The Complete Magnolia Bakery Cookbook
Shop Notes:
I was going to start this cookbook review by telling you how many times I've gotten marriage proposals from bringing my adaptation of Magnolia Bakery's banana pudding to various picnics, cookouts, potlucks, and parties over the years (no less than 5, it's that good). But, this cookbook, written by the founders on NYC's ever popular Magnolia Bakery, has a lot more to offer than one single, astoundingly delicious recipe. The Maple Walnut Layer Cake with Fluffy Maple icing will make you teary-eyed for the love of heaven and desserts. The Magic Cookie Bars will be a lunchbox staple for both you and the kiddos. Tips and tricks for how to translate recipes from a homemade love affair to production standards would be useful for those interested in expanding their life's work or feeding a well-loved army.
