Do you have a Harry Potter fan in your life?  If so, we've just found the perfect gift idea for them, or us.  You know, if you're just looking to buy someone a present.  Anyhoo, The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook looks so, super cool, we're excited by the mere idea of it!  The first line of the description of this book reads: "With this cookbook, dining a la Hogwarts is as easy as Banoffi Pie."  Well, okay then.  Add to cart, add to cart, add to cart.

Written by Dinah Bucholz, this book has been around since 2010, but it's new to us, and that's how we like it.  Every time we discover a "new" Harry Potter item, it's like Christmas for us, and that's exactly why we decided to share our discovery of this book with you.  While you could probably compile your own book of recipes for meals and treats found in the Harry Potter series, why bother, when Bucholz has already done it for you?  Not to mention, she has tirelessly scoured the origins of some of the recipes and added a blurb about each meal's history to the side.

Host a Harry Potter themed feast in your own Great Hall, perfect for Halloween parties, or other Harry Potter themed get-togethers.  What a fun idea for how to keep the kids busy on a cold wet day, inside.  Within the pages of this book, you'll find over 150 magical recipes for wizards and muggles alike.  Some of the delicious meals included are: Treacle Tart, Mrs. Weasley's Meat Pies, Kreacher's French Onion Soup, Pumpkin Pasties, Pumpkin Juice, Cauldron Cakes, and many, many more!  With the Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook, you'll find your kitchen mischief managed.
