Taking cookbooks out from the library

Recommended by Jeannette

If the cookbook looks good, I try to make at least one recipe from that book. If I make a few, then I'll buy the book. That's what I did with Yossy Arefi's cookbook Snacking Cakes.

You can also get them as ebooks and look at them on a desktop or ipad (or phone but that’s too small for me)

I have never used the Libby app to take cookbooks from the library! That's a whole new realm!

Snacking Cakes: Simple Treats for Anytime Cravings

Allison Doherty

“A baking book that I’ve nearly baked all the recipes from with many repeats. I get requests from people for the cakes from this book. Best part is majority are pretty simple mix and pours, and there’s recommendations with each recipe on how to mix it up.”

“The rhubarb cake and sesame cake are my favorites but word has it the oatmeal chocolate chip cake is 10/10 too.”
