The Desserts That Built the Church Cookbook
There is something special about desserts that come out of a church cookbook. They are the kind of recipes passed hand to hand, written on worn index cards, and baked for every potluck, funeral lunch, and Sunday social.
These are the cakes, bars, and pies that always showed up on long folding tables covered in plastic cloths. Simple ingredients. Big pans. No fuss. Just the kind of sweets people line up for twice.
