Need a dusting of powdered sugar on bar cookies, but don’t have a small strainer? Spoon some powdered sugar into a tea infuser and give it a shake. It works like a charm!

Review: I was not impressed with this book at all.I was very disappointed. I tried several recipes and none turned out as described. The measurements were not accurate. I have baked for over 25 years so I am a very experienced baker. I have followed several other books and never had such a issue as this one. I would not recommend. Sorry to the authors but this was not rated very well for my opinion and give it a 2 out of a 5.
