4.0 out of 5 starsClassic American Desserts
By H. Ross on July 2, 2012
Format: Paperback
This is an absolute must for anyone interested in American cookies, cakes and pastries. Rosie's recipes are wonderfully delicious, but can be cumbersome with measurements.

In particular, the Nutmeg Sour Cream Cookies, the HoneyPot bars, and the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies are excellent. While the Orgasm brownie is Rosie's Bakery signature item, I think the recipe is a bit lacking. I think Dorie Greenspan's brownie recipes are better.

Rosie Measures the brown sugar in tablespoons instead of cups and I find this extremely cumbersome. I've taken the steps of converting my favorite recipes to weight measurements by ounce to ensure more precision.

An experience home baker will have no problem with this book, as the recipes are classic and the technique is simple. Watch out for the tablespoon measurements and make notes about cups/ounce conversions.

5.0 out of 5 starsBest dessert cookbook ever!
By Designer on March 7, 2016
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
For those who have complained in the comments that the recipes are too involved, I'm a little shocked. Yes, there are several steps but no more than an average America's Test Kitchen recipe. And the results you get are definitely worth it. The sugar cookies are the first nice crisp recipe I've tried. The gingerbread cookies were a huge hit. Actually almost everything I've tried has been a huge hit. I need to space out how often I try new recipes but even though it's all-butter, cream-filled and sugar-packed I feel better knowing exactly what goes into my recipe than ordering sweets out. And I get to lick the bowl this way. :)

5.0 out of 5 starsBest Baking Book!
By Sharon Stewart on December 4, 2011
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I have had her 1st book since it was published in 1991 and now I have it's awesome revision with tons of new recipes! It is the only baking book I ever use. It is also the only cookbook that I own without beautiful picture, but her descriptions are so good you can almost taste them!

5.0 out of 5 starsWon a blue ribbon at the state fair thanks to Rosie!
By J. Westenhaver on March 9, 2012
Format: Paperback
I bought the original edition back in 1990's when I was a newlywed and didn't know much about baking. I have learned a lot since then and made probably two dozen of her recipes from this book--all wonderful. Her peanut butter cookies are my family's favorite and I have tried a ton of different recipes. The best recipe in this book is the Honeypots. I made these for our state fair and won the blue ribbon! These recipes are fantastic!

3.0 out of 5 starsGreat recipes but suffers from the "warm fuzzy" food blogging genre
By Holly A. Wagner on May 8, 2015
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
I like the basic approach to cake baking: here's a recipe for cake layers, here are recipes for fillings and frostings, and here are some combinations. It encourages bakers to see things as a series of blocks or colors in a palette. I really like the Velvet Underground cake in particular. It's one of my favorite bands and now one of my favorite cakes. What I don't like is the current genre of food writing and blogging that I see here. I have my own stories,traditions, memories involving great food and great meals with people I love. I bake and cook to make more. If I want to hear someone else's personal stories, I'll ask a friend. When I read a cookbook, I'm looking for recipes, not a buddy.

5.0 out of 5 starsawesome recipes
By Brenda Pink on January 19, 2014
Format: Paperback
This is quickly becoming a "go to" book for recipes. The first recipe I tried was the ginger shortbread. Cookies were a HUGE hit at Christmas. Probably one of the best cookies I've had/made. I've tried a couple of other recipes and both were really good. No pictures, which is too bad, but the recipes work, so easy to give them a go. The banana cake recipe was ever so slightly fiddly, but was well worth the extra effort. You cannot go wrong with this book and it is money well spent in this day and age of online recipes (that usually don't work so well).

5.0 out of 5 starsI use this book all the time.
By EbookObsessed on March 9, 2016
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
I love this baking book. I bought it years ago as a gag gift for someone on a low-fat diet simply because of the title. As I reviewed the recipes, there were so many really wonderful sounding items that I had to get myself a copy. I have made many of the recipes but Soho Globs are still my favorites. Having a digital copy allows me to pull up a recipe if I am not at home to either show others or make a list for the grocery store.

3.0 out of 5 starsMy tastes and baking style have changed
By Amazon_Customer TOP 500 REVIEWER on December 5, 2013
Format: Kindle Edition
I owned a copy of The Rosie's Bakery All-Butter, Cream-Filled, Sugar-Packed Baking Book by author Judy Rosenberg long ago. I gave that copy away. I purchased an Kindle copy of this same book and remembered why I gave the print book away.

Her recipes look tasty and delish. Some of her recipes are a bit more work than I am willing to commit to. I am slowing down when it comes to baking and cooking after spending over 40 years doing both. I am looking for easier recipes that taste good.

Rosenerg's book does not appeal to my streamlined cooking approach. It's not a bad book, it's not the book for me as I've changed the way I cook. At one time I did make homemade puff pastry and rich multi-layered cakes. Today, I am happy with simpler desserts.

If you wish to bake in fine style, and want to devote the time to serious baking, I'd recommend her book.

As to the recipes you will find recipes such as:

Queen Raspberry Cake
Tosca Bars
Apple-Cranberry Torte
Orange Birthday Cake Bars
Booms Booms

You will find one sexually named recipe that I can not post in this review as the review would be censored. Be warned though there is a recipe name with sexual connotations.

There is a interactive table of contents and an interactive index to make navigation easy.

Recommend with caveats given.

Recipes may be good, but as a long time baker recipes are hard to follow. You may have to go to several different pages in the book to do a recipe. Sorry I purchased it.
