I've made several recipes from this book and some have been amazing:

* banana espresso chocolate chip muffins
* chocolate chip cookies
* pumpkin chocolate chip loaf
* peanut butter crispy bars

Some are between good and great:

* bourbon chocolate pecan pie
* brownies
* pumpkin whoopie pies

So far, only one recipe was between okay and good (root beer cake: thought the frosting was way too sweet, but willing to give it another try).

Recipes are easy to follow, and there are unique recipes here that I haven't seen in other books (waiting to try the chocolate malt ball cake and the sweet and salty cake). And now I have a big crush on Renato.
