awesome

This is a great book. Mine is falling apart, That is how much I use it.

Betty Crocker Baking for Today

This book arrived on time and was in excellent condition.

A Must-have

Being a "Betty-phile"--a Betty Crocker fan from 'way back--I may be prejudiced, but I think BETTY CROCKER BAKING FOR TODAY is a must-have for any kitchen where any amount of baking is done. It's not only highly usable, with numerous classic recipes, but a BEAUTIFUL publication. Incidentally, regarding "Mary's Chocolate Chip Cookies" (p. 92) by Mary Bartz, "former director of the [Betty Crocker] kitchens and cookie expert," I happen to have it directly from Mary that she bakes these cookies at 350 rather than the 375 indicated.

Baking At its Best

Betty Crocker cookbooks never fail to please and this one is a real winner! I have already tried two recipes from the book and found them both easy and tasty. One was Pepper Jack Bread and the other was Easy Roll Buttermilk Pie Dough. The former had a wonderful texture and flavor the latter was tender and flaky. There are may many other recipes I want to try from this book during my Sunday afternoon baking sessions. If you love to bake, and like classic recipes as well as new ones,then this book is for you!

Excellent as Always

I've been using Betty Crocker cookbooks since I got one as a shower gift before I got married 32 years ago, and I've never been disappointed with a single recipe. This cookbook is no exception. The recipes are clearly written, using ingredients that are readily available or already in a well-stocked kitchen. Great for beginners or experienced cooks alike.
