February 10, 2004
Store-bought unbaked pie crusts, pizza crusts, sweet and savory breads, cookies, bars, and other ready-to-use doughs are put to truly creative and time-saving use in Ready, Set, Dough!

Helping to beat the clock without sacrificing taste and quality, expert quick-cook Melanie Barnard provides a complete range of appetizers, snacks, one-dish suppers, breads, and desserts no one will guess you didn’t make from scratch.

Memorable desserts, ranging from a Rustic Apple-Cranberry Tart to Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Torte--as well as a delectable array of cobblers and pies--are a cinch to prepare. Need something for the bake sale your kids forgot to mention? Whip up a batch of Double Peanut Butter Cookies or Chocolate Chip Brownie Custard Bars. For breakfast, try one of Barnard’s trouble-free sweet breads--Baked Jelly Doughnuts or Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Bread, for instance. The quick and easy recipes in Ready, Set, Dough! will turn even a novice cook into a fearless baker.

3.0 out of 5 stars Easy enough for a guy, April 1, 2004

This review is from: Ready, Set, Dough!: Incredibly Easy and Delicious Ways to Use Store-Bought Doughs (Paperback)
As a guy who likes to cook once in a while but not worry about getting it right from scratch, I found this book's recipes easy to follow and the results as good as from scratch. No one knew. I was a little disappointed because the first recipe I made, the citrus tart, has a mistake in it (it listed an ingredient but that ingredient wasn't included in the directions!), so it left me wondering about the rest of the recipes' accuracy. But overall a good variety of recipes for any occassion. Beware there are no pictures, just a few drawings.
