If you grew up loving treats like Kudos Bars, Italian Rainbow Cookies, and chocolate chip cookies, you’re going to have a lot of fun with this conversation. I’m chatting with Alex George, the self-taught baker and creator behind Lily P. Crumbs, about her new cookbook, In the Mood to Bake: Extraordinary Treats from Lily P. Crumbs.

Alex takes the nostalgic desserts we remember from childhood and gives them a homemade twist, while sharing her approach to “riffing”—playing with recipes and making them her own. We also talk about Alex’s journey into baking and the very personal challenges she faced while writing this book.

It’s a conversation about nostalgic desserts, creative baking, and the joy of making something delicious from scratch. And, of course, we talk about what makes the perfect chocolate chip cookie.
