Mollie Katzen's Recipes: Desserts

by Mollie Katzen

From the best-selling author of the MOOSEWOOD COOKBOOK comes this signature collection of 50 dessert recipes in an appealing, compact easel format for easy reference.

Mollie Katzen has been credited with moving vegetarian cooking from the fringes of American kitchens to mainstream dinner tables. She knows there are few pleasures greater than pulling perfectly moist brownies out of the oven or polishing off the perfect cheesecake. Celebrating the MOOSEWOOD COOKBOOK's 30th anniversary, the third easel book in the MOLLIE KATZEN'S RECIPES series brings together Mollie's much-loved sweets from the MOOSEWOOD COOKBOOK and the ENCHANTED BROCCOLI FOREST in this convenient stand-up easel format. Each recipe is lovingly hand lettered and illustrated with Mollie's distinctive pen-and-ink drawings, making this timeless collection the perfect kitchen countertop companion.
