Quick-Shop-&-Prep 5 Ingredient Baking: Cookies, Cakes, Bars & More that are Easier than Ever to Make by Jennifer McHenry

Jennifer’s cookbook is a great creative use of pantry ingredients. There are so many dessert variations she has for you with a basic few and then even more when you add one, two, three, four or five more ingredients to that list. I still think about the peanut butter snack cake I made a couple of months ago.
