"A simple, stylish cookbook full of desserts that come together faster than you can eat them-from the New York Times bestselling author of Dining In and Nothing Fancy. Casual, effortless, chic: These are not words you'd use to describe most desserts. But before Alison Roman made recipes so perfect that they go by one name-The Cookie, The Pasta, The Lemon Cake-she was a restaurant pastry chef who spent most of her time learning to make things the hard way. She studied flavor, technique, precision...and distilled her knowledge to pare all that down into treats that get you the most deliciousness with the least amount of fuss. So the desserts you want to make right away-whether you're craving cookies, cakes, or other sweet stuff-you can make right away. Simple but sublime, Alison shows you how make sweets with her trademark casualness, like how to turn jam into a dessert (swirled into ice cream, folded into easy cake batter, spread onto a rough pastry dough). Make simple cakes that dirty only one bowl. Keep one crust recipe in your back pocket and turn it into any pie you want. Recipes like Salted Lemon Pie, Hot Buttered Rum Cake, and Toasted Rice Pudding make your sweetest dream come true in an instant. In Sweet Enough, Alison has written the book for people who think they don't have the time or skill to pull off dessert"--

Casual, effortless, chic: These are not words you'd use to describe most desserts. But before Alison Roman made recipes so perfect that they go by one name--The Cookie, The Pasta, The Lemon Cake--she was a restaurant pastry chef who spent most of her time learning to make things the hard way. She studied flavor, technique, and precision, then distilled her knowledge to pare it all down to create dessert recipes that feel special and approachable, impressive and doable. InSweet Enough, Alison has written the book for people who think they don't have the time or skill to pull off dessert. Here, the desserts you want to make right away, you can make right away.

Alison shows you how to make simple yet sublime sweets with her trademark casualness, like how to make jam in the oven, then turn that jam into a dessert--swirled into ice cream or folded into easy one-bowl cake batter. (Opening a jar of jam is more than fine, too.) She waxes poetic on the virtues of frozen fruit and teaches you the best way to throw your own Sundae Party. There are effortless cakes that take just minutes to get into a pan. And there are new, instant classics with a signature Alison twist, like Salted Lemon Pie, Raspberries and Sour Cream, Toasted Rice Pudding, or a Caramelized Maple Tart. Requiring little more than your own two hands and a few mixing bowls, the recipes are geared towards those without fancy equipment or specialty ingredients.

Whether you're a dedicated baker or, better yet, someone who doesn't think they are a baker,Sweet Enoughlets you finish any dinner, any party, or any car ride to a dinner party with a little something wonderful and sweet.
