From the Inside Flap:
Passover Desserts When you think of Passover dessert you think of flavorless macaroons from an airtight canister or Grandma's dry spongecake camouflaged by strawberries, right? Well, not anymore. Passover Desserts contains 50 delicious recipes—everything from cookies to cobblers—that taste and look so good, you're sure to impress your holiday guests. Author Penny Eisenberg starts off by explaining dietary guidelines—which foods require a "Kosher for Passover" label—taken from the Rabbinical Assembly Pesach Guide. She covers how to prepare your cooking equipment so it's kashered for Passover, acquaints you with the basic Passover dessert ingredients and their preparation techniques, and ends with a guide to equipment and ingredient suppliers. Penny says, "On all other nights we eat dessert that is tasty. Why on this night do we eat desserts that look and taste like cardboard?" With recipes for frostings, fillings, glazes, and sauces—and instructions on decorating basics—Passover desserts become rich, flavorful, and attractive. The recipes—using Passover-approved ingredients like potato flour, matzo meal, and Passover chocolate—are arranged with pareve (no dairy or meat) recipes first, then dairy. Those with little or no cholesterol are marked with a heart. With choices like Caramel Cheesecake Squares with "Graham Cracker" Crust, Chocolate Cherry Mini-Tarts, and Peach Raspberry Tiramisu, Passover Desserts will not only be your source for a sweet Passover but also for kosher desserts throughout the year.
