About this Event
About the Book:
A collection of 100-plus unfussy, oh-so-good sweet and savory recipes from the best-selling author and founder of Milk Bar!
Newbies and seasoned pros, ages 10 and 100, sweet tooths and savory sorts: Christina Tosi's Bake Club is open to everyone. Covering all the categories of the baking universe—from English Muffins to Glazed Pumpkin Pie Bars, Gummy Bears to Crème Brulée —these are recipes designed to empower home bakers to have fun in the kitchen and to dispel all baking misconceptions: I don’t have enough time, I don’t have the right ingredients, I don’t have a standing mixer, and I’m a terrible baker. That means no fancy ingredients or equipment are required—and modifications are very much allowed! Disarmingly doable yet show-stoppingly impressive, the 100-plus recipes that make up Bake Club are classic Tosi creations—simple, inviting, and eminently bakeable.
