Just Roll with It; Recipes for Easy Embossed Cookies is a simple guide and playful companion for successfully using your engraved rolling pins. Stacy Krems, owner of the Colorado home-based business Sweet Rolling Pins, shares a wealth of recipes and essential tips for making the perfect rolling pin cookies from scratch. Stacy loves sharing her secrets for producing perfect embossed cookies and provides many surprising innovations to make cookies fun and exciting. In Just Roll with It, however, Stacy points out that more important than perfect cookies is simply the time we spend together in the kitchen with those we love. "I love baking," Stacy says, "because it reminds me of endless summer days spent in the kitchen with my grandmother. Her hair in curlers, Crisco in hand, and we'd bake for hours. It wasn't the baking itself that was so special, it was simply the time spent with her. It's those precious moments I would love to have back now that she is gone. I feel like our rolling pins are a conduit for that, getting in the kitchen and making memories with someone you love. Even if the cookies burn, that doesn't matter. What matters is the time spent together, creating special memories. That is my wish for everyone who uses one of our Sweet Rolling Pins, and who reads this book!"
