Deep in the heart of western Brooklyn, on a tree-lined street in the neighborhood of Cobble Hill, sits One Girl Cookies. Owned and operated by Dawn Casale and David Crofton, the aqua-walled bakery specializes in comforting and simple baked goods inspired by family and refined through years of experimentation. Now, the married couple has published their first cookbook. Named One Girl Cookies (Clarkson Potter) after their labor of love, it includes 70 recipes for cakes, cookies, whoopie pies, and more.

To celebrate the book’s release, Casale and Crofton are sharing three of their best recipes with Grandparents.com readers. We think you’ll love their twists on beloved classics.
