Sugar Pie and Jelly Roll: Sweets from a Southern Kitchen

Author: Robbin Gourley

Raised on a farm in North Carolina, Robbin Gourley started baking as a child the day she got her first toy oven. She's been producing beautiful paintings for almost as long. Her newest cookbook is a perfect combination of all of Gourley's talents, bringing together over sixty of her classic Southern dessert recipes (ranging from Chocolate Chess Pie to Syllabub), and over seventy-five of her delicate watercolors. Taking us back through reminiscences of her youth, Gourley shares how sweets wound their way through her childhood and family: the Raspberry Summer Pudding that her mother made with their freshly picked berries, the Pumpkin Chiffon Pie her uncle couldn't resist, and the Sugar-Crust Pound Cake that became her father's favorite. Divided into sections, the cookbook features easy-to-follow recipes for Pies, Crisps, and Crumbles; Puddings and Custards; Candy, Cookies and Bars; Favorite Cakes;Chilled and Spirited Desserts; Embellishments and Sauces.

Just the thing to round out the meal, Sugar Pie and Jelly Roll makes creating desserts as much fun as helping them disappear.

Library Journal

This charming little book offers 60 recipes for favorite Southern treats, such as Opera Creams and Burnt-Sugar Cake, illustrated with the author's delightful watercolors. The text is forthright, informative, and often amusing: "The problem with chess pies is that despite the sublime pleasure they deliver, they are ugly as sin--so don't present them as le grande finale" (she's right, but it's reassuring to have someone say so), or, " sickly marshmallows sandwiched between undistinguished chocolate wafers--[do] not a moon pie make. This [one] is a dreamy mocha cream." A good companion to James Villas's excellent My Mother's Southern Desserts, this is recommended for most baking collections.
