My Most Favorite Dessert Company is a dairy, upscale, kosher restaurant that has become a favorite in mid-Manhattan. Owner/chef Doris Schechter has now put her luscious pareve dessert recipes to paper, with a wonderful cookbook that will delight the casual and gourmet cook alike. She stresses that knock 'em dead desserts are achievable if you use superior ingredients. The book is thoughtfully designed, and the directions are easy to follow.

A large Passover section also makes this a perfect seasonal gift!
