 Rating:  - Who wants to buy my book?I really don't like this book. I bought this before I discover 'American Test Kitchen's cookbooks'. Save the money and buy anything by Cooks Illustrated instead. At least your meal will come out right and not so greasy... imagine 2 C. of butter for the base of your pasta!!! Rating:  - love this book!I love the first edition of this book, but I have to say that I love this edition more now that I have tried at least 15 of the recipes here. They truly are "Secret Recipes" from the well-known restaurants around! This is a must-have for every so-called cook! My family loves that we get to eat "restaurant food" without having to go out of the house! Rating: - Walk on byThis is my first Top Secret Recipes book and I had been wanting to get this book for some time. It arrived and I could not wait to open the book and start searching for the many "secret restaurant recipes" to try. To be honest, I was extremely disappointed. Most of the recipes anyone could have figured out on their own. The Peanut Butter Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats recipe is no secret. Anyone who does any cooking or baking can figure out that one needs to add peanut butter and chocolate to the box recipe to make these treats. I have been doing this particular flavor for years as I always liked chocolate and loved peanut butter. As far as amounts of these extra ingredients, you just taste test it as you go along. Everyone's tastes are different. You like chocolate in the Krispie Treats? Try cutting miniature chocolate candy bars like Milky Way or Butterfinger and add to the mixture and stir until melted, pour into pan or into shapes. I would still like to try one of Todd Wilber's other Secret Recipes cookbooks but for those of you who are anticipating on whether to purchase this particular cookbook, I would say, "Check the recipes before you buy but if you can not do this, PASS on this one. You can look at it this way, If you are able to find at least two recipes that you have been wanting to know the secret ingredients so that you can duplicate your favorite foods then BUY it. The price of the book is certainly worth it to provide you with your favorite food from your kitchen any time you want it. Rating: - Fun Book With Great DuplicatesThis is a superb way to duplicate some of your favorite snack items like Cinnabon CinnabonStix , KFC Honey BBQ Wings, and Cheese Nips. I've tried several recipes and all of them came out great. The Boston Market Meatloaf, one of my favorite take-out foods, was right on the money. I also recreated Cheese Nips and got them to taste just like the original, though the color was off slightly. The KFC wings were perfect and delicious (as is his cloned recipe of KFC original recipe chicken in an earlier boook). The recipe for Devil Dogs came out as dry as the actual Devil Dogs you can get in a store. So I made a few slight changes and produced a wonderfully moist version. They're also good with a chocolate glaze and/or a chocolate cream filling. That's one of the reasons why people want to have these recipes even though you can buy most of these products quite easily. We like to make slight changes or additions that make them more fun. I've made Twinkies with a ton of different fillings, extra-large thin mints, Cinnabon buns with chocolate chips, and a host of other personal variations of popular dishes. It's for cooks who like to have fun. I recommend this highly, along with all of his other books.
