I judge cookbooks the same way I judge meals: by the desserts. However gloriously crunchy, salty, savory, spicy and cheesy all the other the content may be, if there isn't something resembling cake at the end, I become very crabby.

So when a few years ago I received the first cookbook from America's sweetheart, Chrissy Teigen, I gasped when it abruptly ended with a recipe for stuffed chicken breasts. As Teigen explains in the introduction to "Cravings," she wanted her book to have everything — "except dessert." This to me is like ending a rom-com before someone runs to the airport to declare their love in front of a TSA agent.

But something changed along the way to Teigen's second cookbook, "Cravings: Hungry for More." This time around, the mother of two includes a modest but impressive chapter devoted to sweets, thus enabling me to now feel free to emulate her lifestyle in my own small, EGOT-free home.

When it's too hot for anything baked, my family and I still scream for ice cream. Teigen's recipe for a magic shell topping is well-known — I first discovered it via Cook's Illustrated. It typically is made with coconut oil, and my daughters share a vehement loathing of all things coconut.

It turns out, however, that you can create your own Klondike Bar experience efficiently with any neutral oil. I think it's even better — and more authentic tasting — this way than with the coconut option. Then, dress up that bowl of ice cream even further with a salty, nutty cereal crackle from Teigen's chocolate mousse recipe. While you may never appear in the swimsuit issue of Sports Illustrated, you'll definitely have a damn fine sundae to see through the dog days of August.
