5.0 out of 5 stars A Fool-proof Recipe for a Perfect Cup of Coffee, January 15, 1999

This review is from: Coffeetime Indulgences: 68 Irresistible Recipes to Serve with Coffee-Morning, Noon, or Night (Paperback)

During the past five years of graduate school, I have had the good fortune to live in a house with a copy of this cookbook. The one request I have before leaving for Australia - a copy of my own. Every recipe I have made, from the Lemon Yogurt Pound Cake to the Blueberry Cream Pie, has been a success. I would recommend this book for every home cook as an invaluable resource for perfect coffee-friendly delicacies.
