Great Beginner's baking Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Quick Fixes with Mixes (Plastic Comb)
I purchased this for my niece and she just loves it, she is just starting out to be the baker in her family and having a book that you use a cake mix and just add a few simple ingredients makes this book wonderful. Who thought you could make a great cookie from a cake mix box and a few other items. Heck I think I will buy one for myself. Hope this helps!!

GREAT SHORTCUT FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT LIKE THE WORK OF BAKING!,
By Karmakafebargains "Karmakafebargains" (Upstate NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Quick Fixes with Mixes (Paperback)
LIKE THE FEW INGREDIENTS THAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THESE GOODIES! GREAT BOOK FOR THE HOLIDAYS, OR FOR SOMEONE WHO IS BUSY. BAKING IS SO MUCH WORK AND MADE MUCH MORE EASY WITH THIS BOOK. NO ELABORATE INGREDIENTS REQUIRED LIKE SOME COOKBOOKS.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Very happy,

This review is from: Quick Fixes with Mixes (Paperback)
I had this cookbook for years and loved it. I brought it to work for someone to copy some recipies and it dissappeared. It is no longer in print so I was devastated. When I searched Amazon, I found just a couple of copies left and had to order mine. Thank goodness this great little cookbook is back with me where it belongs and it is never again leaving my house!
