The Best of Cooking with 3 Ingredients
reviewed on + 168 more book reviews


This book gave me my favorite cookie recipe of all time (using any number of ingredients!), which I still use to this day: Miracle Peanut Butter Cookies. 1 cup peanut butter, 1 cup sugar, 1 egg. That's it!! Combine all. Roll into balls. Flatten and crisscross with a fork dipped in sugar. Bake on greased cookie sheet at 375 for 8-10 minutes. Delish!! Simple!! No other crap! This recipe alone makes me glad I have this book!

That said, this book relies heavily on using pre-packaged foods, making it simple to only need 3 ingredients that way. As I mature I am trying to cook and bake more from scratch. However, this book is loaded with extremely simple and fast recipes, and I believe most cooks will be happy to have it in their cookbook library.

*** Three stars!
