Dolly Parton knows how to whip up a tasty banana pudding, and the singer explains how to make the dessert and more than 125 other recipes in a new cookbook to raise money for her Imagination Library.
Advance sales for "Dolly's Dixie Fixin's" began last week, and people who buy the cookbook will enter to win a backyard barbecue and bluegrass festival with Parton as a special guest, Dollywood Foundation officials said in a report from Pigeon Forge, Tenn.
All proceeds from the cookbook will go to Parton's Dollywood Foundation, which supports the Imagination Library. The program provides a free book a month for children from birth to age 5.
