4.0 out of 5 stars Quick Treats on the Run January 30, 2012

By H. Jones

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

Among the wonderful talents I inherited from my European grandparents, I did not obtain intuitive cooking skills. My mother can do wonders with a cup of cocoa, two eggs, flour, and an assortment of spices. I don't think she has looked at a recipe since she was 21. For the rest of us mortals, recipe collections are an essential component to feeding ourselves more than raw foods or burnt concoctions vaguely resembling something palatable. My highest praise is often reserved for illustrated volumes with straightforward instructions to create delicious, inspired meals which do not require a French sous-chef and a PhD in particle physics or mathematics to accomplish. There's an extra star for attempts to be healthy in an era of health consciousness, though I respect a dessert book may be challenged by keeping calories.

Refrigerator Cake Recipes fits the bill as a concise trove of opulent delectables that won't require some unusual techniques guaranteed to put terror into the hearts of aspiring bakers and cookers. Put down the blow torch, pick up a spatula, and head to the races. There are no hard to find ingredients that require a trip to a specialty shop for a tiny bottle of vintage pressed truffle oil that costs more than the rest of the cake combined. Intelligent, well-laid out recipes burst off the page to take your hunger by the horns. Imagination is sure to follow with ways to dress up good standbys. The tone is neither intimidating nor too basic for accomplished kitchenistas, and it strikes a nice balance on either end. I especially enjoy how many of these recipes can be dressed up or modified for taste, and not in a way that requires intense alteration or consideration. Chocolate cakes can be swirled and swizzled under raspberry syrups or a caramel sauce, but the trick of making a good foundation is laid out well in a series of delicious cakes.

The best part? You can stick them in the fridge. In my household, a cake which isn't hidden away or wrapped in nine layers of saran-wrap will be assaulted on all sides by hungry beau and roommate and friends. More to the point, my hectic schedule doesn't allow me to whip up a fluffy, moist cake an hour or two ahead of time. I may need to do it the night before and trust the cake will: a) survive, b) turn out okay, c) endure transportation between my house and the party event. If this sounds familiar, this book is a /godsend/ for cakes which hold up and in fact improve after some time chilling out beside the milk and the pickles.

Everyone in the house appreciated my first try, and little did they know I had trusty Frigidaire at my side. I'll be referring to this again for an upcoming birthday party, and I feel confident thanks to the good selection of recipes.

Do not come to this book hungry or you may be tempted to nosh on the batter. That's a dangerous distraction.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice resource January 29, 2012

By Isadore Ann VINE™ VOICE

I was a little apprehensive when I saw this, because I'm not much for non-traditional cakes. But I was pleasantly surprised. There are several that have an interesting little twist that will make it better than just some frozen or chilled cake. The recipes are laid out in such a way that they also fill you with ideas on what you can do yourself just by substituting a few ingredients.

I thought the collection was a good one, and the instructions were simple enough where just about any cook could complete them with success.

3.0 out of 5 stars Tasty, but packaged May 21, 2012

By SLB

These are not "cakes", per se. They are frozen or refrigerated desserts. They make use of boxed cookies, Cool Whip, gelatin, boxed pudding mix, cake mix, frozen strawberries, etc. I don't mind some of those things, although I draw the line at Cool Whip. If you are looking for something sweet to throw together quickly, you'll find it here. If you're looking for "homemade", you're out of luck. But it will give you ideas of how to create your own versions with fresher ingredients -- although if you're working from scratch anyway, I don't see how these would necessarily improve your work.

More About the Author

Hi!

I'm Lori Burke, the Best-Selling author of Best Ever Christmas Dessert Recipes, 30 Delicious Poke Cake Recipes, 30 Delicious Dump Cake Recipes,30 Delicious Ice Cream Cake Recipes, 30 Delicious Refrigerator Cake Recipes, 30 Delicious Family Favorite Cake Recipes, 30 Delicious Brownie & Bar Recipes and 30 Delicious Icebox Cookie Recipes.

I have been an avid baker and cook my entire life. I learned to cook from my Polish Dad and Italian Mom. We had some very interesting meals in our home :) I married my college sweetheart and we have two beautiful children. I'm a regular person who juggles work and family.

I LOVE to bake but often don't have time for traditional oven-baked cakes or rolled dough cookies. Over the years I've collected recipes that are Quick, Simple, Delicious and Fun to make.

In Best Ever Christmas Dessert Recipes I wanted to share some of the traditional Christmas dessert recipes from my childhood along with more contemporary recipes that I collected throughout the years. You'll find Christmas cookie, cake, bread, dessert and drink recipes. Try the Italian Hot Chocolate ~ it's DELICIOUS and so different from standard hot chocolate!

Poke Cakes are so much fun to make! You bake a cake and poke holes into the top. Then you pour Jell-O gelatin or Jell-O pudding or homemade fruit syrups and purees over the holes and chill the cake. After that you add sliced fresh fruit on top. Toppings include sweetened whipped cream or Cool-Whip or anything you'd like. You're only limited by your creativity with Poke Cakes. Kids also LOVE helping to make these cakes!


Dump Cakes are cobblers and they are so delicious ! The Dump Cake recipes are simple, take 5 to 10 minutes of prep time and just 45 minutes to 1 hour to bake.

I also enjoy fast, easy-to-make Refrigerator Cake recipes that I can whip together quickly when I get home. Finally I published my favorite recipes for slice and bake cookies that are quick, easy and delicious.

I love to make Ice Cream Cakes for birthdays and special occasions. My family loves them and there are never any leftovers. You can't beat ice cream, cake, whipped cream and your choice of ice cream toppings and nuts. Mmmmmmmm!!


I love quick and easy Brownie and Bar recipes that I can make on weekends for my family. I've included both bake from scratch and cake mix recipes in my Brownie and Bar Cookbook.

I started making Icebox Cookies years ago. I wanted to have cookies in the freezer when my kids got home from school and we got home from work. I found it was so easy to make roll cookies from scratch and they were much healthier than store-bought cookies.

There are special cakes that I make for family gatherings. I decided to share them all in the Family Favorite Cake cookbook.

My husband and kids love these tasty cakes and cookies. I really hope you like them too. :)
