The Pillsbury Bake-Off Cookbook uniquely combines the best cooking ideas from home kitchens across the country with the expertise of the Pillsbury Test Kitchens to offer recipes that are easy to make and delicious to eat.


Combining the best of trends and ideas from real people's kitchens with the expertise of the Pillsbury know-how, The Pillsbury Bake-Off^ Cookbook brings you the pick of prizewinning recipes from America's premier cooking contest.
From hearty family meals to the demand for convenience and ease of preparation and a growing interest in health and nutrition, The Pillsbury Bake-Off Contest has both reflected and set trends in family-style cooking for over forty years.
Ranging from appetizers to desserts, this new collection allows you to try the treasured winning recipes of home cooks from around the country. Some of these Bake-Off® winning recipes have become classics in their own right and so familiar that their origins in the contest are often forgotten—Dilly Casserole Bread, for instance, or Tunnel of Fudge Cake which is not only a long-standing favorite but helped popularize the Bundt^pan and inspired a Pillsbury cake mix. Others, perhaps classics of the future, reflect current food interests—Oriental Cornish Chicks, Mexican Vegetable Soup, Chewy Microwave Granóla Bars and still others attest to our enduring love of chocolate and sweets such as the Grand Prize Winner in 1988, Chocolate Praline Layer Cake.
All of the recipes have been newly tested for this book and updated for the way you cook today—
• From-scratch steps have been replaced with timesaving convenience products.
• Ingredients no longer made have been replaced with readily available products.
• Flour sifting has been eliminated.
• The amounts of fat and salt have been reduced.
• Microwave directions have been added where it is a proven timesaver.

In addition to wonderful recipes, you'll find a fascinating behind'the'scenes look at this granddaddy of baking contests. The unique charm of the contest and the trea-sured place it holds in the imagination of family cooks across the nation come from the finalists themselves—
• The farm housewife who, distrustful of city ways, brought eggs from her own chicken house to prepare her recipe.
• The youngest Grand Prize winner who originally created the recipe as a homework assignment for her home economics class.
• The lady who placed her pie on a chair to cool, and accidentally sat on it.
The Pillsbury Bake-Off^ Cookbook presents the best and most popular of the Bake-Off* Contest recipes for you to enjoy and share with family and friends. Some may bring back childhood memories of favorite foods. Many others will inspire you to try something new and different. All are guaranteed to stand the test of time and become part of your family's collection of favorites. Vissza
