Perfect Pies & More: All New Pies, Cookies, Bars, and Cakes from America's Pie-Baking Champion: A Cookbook

After the success of Perfect Pies, National Pie Baking Champion (27 times!) Michele Stuart went back into the kitchenâ€”the same kitchen in Vermont where she first dreamed up the award-winning creations that inspired her to open the popular Micheleâ€™s Pies shops. Returning there also meant returning to the cherished pies she learned to bake under her grandmotherâ€™s and motherâ€™s watchful eyes, as well as the wonderful cakes, cookies, and other sweet treats that became their family tradition.
Â
In her newest cookbook, Perfect Pies & More, Stuart delves deeper into her roots while creating delicious new memories made with love and care. Inside, youâ€™ll find tantalizing recipesâ€”some easy-to-bake, some requiring a bit more finesseâ€”for dozens of her favorite fruit, nut, and cream pies, and so much more.
