You don’t need a pantry full of specialty ingredients and equipment to
become a great baker. You’ll quickly learn in Dessert Course that
mastering a few foundational skills and understanding the whys and hows
of baking science is all you need.
Benjamin Delwiche, AKA Benjamin the Baker, is a math teacher by day and

is inspired by his approach to teaching―he’s committed to breaking down
the mystery of baking success so his audience, like his students, can
become stronger and more knowledgeable.
First, you’ll learn how to break down a recipe, the essential mixing
methods, and even how to re-formulate any recipe to make it work to
your advantage. Let’s say you want to make chocolate chip cookies but
you only have a few tablespoons of flour left―using Ben’s Baker’s
Percentages technique, you’ll be able to figure out how many cookies
you can make. The second half of the book showcases over 30 core
recipes with variations―each one includes a flow chart so you can bake
your own adventure. You’ll be able to visually understand what makes a
chewy chocolate chip cookie vs a crispy one and what it will take to
get to your desired destination.

Though Maida Heatter's life's work was teaching millions of
Americans to bake, through it all, she had one undying passion:
chocolate. A famous chocolate addict, she once declared: 'I am the
Chairperson of the Board of the Chocolate Lovers Association of the
World. (I worked my way up from a Brownie).'Her love for chocolate
in all its forms produced hundreds of recipes for chocolate cakes,

Best Hot Fudge Sauce. The very best of those, the most
fan-favorited, requested, irresistibly chocolatey delights, are
reproduced in this definitive collection of the greatest chocolate
desserts from the woman the New York Times dubbed a baking
'genius.'Each recipe will be accompanied by a gorgeous, full-color
illustration and a heaping spoonful of Maida's no-nonsense, deeply
lovable, surprisingly witty instruction--along with her promise
that if you follow each recipe to the T, it will simply work.With
recipes ranging from the simplest tea cake or cookie to the most
elaborate confections (like Maida's September 7th Cake, her
perennial birthday cake), this is a must-have book for chocolate
lovers and for any baker who lives to please a crowd.
