bailedI picked this up because of an essay by Christina Tosi in a collection of food writing. I enjoyed Tosi‘s salty writing style in this cookbook too, but few of the recipes even tempt me. Cereal Milk, for example, is apparently popular at her bakery—but I‘ve never liked the taste of milk that‘s had cereal in it. (I‘ve never liked cold cereal either.) I don‘t mind recipes like these that require sub-recipe ingredients, if the end result seems worthy.
I am in love with the idea of the flavour I think milk should have—and these milk crumbs were the first perfect embodiment of that idealized milk flavour. They have a richness, butteriness and sweetness (from enrobing with white chocolate) that makes any hater want to love the flavour of milk. … Our milk crumbs go in cookies, cakes and pie crusts, and that‘s just the beginning.
The Chocolate-Chocolate Cookies from this book are huge. Directions say to use 1/3 cup batter for each cookie, chill for at least an hour, then allow 4 inches between each cookie on the baking sheet. Which I did. I‘m cutting the next ones into 4 pieces before baking.
pickFilled with lots of fun and quirky recipes that fill you with childhood nostalgia and satisfies your sweet tooth. These desserts are something that the kids will devour but are sophisticated enough to serve to company. This is definitely a must have for me!
#rocktober #comfortablynumb Ok... so my mind went in this direction! Numb = drugs = crack!
After tasting Crack pie for the first time this weekend, I immediately added this cookbook from the fabulous NYC bakery to my Xmas wish list.... I must have that recipe! And cereal milk ice cream sounds amazing too! 😋
Thanks for another fun month of challenges ladies! 👍💕
I borrowed this to bake Tosi's epic Birthday Cake. Sooooo many sprinkles ❤️❤️❤️

Momofuku Milk Bar Compost Cookies. There used to be a lot more on the plate. Oddly enough, the recipe does not call for
compost. 🤔 But yummy!!!! 😋😋😋
First you #crush things - cornflakes, ritz crackers, cinnamon toast, graham crackers (what is a graham cracker??). Then mix with milk powder, sugar & butter, and bake. Then use your crunchy crushed stuff as the basis for incredibly complicated-but-delicious-looking sweet recipes.
I think I need a trip to New York to fully appreciate what they're doing in this book! (Or maybe someone to cook them for me?) Much crushing tho!

pickTwo of my favorite Cook books. I've read them cover to cover and have learned so much. Amazing, show stopping recipes.
pickI had to post another one for #cookbooklove. I LOVE pie. It makes me happy. Instead of birthday cake, I get birthday pie. And believe me, Christina Tosi has created a pie that is called crack pie for a reason. The recipes in this book are time consuming & sometimes complicated (so as the mother of 2 toddlers, it's been 6 yrs since I've had it). But this one recipe makes the whole book worth it.
