Bake Club by Christina Tosi

Another social media cookbook crossover, many of the recipes debuted online. Now gathered in a useful collection that focuses on minimal ingredients and basic techniques. The tone is all about having fun and improvising. Recipes are truly accessible, and Bloom knows how to cheerlead cooking. A great gift for new and old cooks.
