bookshelves: cookbooks, 1-star-ughhh, non-fiction, ebooks-owned-and-read
This was one of those free ebooks offered at Amazon. I sure thought it was going to be a book about writing hacks but turned out to be an actual cookbook...not one I'm inclined to invest in. It's all canned goods, which I'm not i to...but, hey...that would be pretty rapid recipes...lol
I hate it when an author doesn't "test" their recipes before putting them in print. The first and only recipe I tried was the "Quick Brownies" on page 211. It was quick and easy enough to throw together alright so I'd have time to write...lol...but it says to bake 325 degrees for 25 minutes. My brownies were still raw at that time. I had to leave it in for another 15 minutes for a total of 40 minutes baking time. Texture is more like a cake with a crunchy exterior, but descent flavor if you are craving chocolate.
