Duff provides 130 recipes for a diverse range of goodies, including nutter butter cookies, white chocolate blondies, apple streusel muffins, cereal bars, bacon jalapeno biscuits, banana bourbon cream pie, zucchini lemon cake, and savory bread pudding. Here are a few classics as well, like a re-make of the childhood favorite, Twinkies. Duff Bakes will help both novices and seasoned bakers master the best, most delicious home baked goods, build on their baking successes, hone their skills, and understand the science behind the fundamentals of baking.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Goldman's follow-up to his successful Ace of Cakes cookbook is just as appealing as its predecessor. Goldman, a TV personality and owner of Baltimore's Charm City Cakes, and Gonzalez, the head baker at Goldman's Charm City Cakes West in L.A., team up to offer readers a litany of tips and practical recipes for all things flour based (as well as an entire chapter that focuses exclusively on vegan and/or gluten-free fare). The duo offer a nice mix of classics such as pecan pie, focaccia, carrot cake, and an apple pear galette, as well as inventive riffs such as Elvis Cookies a savory-sweet blend of chocolate chips, bacon, bananas, and pretzel crumbs and chorizo and manchego scones. The reliable sources for ingredients and guidance help readers feel comfortable making their own pie crusts and blueberry muffins before trying their hand at more challenging fare. Rounded out with plenty of salient tips on everything from selecting the right blowtorch (hit the hardware store) to getting cheesecake out of a cake pan (briefly warm the bottom over the stove top), Goldman and Gonzalez's thoughtful instructions are sure to inspire and embolden readers.
