   Warren Brown, the founder of CakeLove bakeries, wants you to bake your cake and eat it too—and even better, enjoy the moment in which you present your made-from-scratch masterpiece to bedazzled, hungry-eyed family and friends.   For Brown, love and baking are inseparable. After all, he abandoned his unfulfilling career in law to do the work he finds truly emotionally satisfying. Every page of CakeLove communicates that satisfaction, as well as Brown’s can-do approach to the art of baking. As he points out, baking cakes isn’t a cakewalk, but it’s not rocket science, either—and getting it right isn’t nearly as hard as you think.   With an “entertaining” style (Publisher Weekly), gentle guidance, and clear information on ingredients, equipment, and techniques, CakeLove teaches you how to make pound cakes, butter cakes, sponge cakes, cupcakes, glazes, frostings, fillings, meringues, and more!
