Editorial Review:

Book DescriptionSandra Lee made a splash last year with her rst book, Semi-Homemade Cooking. Her approach is deceptively simple-mix 70 percent ready-made products with 30 percent fresh ingredients-and take 100 percent of the credit, for delicious homemade dishes, without spending hours in the kitchen. Semi-Homemade Desserts is lled with over 100 recipes, each with a full page, color photograph. And everything can be whipped up quickly and easily with the help of cake mixes, frozen fruits, candies, cookies, and even Cool Whip. You'll nd sweet temptations, such as Chocolate Bundt Cake with Ganache Frosting; Angel Food Cake with Key Lime Whip; and Caramel Nut Marshmallows. And Sandra's recipes are foolproof because she recommends her favorite brands to ensure perfect results every time. Sandra also provides inspiring ideas for holidays andcelebrations, from baby showers to anniversaries-and a special chapter with recipes from your favorite celebrities including Queen Latifah, Sharon Stone, Jamie Lee Curtis, Eric McCormack-and more.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - great looking stuff
There are a lot of great looking recipes in this book, I have never made any in the 4 years I have had the book, but the pictures look good.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful!
All of Sandra Lee's books are beautifully done! I love how she has a picture of every recipe in the book, makes you want to get into the kitchen and start cooking.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Easy and Fun
I added this one to my library on Food Network Star Sandra Lee's growing large stack of cookbooks I now have. I think it is fun and easy to use. I created over 6 new twists on baking which are useful & are now at the local deli. Easy, fun and delicious-all that I need.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Simple, easy, and tasty desserts that will WOW!
I am a big Sandra Lee fan. I now tape her show daily and try a lot of her recipes. I like her mainly because she caters to those of us that want great tasting food and desserts that don't take all day to make and don't have a lot of ingredients. This dessert book is really versatile, there are desserts for everyone. I have to say that the desserts that I like best are the ones that jazz up a plain old boxed cake mix, and the ones that use ice cream and frozen treats. I never imagined plain cake mix could taste so good! I have made some of these recipes for get-togethers and really WOWed people. They thought I bought the fancy cake, or ice-cream cake at a store! When I told them I made it at home they automatically assumed I slaved in the kitchen all day.

I love the pictures in the book because they give you creative ideas about what you can do-even if you don't use that specific decoration she uses.

I also like the fact that she gives so many ideas for using angel food cake. Angel food cake is easy to buy already made at the supermarket, and has no fat. For those of us trying to watch our figures (or entertaining others that are) it's a great treat. I have used these recipes in a pinch when I find out I have to make a dessert in a hurry and they've been a hit every time.
