There are two camps in baking: project bakers and on-the-fly bakers. Some people really enjoy making croissants, but more often than not you just need something delicious and quick to bring to the gathering. Jessie Sheehan gets that, which is why she created an entire book of low-effort, high-reward bakes that look like you spent all day on them, but that actually come together in about an hour or so. In Snackable Bakes (Countryman Press) there is no resting, chilling, proofing or bain-marie-ing; just whisking or mixing, setting and forgetting. And though dedicated project bakers might not feel blown away by the selection of simple but tasty quick breads, muffins, cupcakes and scones, there's no denying that sometimes there just aren't enough hours in the day -- and that's when this cookbook will be your best friend.--Nikita Richardson "New York Times"
