2017 has been a good year for cookbooks. There have been a wide variety of new books published. This selection includes cookbooks by celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Zac Posen – as well as cookbooks by famous chefs like Bobby Flay, Wylie Dufresne, Jacques Pepin and Richard Blais.
But, for recipes to use for holiday gifting, I have a favorite cookbook release this year and I would like to share the title with you today on Friday field trip.
The book? Holiday Cookies: Showstopping Recipes to Sweeten the Season by Elisabet der Nederlanden. With some intriguing new dessert recipes accompanied by fabulous photos, I am really enamored with this book! Can you tell why based on the few photos here?!
The holidays are a time when most people succumb to food temptations and I am no different! For me, it is definitely a new sweet that will do me in! On Thanksgiving it is all about Eileen’s lemon meringue pie…as far as Christmas is concerned? You never know!
Because baking is my favorite, I add some new recipes to my holiday repertoire each year – adding some new treats to include with my old standbys! Making something new to gift to others is a special part of my holiday routine. This year, the new recipes I try are definitely coming out of Nederlanden’s book!
I can’t wait to share my creations with you on future Friday field trips!
Browse through some of this year’s new cookbooks at your local library! I hope you are inspired to try at least one new dessert recipe this holiday season! ;)
Thanks for stopping by!
Have a fabulous weekend and remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
