Acknowledging that holiday desserts require time and effort to prepare, the book offers foolproof recipes that profitably exploit both. Besides holiday-oriented sweets, such as meatless mincemeat pie and amaretti trifle, the book offers others, like crème brûlée and chocolate soufflé, that can be enjoyed year-round. Throughout, underlying techniques are explored and illustrated (the drawings that depict Yule Log preparation are particularly useful), and sensible tips abound (for example, use Granny Smiths and McIntoshes for apple pie to achieve maximum flavor and best texture).
A true primer, the book is part of the Cook's Illustrated Library series. Like the magazine, the books are dedicated to presenting tried-and-perfected recipes and cooking techniques in a concise, approachable way. --Arthur Boehm
