No kitchen cabinet is complete without a box of Bisquick. For nearly 70 years, the familiar yellow box has been a staple for biscuits, shortcakes, and quick dinners. Updated for the millennium, Betty Crocker's Bisquick Cookbook is filled with old favorites, such as Cinnamon Streusel Coffeecake and Oven-Fried Chicken, plus new recipes for the likes of Rhubarb Meringue Torte and Thai Chicken with Spicy Peanut Sauce. The cookbook is divided into seven sections, including such standards as "Best-Ever Breakfasts," "Savory Snacks and Breads," "Family-Pleasing Dinners," and "Delicious Desserts." There's a whole chapter on Bisquick's famous Impossibly Easy pies, featuring savory items such as Taco Pie, Salmon-Asparagus Pie, and--a favorite with the kids--Mac 'n' Cheese Pie, in addition to Coconut Pie (the very first Impossible Pie), French Apple Pie, and Mocha Fudge Cheesecake. Calorie watchers should check out the "Favorites Made Lighter" recipes, which use Reduced-Fat Bisquick. There are recipes for Hearty Chicken and Potato Dinner, Southwest Tamale Tart, and Chocolate-Cinnamon Sundae Cake, all with half the fat of the original Bisquick dishes. If you have little helpers at your elbow, Betty Crocker's Bisquick Cookbook is a great introduction to cooking. Flip to "In the Kitchen with Kids" and make Jack-o'-Lantern Pizzas for dinner followed by Banana S'mores. There's even a Bisquick-based play dough and squiggle paint recipe (just for playing; no eating, please). Every recipe has an accompanying picture and a Betty's Tip to help you out. Whether you want to whip up a batch of biscuits or make individual Italian Sausage Pot Pies, dinner is only minutes away. --Dana Van Nest

Great book December 17, 2007
This is exactly what I was looking for. I gave this as a gift and it was perfect for a beginning cook. She loved it.
Best cookbook, EVER. June 23, 2007
My husband loves to cook.... me, not so much. That being said, this cookbook for me is the most used, most helpful, and most excellent. Delicious, quick, and mainly (mostly) EASY. Definately worth every dollar. Plus, plenty of kid friendly recipies!!!
Love it!! January 31, 2007

This is a great book! I wish I could give it six stars! I am such a fan of Bisquick now. Dinners come together in no time, and many can be halfed without a problem if you need to cook just for two. I love the cinnamon rolls!! Everything I have made has been great. Just tonight I made the Impossibly Easy Mac and Cheese Pie and it was great! And the more I use this book the more I love it. My in-laws are Japanese and don`t like sweet American desserts so I made the cinnamon strussle coffee cake as a birthday cake and it was a big success. I even saw them go for seconds which rarely ever happenes. Pictures with every recipie make it so easy to deside what to make (that is if you can choose between so many great recipies). I love the many "Betty tips" through out the book, like why things may have turned out wrong. I wish I had known some of the tips for my Christmas baking, such as why my muffins turned out hard: over mixed, some times lumps are ok. Now I can cook in confidence. I also like the fact that many of the recipies can be changed to suit my family`s taste, such as adding more cheese, mushrooms instead of onions, ect. Some of the "Betty tips" even suggest changes such as apples to peaches in desserts. You just can`t go wrong with this book. It really is great. I am now looking at buying Bisquick II. Happy cooking!!

There are more uses for Bisquick than you can imagine - this book is great and the recipes are easy.
Excellent cookbook received in promised time February 24, 2006
The book is a great starter book for those who don't think they can "cook from scratch" but will start with the Bisquick mix. The recipes are easy to prepare and down to earth. The color photographs are mouth watering.
