A birthday cake with swirls of buttercream icing, frosty ice cream on a hot summer’s day or warm, chocolatey cookies with a glass of ice-cold milk…it seems sweet treats are simply irresistible!

We've gathered some of our yummiest recipes in Sweet & Simple along with lots of fun tips to make them extra-special. Why not host an oh-so-easy pie party? Just set up a table outside in the shade, fill pitchers with fresh lemonade and ask friends to bring a favorite pie to share…try Glazed Apple-Cream Pie, Caramel-Banana Pie or Fresh Peach Pie, each is delicious!

Kids will love it when you set up an ice cream stand…scoops of Apple Dazzle, Frosty Peaches & Cream or Velvety Lime Squares will cool them down in a jiffy. And an old-fashioned cake walk will be a hit whatever the occasion when you show off Tutti-Fruitti Cake, Apple Blossom Cake or Toffee & Black Walnut Cake. Take a peek inside and whip up a special dessert tonight…it’s easy as pie! Hardcover, 224 pages. (9-1/4" x 6-1/2")
