Being single and I love to cook, it can be difficult to reduce recipes meant for 4 to 6, or more servings and have the recipe turn out right. This book of recipes provides me a fun way to cook knowing it'll turn out right and tasting like it should. Plus I won't have lots of leftovers! You won't be sorry if you pick this one up.

Everytime I cook something from this book my husband loves it -- just once! No more leftovers! You can through out your Tupperware and start cooking the right amount for two. The ones I've tried have been really tasty and healthy too; the portions aren't skimpy either. I like that the nutrition info is so clear.

Small-Batch Baking Review

Okay, so I love to bake. Unfortunately, there are only two people in my household and both of us have, um, "portion control problems".
Since most of my favorite cookie recipes yield several dozen and making just PART of a cake is nearly impossible, my boyfriend and I often end up eating way more than we actually want. Sometimes I'll try to pass off my baked goods to co-workers, but (and I'm being painfully honest here) I usually polish off the batch myself in less than 3 days.
I know all that sugar is no good for me, but I can't imagine not having cakes and cookies once in a while. Life's too short to cut out something I enjoy so much!
When I came across this book, it was like I stumbled across a puzzle piece I hadn't noticed was missing. The cake recipes make single or double servings! The cookie recipies make less than a dozen! I've tried cutting regular recipes in half, but the results are never quite right. With this book, you're measuring ingredients in tablespoons instead cups, and the two recipes I've tried have turned out beautifully.
The peanut butter cookie recipe made 8 perfect cookies and tonight I tried a recipe for two giant oatmeal cookies. Perfect again. I can't wait to try to make the small cakes, little breads and even a baby Baklava!
I expect that this book will change the way I bake forever. It's nice to make a dessert that I can enjoy without feeling like a jerk for enjoying way too much of it.
