About this Event
For the Spring 2026 session, we're doing "I'll Bring Dessert" by Benjamina Ebuehi.
About the Book/Author: For Spring, we're going across the pond! Beloved British cookbook author (and semi-finalist on Great British Bake Off in 2016!) Benjamina Ebuehi writes cozy, flavorful recipes for real life with a touch of elegance and whimsy. This is her third book and it's full of recipes that are meant to be shared, even transported to a gathering (like, to a cookbook club pot luck perhaps?) And don't worry, she provides measurements in grams, but also cups and ounces for those who haven't yet made the switch ;-)
How the "Cookbook Club" pot luck gathering works
- Buy or borrow the featured cookbook
- Make a recipe from the book and bring it to share (pot luck style)
- Each participant 1 minute "show & tell": what you made, any adjustments you recommend, etc (sample agenda below)
- Taste the dishes!
- Share & learn with others in a fun, friendly environment-- and have lots of fun with fellow cookbook enthusiasts!
By registering for a Muddy's event, you agree to our . Please note that this is a pot luck hosted by Muddy's, but the food is made in individuals' home kitchens. Dishes are prepared and consumed in good faith and at your own risk.

ABOUT MUDDY'S COOKBOOK CLUB
Cookbook club exists to further create community in the kitchen! Participants share their thoughts about the cookbook AND an actual dish they made from it.
How are the cookbooks selected? Kat (owner) chooses, but feel free to nominate one. :-)
Is the book included in the ticket price? No. Participants are on their own to purchase (or borrow) the book. Novel offers a 10% disount to Muddy's Cookbook Club participants- check confirmation email for your code!
Who can participate? Anyone interested in cookbooks & community! Participants under the age of 15 must be mature enough to participate considerately and be accompanied by a participating adult; each will need their own ticket.
How many servings do I need to bring? Just make the normal yield of the recipe. We will do taster sizes and as everyone brings a prepared recipe, we should have PLENTY to go around plus some left over for take home plates!
Where can I find a list of past Cookbook Club books? Check out my Bookshop.org book list for all my cookbook recommendations, including a round-up of past cookbook club books!
Is the event wheelchair accessible? Yes! Tables are height-adjustable, so just let us know ahead of time and so we can have the table and your spot all ready for you!
What about cancellations? Space is limited, so ticket sales are final. If you can't make it, you may gift your ticket to a friend. If Muddy's must cancel the event, we will inform you asap and fully refund your ticket.
