I don't even know where to begin in describing the absolute wonder, joy and delight that The Gross Cookbook: Awesome Recipes for (Deceptively) Gross But Delicious Treats (Amazon) has brought into my life! From their delicious savory snacks—which look a lot grosser than they taste—to their creative desserts and drinks, this cookbook is sure to make your mouths water while still making you laugh (and maybe want to gag!).
My friends and I had such a blast with these recipes at our last potluck. We started off trying the Smoked Snails on Toast which was so much more flavorful than it looked! Plus, everyone just loved the presentation. We also made some Porky Pig Burgers that were super juicy but made out of ground cranberries instead of pork or beef which totally sold us all! Plus, the salty crust from the crispy bacon totally pulled everything together in an unexpected way.
The best part though was when we tried out one of their magical looking dessert creations - unicorn poo cupcakes! Nobody knew quite what flavor it would end up being but once we took our first bites it became clear why this recipe won over every single one of us - blueberry fireballs sandwiched between marshmallow rainbows with chocolate stars as garnish ? Absolutely divine! Everyone wanted seconds by then ;)
The Gross Cookbook: Awesome Recipes for (Deceptively) Gross But Delicious Treats (Amazon) may seem intimidating due its name but don't let that fool you; rest assured each recipe will be a hit no matter who tries them out !
