OK but nothing beats KOSHER PALETTE/S.FISHBEIN

THESE RECIPES ARE OK BUT SUSIE FISHBEIN IS FOOL-PROOF. ESPECIALLY KOSHER PALETTE WHICH SHE EDITED BUT DIDN'T WRITE!

Great Desserts

I have recently had to cut diary products from my diet for health reasons. Being a dessert fanatic made this very difficult until I got this book. I have made several recipes including the traditional apple pie and brownies. Everyone who has tasted them thought they were outstanding. It is great that the recipies use all parave products such a margarine and soy milk, it allows us lactose intollerant people to enjoy desserts again!!!

I also felt the need to chime in here. I LOVE this cookbook. Everything comes out perfect and delicious (except the chocolate ganache which was quite a mess). My guests actually recognized Doris' Blackout Cake and said it tasted exactly like the one at the restaurant. The double chocolate chip cookies are incredible. The entire "pie and tart" section is wonderful. And I think the basic vanilla and chocolate cakes are perfect and delicious. This is one of my favorite dessert cookbooks and my "go to" book whenever I need an impressive dessert.

completely reliable

I've never done this before, but had to pipe in to defend this book-- every recipe I've tried from it has come out delicious the first time; I'm truly shocked to see that they didn't work for other people, as I'm no baker. The double-chocolate cookies and the biscotti recipes are now standards in my house.
