Dating 1987 this book is a must have priced at $2.50 plus shipping @ Books, Books & More - Adopt a Book

Desserts are easier than ever to make, thanks to modern technology, many excellent cookbooks and quick, ready mixes.  Food processors, blenders, and microwave and convection ovens make quick work of baking - a chore that once took hours.  And with the high cost of food, making your own mix is a great way to save money.  The recipes within this book have been gathered from everywhere with the intent of tempting you to create a culinary wonder with or for your loved ones.  There are old favorites as well as classics plus a bountiful selection of new ideas to tempt your palate.

This book contains hundreds of tempting desserts that are simply delicious.  Recipes consist of Cocoa Swirl Coffee Cake with Orange Glaze, Sherried Banana Cake, Bananas Royale, Microwaved, Mango Souffle, and Pear Pudding Pie, just to mention a few. 

Copyright 1987 this paperback measures 11 x 8 x 1/2 (approx.) and contains 224 pages.  On a scale of 1 - 10 with 10 being 'like new' I rate this copy an 8.  The cover has one back corner that has a bend but other than that it's in wonderful condition.

Books, Books & More



Books, Books and More is the perfect place to search for that next cookbook, mystery, kids book and even history.  You'll also find unique items that you probably won't find elsewhere.  And everything is priced just right!  So check through the listings and see what you might be missing.

All books and items are sold barely over what was paid for them.  My main goal is to find a nice home for them and keep them in circulation.  Many of the books are old and can be found in no other format, which means once they are gone they are gone forever. 

Most items listed on this site are found at Estate Sales and due to that I have no way of knowing if the house had a smoker.  I do everything I can to make sure there is no smoke smell and even musk smells attached to the vintage books and items.
