The Wooden Spoon Dessert Book is a bonanza for lovers of dessert-a wide range of favored perennials and rediscovered classics. Here is a wonderful, homey, and delicious array of recipes for the last, and best, course of any meal: custards, sugar pies, cobblers, layer cakes, frostings, pie doughs, and icebox cakes, all made simple as can be by Marilyn M. Moore's straightforward directions and attention to detail. A masterful job at introducing the novice to techniques and what-ifs. - The Washington Post
