The Boozy Baker. The Boozy Baker: 75 Recipes for Spirited Sweets ($13) contains recipes for desserts (cakes, tarts, pies, cookies, etc) with a healthy dose of alcohol. Author, Lucy Baker, does a great job at giving history of the liquors she uses and explaining how the alcohol enhances the flavors of the dessert. The book also includes sidebars throughout with instructions for preparing funky cocktails that add a punchy compliment to many of the recipes.
