Chocolate chip-filled recipes that “run the gamut from a variety of cookies and candies to muffins, pies, tarts, puddings, cakes and ice cream desserts” (San Bernardino Sun).

One of the greatest pleasures of life is biting into a warm chocolate chip cookie straight from the oven. Now imagine it’s Chocolate Chip Bread Pudding or Chocolate Chip Angel Cake with Chocolate Marshmallow Frosting. The Essential Chocolate Chip Cookbook offers forty-five recipes that cover all the dessert bases—cookies, cakes, candies, brownies, tarts, frozen treats, and more. Chocolate chips saturate these recipes inside and out, so there’s also a guide to the differences between these tiny indulgences. Using milk, semisweet, bittersweet, and white chocolate, Klivans encourages readers to discover their favorite chocolate chip recipes by, of course, tasting them all!

“If you keep chocolate chips stashed in your fridge or cupboard and want to whip up something beyond the usual chocolate chip cookies, you’ll find 45 creative ideas in The Essential Chocolate Chip Cookbook.” —Tampa Bay Times
