A recipe in Bon Appetit magazine for Dorie's Best Chocolate Chip Cookies. They are amazing and every time I take them to something people rave about them and always ask for the recipe. I would love to win this book but guess I'm not alone! ;-)

boardingaceOctober 28, 2014

I hope this counts as an entry, because I haven't made any of her recipes, but I have heard of her cookbooks of course, so I was very excited to see this contest open up!!! And I had to google the world peace cookies - they sound delicious :)

limorOctober 28, 2014

my favorite recipe from dorie is the Tiramisu Cake from the book "from My Home to Yours by Dorie Greenspan" i made this cake for my sister wedding after everyone told me if i am sure i will be response to make the wedding cake, i was positive that this book will make the best cake ever, and i was write, every one was shocked that i made this cake and even ask for the recipe...

Thumb print cookies.

veronicafranceOctober 29, 2014

I've heard so much about Dori, but I've never yet made one of her recipes. I really enjoyed reading her interview -- I live in France, and so much of what she says is spot-on with my experience.

hillsboroksOctober 28, 2014

I love her lemon cream tart recipe.

lovelily1001October 28, 2014

on the cover of "baking: from my home to yours" is a gorgeous chocolate cake "devil's food white-out". made that for my son's 18th birthday, and it came out just like the cover picture! amazing! and delcious too!

sgumpOctober 28, 2014

Blueberry crumb cake (from *Baking: From My Home to Yours,* pp. 192-93): simple and lovely.

angelanorrOctober 29, 2014

this is the first I've heard of Dorie.

genericgenreOctober 28, 2014

I have seen many of Dorie's recipes but haven't made or tasted any of them. Looking at the recipes in this book, Saint Pierre Poppy Seed Cake sounds great!

DKennedyOctober 28, 2014

Her apple cake in Around My French Table has become a staple in our home.

TaxladyOctober 29, 2014

I have heard about Dorie, but have not had a chance to make any of her recipes. I think any if the recipes in this book would be a great start.

LyndahermanOctober 29, 2014

The french Apple cake!

lavenderashgroveOctober 29, 2014

Custardy Apple Squares - yum!

jupfluteOctober 29, 2014

I've made so many of her recipes with great success that it's hard to pick just one. Either her lemon cream tart which I've made multiple times to rave reviews (I could eat that filling by the spoonful) or her mango bread which is probably the first recipe of hers I made.

robinorigOctober 29, 2014

I love her world peace cookies but also the sablés, cornmeal shortbreads, etc. I've been to one of her pop-up cookie stores and everything was delicious! I would love to try the lemon cream tart as it sounds incredible!

matagOctober 29, 2014

Nutella Buttons

cecroftsOctober 29, 2014

I love her Roast Chicken For Les Paresseux (Lazy People) so much - the bread that cooks underneath the chicken is probably my favorite thing to eat ever!

JumpinJudeOctober 29, 2014

I haven't met a recipe of hers I haven't liked (whether I made it or someone else did), but one of our faves is one of the simplest: Key Lime Pie Sorbet.

enassarOctober 29, 2014

Wow, where do I start. Her "Baking from My Home to Yours by Dorie Greenspan" is by far my most used baking/pastry book. The recipe I bake the most out of it...well make that two recipes are the simple Bittersweet Brownies with espresso and the Great Grain Muffins

lmalterOctober 29, 2014

I love her mushroom quiche (and crust)

kimtrevOctober 29, 2014

my favorite has to be the Cocoa-Nana bread.

NYTBatCatOctober 29, 2014

she is always a reliable baker and I'm psyched to see this. Yes, nutella buttons are stupendous.

cespitlerOctober 29, 2014

I haven't made a thing! I need a cookbook to get me started.

rstuartOctober 29, 2014

I honestly don't know where to start.. there are so many! I love the World Peace Cookies... but I think that the Dimply Plum cake might also be a favourite. It's simple and homey but delicious..

SLaneOctober 29, 2014

A fig cake for fall from Baking: From My Home to Yours

JuliaOctober 29, 2014

Doris's recipes are consistent, reliable and delicious. I would love to see this new collection.

krobbins426October 29, 2014

I heard her on NPR and started making my own marshmallows based on her recipe, especially pumpkin ones for Thanksgiving, after hearing that story.

cadfaelOctober 30, 2014

I also love her Roast Chicken For Les Paresseux (Lazy People) so much - the bread that cooks underneath the chicken is everyone's favourite-supposed to be the cooks treat but k
Now I have to divide evenly,

AmbrosiaOctober 29, 2014

Custardy Apple Squares from this new cookbook! I do not (yet) own this beautiful book. But this recioe was published in our Boston Globe newspaper! It is terrific.

jlh39November 2, 2014

I followed the "Tuesdays with Dorie" blog but have just now received her "Baking from My Home to Yours" so haven't yet made a recipe. Would start with something lemon-y.

I love the chocolate pound cake from her Paris Sweets book!

nphillipsNovember 2, 2014

It's a toss up between the Lenox Almond Biscotti and My Best Chocolate Chip Cookies from "Baking from My Home to Yours." They've both become my standards and I don't bother making anyone else's.

GeekGirlNovember 2, 2014

Scallops with caramel-orange sauce. Also Curried Mussels and Salmon and Basil Tapenade

Well, since you ruled out World Peace Cookies, I guess I'll go with My Favorite Pecan Pie from Baking: From My Home to Yours.

sbh2006November 3, 2014

I love her Madeleines and everything from "Paris Sweets!"

KristinBeeNovember 3, 2014

I love Roast Chicken for les paresseux, but it's hard to choose just one recipe!

davises88November 3, 2014

The basic banana cake in a bundt pan is nearly perfect.

chawkinsNovember 2, 2014

I love both the blueberry-mascarpone roulade and Marie-Helene's apple cake equally.

beetlebugOctober 31, 2014

The giant butter cookie from around my French table.

dvajefinkNovember 3, 2014

I just made the chicken with apples normande from Around My French Table. It's was very good but the family favorite is her Shepard's Pie . The World Peace cookies are a big big favorite ...just saying :)

katcookNovember 25, 2014

Though I continue to make Twenty-hour apples as Dorie wrote it in Desserts by Pierre Herme, I do appreciate her shorter version called long and slow from Around my French Table. That filling can be used in a variety of ways.

carolienbellNovember 4, 2014

Dorrie's chocolate chocolate chip cookies

I LOVE the stuffed pumpkin recipe from Around my French Table. It is such an incredible party food and finally a worthy use of a big ol' pumpkin.

tiramisu cake

RuthGoNovember 24, 2014

Another vote for the apple cake!

JoanNNovember 24, 2014

Too, too many favorites, but Double Apple Bundt is right up there near the top of the list.

centraljerseyNovember 25, 2014

Guilty: I have printed out many of her recipes and right now they are buried in a pile of printed-out recipes. Which means I need to quit printing out recipes and get the cookbook!

tjosNovember 24, 2014

I have not made any of her recipes (do not have any of her books) but I was looking at this book in a bookstore the other day and now I want it BAD!

highburysweetsNovember 25, 2014

It's very difficult to choose just one recipe... yet I'll select deconstructed BLT and eggs from Around My French Table for a simple supper.

DKennedyNovember 9, 2014

My favorite DG recipe is probably her simplest: the avocado with pistachio oil, salt and lemon. Perfection.

JulimorrNovember 25, 2014

Love apple cake

smallanNovember 24, 2014

The best cookies ever - croquant - if your favorite flavor is "crunch"!
