"Christmas Carol" Cookbook (Hollywood Cookbook S.) - Tapa dura

The classic movie version of Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" evokes the magical flavours of the holiday season in this addition to Abbeville's Hollywood Cookbook series. Intended as party planners, these easy-to-follow recipes (each with a maximum of ten ingredients and short preparation time), are sprinkled with amusing trivia from the movie. In this book, Dicken's popular story, brought to the screen by MGM in 1938, provides the backdrop for Christmas party food, including hot and cold starters, drinks, cookies, desserts and edible gifts for family and friends. Party recipes provided range from a magnificent Victorian Christmas party hosted by Ebenezer Scrooge's nephew Fred, to a simpler yet festive get-together at the Cratchits. They include Scrooge's Lemon Tarts, Tiny Tim's Miniature Popovers, Yule Punch with Spirits, Humbug Pie, and Gingerbread Ghosts.
