MY REVIEW:  "Dessert Cooking for Two"--from food writer, blogger, and recipe developer Robin Donovan features 115 dessert recipes for every occasion. While there are few photos to accompany the recipes, and there are no nutritional breakdowns, there are cooking tips and helpful hints scattered throughout the pages. Advice on portioning and shopping for two is also included.The variety and originality of the recipes is excellent, and after reading the book, I was so hungry for a sweet treat! Recipes are labeled into 4 categories: "Quick"; :No-Bake"; "Mini-Equipment"; and "Lightly Sweet". There is a very helpful section which explains three different techniques for melting chocolate. Readers are encouraged to use dessert-appropriate leftovers to make their own inspired creations. I couldn't wait, and I tried "Dark Chocolate Pudding" and "Coffee and Cream Brownies" as soon as I could make them--they were scrumptious! Here are some more of the many delicious recipes you'll find: "Toffee Pecan Sandies"; "White Chocolate Butter Cookies"; "Blueberry Cheesecake Bars"; "Coffee Crumb Cake"; "Mini Carrot Cakes"; "Banana Cream Mini Pies"; "Pear and Coconut Crisp"; and "Butterscotch Bread Pudding". Treat yourself well and indulge without over-indulging.
