September Thrifty Finds Week#2 ~ Betty Crocker Baking for Today and The Toll House Heritage Cookbook

Betty Crocker - Baking for Today, published in 2005.  Published to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Gold Medal flour, the book is filled with lots of yummy recipes for cookies, cakes, pies and other desserts. There are also recipes for bread, entrees and one chapter devoted to baking with kids.

The opening chapter gives lots of great tips on basic baking. The previous owner loved the recipe for Baking Powder Biscuits since it  appears to be the most "used" page in the book.

Toll House Heritage Cookbook, published in 1980. Lots of delicious chocolate recipes including the famous Toll House Cookie - which I make using the pan method. There is also a recipe I may utilize in the future - Toll House Refrigerator cookies - similar to the product sold in grocery stores.

The book was published to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Toll House cookie, and other recipes include candies, cakes, cookies, breads, desserts and sauces.
