Sarah Kieffer became a household name since her pan-banging technique went viral in the New York Times circa 2017, when her unbelievably thin, rippled, aberrant giant chocolate chip cookies took the world by storm. She made making the perfect cookie look so easy!
Fast forward to present day, and it’s not hard to see why I seized the opportunity to try out this tome of hers. To be honest, she had me with her cheerful front cover – who can resist images like that? And it was the same leafing through the book; simple recipes with gorgeous shots of the finished product, requiring only basic baking skills. “The Next Level” chapter is dedicated to recipes that are just that – extravagantly elevated recipes that require more skill and time if you want something more challenging.
