Bake Like You Mean it! Williams-Sonoma and American Girl have partnered to bring you American Girl Baking. It's packed with 40+ delicious, easy-to-follow recipes fit for any occasion, or just because you wanted to bake something!

It’s easy to understand why baking is so much fun. There’s nothing quite as satisfying as measuring and mixing ingredients, putting dough or batter into a hot oven, watching - and smelling!- the transformation during baking, and finally removing delicious sweets from the oven. But the best part is sharing the treats you made with love with your friends and family. American Girl Baking provides delicious, easy to follow recipes that everyone will love.

Cookies: From cookie flower pops and cinnamon-sugar snickerdoodles to pinwheel icebox cookies to ice cream sandwiches - find something for every craving.

Cupcakes: With kid-favorites flavors like PB & J, s’mores and snowball, and more adult flavors like carrot cake, red velvet, and white chocolate and raspberry, there’s something for every family member.

Madeleines: Honey or orange, chocolate or vanilla, no matter what flavor they are- madeleines are a delicious and dainty treat!

Baking: A wide range of sweets as diverse as chocolate truffles, rocky road fudge, fruity turnovers, caramel-glazed blondies, and everything in between.

Whether you follow each recipe step-by-step or add your own unique twist, baking is a great opportunity to let your personality shine and to create mouthwatering goodies.

The American Girl Baking book goes with the exclusive line of bakeware products from Williams-Sonoma and American Girl, but these delicious recipes can be made with the utensils you already have in your home.

Chocolate-Peanut Butter Brownies

¾ cup (1½ sticks) unsalted butter
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped into small pieces
4 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips

Makes 16 brownies

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, extending it up and over the sides on 2 sides.

Select a saucepan and a heatproof bowl that fits snugly on top of the pan. Fill the pan one-third full of water, making sure the water doesn’t touch the bottom of the bowl. Ask an adult to help you place the saucepan over medium heat. When the water is steaming, place the bowl on top of the saucepan and add the butter and chocolate to the bowl. Heat, stirring with a rubber spatula, until the mixture is melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Don’t let the chocolate get too hot! Ask an adult to help you remove the bowl from the saucepan (the bowl will be hot!) and set aside to cool slightly.

In a bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the eggs on medium speed until pale, about 4 minutes. Add the sugar and vanilla and beat until well combined. Turn off the mixer. Add the chocolate and beat until blended. Turn off the mixer and scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. Stir in the flour and salt with the rubber spatula just until blended.

Scrape the batter into the pan and smooth the top. Using a tablespoon measure, drop 6 dollops of peanut butter over the top, spacing them evenly. Sprinkle with the chocolate chips. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (ask an adult for help!), 25 to 30 minutes. Ask an adult to help you remove the pan from the oven and put it on a wire rack. Let cool completely, then cut into 16 squares and serve.

Delicious Desserts Follow Up

Six of my granddaughters have gotten very interested in baking with their mother and with me. This cookbook is a great starter book with easy to follow directions and delicious desserts. They have their own aprons, baking supplies and a baker’s hat. They are developing a lot of fond memories in the kitchen. Their brothers and sisters are eating everything before it all comes out of the oven. The only issue is that it is difficult to keep the cookbook open. It keeps closing.

Follow Up: One day of the week is designated as ‘Baking Day’. We form teams and rate the recipes chosen by the other team. This is a great way to spend summer days. Sticky notes are used to mark the recipes and are color-coded to indicate the food category usage. For example, there are different colors for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack and dessert. They also indicate how hard it is to use the recipe with a scale of 1 - 3 with one being the easiest. We do not use many numbers to rate each recipe. Also, we use large, metal binder clips to keep the book open.

I paired this with an apron and baking set (also found here on amazon) as a Christmas gift for my 9 year old daughter who loves to help in the kitchen. She always LOVED her Disney Princess cookbook when she was younger, and still pulls it out from time to time to make something, so this was my attempt at a step up from the kiddie princess cookbook .
The recipes in the book are not super complex and are simple but delicious things you would actually want to make and enjoy! The layout of the book is fun and girly! it's been a big hit with my daughter, so I will very likely gift this to her friends for birthdays etc.
