Witty, charming, privileged Cher Horowitz leads the pack at her Beverly Hills high school in Amy Heckerling’s cult classic Clueless. Through the eyes of style-obsessed Cher, we join in the fun of makeovers, the rollercoaster ride of crushes and friendships, and the social hierarchy of high school. Inspired by the snacks, drinks, and meals highlighted throughout the film, the Southern California healthy eating craze, and the best of the 1990s, the recipes in this official cookbook are tribute to the adventures and calamities of Cher, Dionne, Tai, Murray, Josh, Travis, and all the rest of our favorite Clueless characters. From take-it-with-you options like Gnarly Skateboarder’s Breakfast Sandos to homemade versions of snack foods that litter the lunch tables at Cher’s school (Off-the-Diet Popcorn, anyone?), the recipes in this cookbook bring the personalities and narrative of Clueless to life.
