Weeknight Baking: Recipes to Fit Your Schedule by Michelle Lopez

Michelle Lopez-the wildly popular and critically acclaimed blogger behind Hummingbird High-teaches busy people how to make cookies, pies, cakes, and other treats, without spending hours in the kitchen.

If anyone knows how to balance a baking obsession with a demanding schedule, it's Michelle Lopez. Over the past several years that she's been running her blog Hummingbird High, Lopez has kept a crucial aspect of her life hidden from her readers: she has a full-time, extremely demanding job in the tech world. But she's figured out how to have her cake and eat it too.

In Weeknight Baking, Lopez shares recipes for drool-worthy confections, along with charming stories and time-saving tips and tricks. From everyday favorites like Almost No Mess Shortbread and Better-Than-Supernatural Fudge Brownies to showstoppers like a Modern Red Velvet Cake and Peanut Butter Pretzel Pie (it's vegan!), she reveals the secrets to baking on a schedule.

With rigorously tested recipes, productivity hacks, and gorgeous photographs, this book is destined to become a busy baker's go-to. Finally, dessert can be a part of every everyday meal!

She has done all the legwork to make truly accessible recipes that taste (and look!) like you slaved over them all day.-ERIN MCDOWELL, author of The Fearless Baker and frequent contributor to The New York Times Food Section and Food52
