Publisher review:
The highly anticipated complement to The New York Times bestselling Momofuku cookbook, Momofuku Milk bar reveals the recipes for the innovative, addictive cookies, pies, cakes, ice creams, and more from the wildly popular bakery, including the Compost cookie, a chunky chocolate-chip cookie studded with crunchy salty pretzels and coffee grounds; the Crack pie, a sugary-buttery confection as craveable as the name implies; and Cereal milk ice cream, made from everyone’s favorite part of a nutritious breakfast – the milk at the bottom of a bowl of cereal.
In Momofuku Milk bar, Christina Tosi finally shares her recipes for these now-legendary riffs on childhood flavors and down-home classics – all derived from ten mother recipes – along with the compelling narrative of the unlikely beginnings of her bakery’s success.
With 100 color photographs, Momofuku Milk bar makes baking irresistible off-beat treats at home both foolproof and fun.
