My Review 5 STARS

If you’ve never bought one of Brunstetter’s Amish cookbooks, you are missing out on some delicious recipes!! Grab a good sturdy wooden spoon and get ready to make some of the tastiest baked goods you can imagine.

One of my favorite recipes is Baked Oatmeal. It can be as simple as the printed recipe in the book or you can jazz it up with fresh fruit. Our favorite way to enjoy it is with fresh Blueberries either placed into the bottom of the pan before pouring the oatmeal mixture over top, or tossing a few plump ones on top of the finished product! MmmMmm!!!

I plan on trying my hand at several more recipes, especially the White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake since that is my all-time favorite flavor of Cheesecake! It actually looks fairly easy to make. I was surprised that the baker recommends using a handheld mixer to beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth but hey, I’m all for electricity! LOL

I received a copy of this beautifully presented cookbook from the publisher with no expectation of a review.
