Author and trained chef Chris Reynolds has written a beautiful Kindle cookbook filled with numerous color images depicting the various baked goods. He has carefully laid out the cookbook so it is a delight for they eyes to read. I do wish he had put in a complete active table of contents rather than explaining how to search for a recipe in his cookbook. His cookbook is so large it truly would have been better with an active table of contents.What I do LOVE about this cookbook is how the author has personally tested the recipes at a 5,000 plus elevation. From what I've been told, baking at high altitudes can be a bit tricky. The author does offer general baking tips on how to adapt recipes for high altitude baking while offering a large selection of recipes.Some of the recipes you will find in his cookbook include:Maple-Glazed Applesauce CookiesPeanut BrittleSpicy-Lowfat GranolaBacon-Cheddar Dog Bones (a treat for your family dog)Peanut Butter Bacon CookiesRustic BreadOlive BreadEnglish Muffin BreadCakey SconesSunday Morning PancakesSummer Fruit TartChocolate Truffle TartPepper Jack Mac and Cheese"Boulder Blackout" aka Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake with Chocolate or Vanilla FrostingHis cookbook is a good value as there are numerous recipes waiting to be prepared. Four stars given due to the lack of an active table of contents.Highly recommend with caveats given.
