Bravetart: iconic American desserts by Stella Parks
I can't remember now how I heard about this cookbook but it seemed really interesting. While there were a few recipes I want to try, a lot of the recipes had tedious amounts of work or odd ingredients. It didn't seem like it was really geared for the home baker, or at least a more advanced home baker. If you want to try to make your own at-home versions of popular snack cakes, cookies, or candy bars then this is definitely the cookbook for you. While I'm all about making things from scratch, sometimes it's OK to just buy a candy bar.
Spend With Pennies Everyday Comfort by Holly Nilsson
Holly Nilsson started her blog, Spend with Pennies, as a way to share her love of cooking with the world. Good, homemade food doesn't have to involve tons of ingredients or rare spices to be good. In this cookbook, Everyday Comfort she shares budget conscious meals that will satisfy your family. There were LOTS of recipes I'd like to try and this is one I might consider buying because there were just SO MANY recipes that looked simple, yet really good. The recipes are divided into several categories like weeknight meals, pasta, sheet pan dinners, etc. and I really liked that she had a separate chapter for recipes with ground beef, and one for chicken. Overall, I was really impressed with this cookbook. This is one I would definitely recommend.
