Teens Cook Dessert

Being a 13-year-old girl, my mom got me this for Christmas as I have just found a new hobby in cooking. Immediately I made my dad go and get the ingredients for the chicken and dumplings (yes, even on Christmas Day). I made it for dinner and was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was and how good it tasted. The instructions were very step by step and simple. This book is very funny and informative, I've been obsessed with it for days! Probably the best teen cookbook out there!

I bought this for my 12 year old daughter who has taken an interest in baking. The book is nice and large with lots of not only step by step instructions, but also large pictures so she can understand the process of baking. There are some very kid friendly recipes included in the book, but also some adult-esque recipes as well. They range in difficulty level from beginner to somewhat advanced. I have to say though some of the recipes in here will definitely expand your waistline, but indulge your taste buds at the same time!

I got this for my daughters-friend as a birthday present. They are good recipes for young teens and not too difficult, so I suppose they can do it without parental supervision. As far as I’ve heard, she loved the present. Would recommend

I bought this book (along with Teens Cook) as a gift for my two teenage cousins. Before wrapping the books, though, I spent some time looking through them. If the books had been around when I was a teen, I would have loved to have had them. As it is, I still may buy them for myself!The book is filled with recipes that teens and young adults would actually want to eat, which is better than a lot of standard cookbooks. The pictures are great because they show every recipe.I also enjoyed the casual tone of the book, since it is also written by teens, it is not condescending towards them. I look forward to more cookbooks from these two young women.

Gave this book to my 11 year old... great to have fresh baked goodies these past few weeks!Wonderful book design, my daughter loves the funky "messy kitchen" images.In one recipe my daughter and her friend did not understand clearly that they should mix the flour AND baking soda together first. They added the flour and after mixing with the wet ingredients added the soda. Some advanced baking knowledge and experience is needed.

Recipes are simple and easy to read. Good gift for a young chef. I like the pictures that go with the recipes.

I absolutely love this book! I started baking when I was really little. When my mom would take me to the book store, I always poked around in the Cookbook aisle. The first cookbook that I got was their first book, "Teens Cook", and then later that year my parents got me this one because I loved all of the dessert recipes in the "Teens Cook" book.I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants fun dessert recipes that won't have you standing in the kitchen for hours. I recently started a baking blog [...]), and I have to give a lot of credit to this book because it taught me a lot of what I know about baking!

I love cookbooks. I often just like to look through the pictures and imagine creating great dishes from them. And, as far as pictures, this book is fantastic. The pictures are wonderful! As many teens may just be starting to cook, pictures are very important for a cookbook as they serve to inspire them. But, the recipes themselves just are not that good, nor are they very "different' or unusual. They are basic recipes that any kid could find online by going to Google and typing in a few words. And, on Google, you might even get reviews on the recipes or changes or additions to help you narrow your choice to a better recipe. Anyways, not to diss on this Cookbook, but other than the pictures, this is not a great cookbook as it is so basic. But, if you are wanting to inspire and start off a beginner cook with basic recipes, this may be a good starter cookbook.

grandson loves it he definately gonna cook more now

Supposed to be a basic cook book but its not most recipes are complex and very expensive with odd ball ingredients. Book is written by the mother and credit has been given to the teens. This is not what i expected. There are better ones with cheaper recipes. Better ideas on google.

Great book... my teenage granddaughter (who has no interest in cooking BTW) can't wait to bake!!!.. thank you

Daughter seems to like it
