Chocolate tart is to desserts what a little black dress is to fashion: simple, elegant, and timeless. We all need, and probably already have, a go-to recipe. This baked chocolate tart is a take on the classic ganache tart, with a baked custard and a […]

No-Churn Olive Oil Ice Cream With Hot Fudge
Oh look at that, it’s ice cream season. I blinked and now it’s June. The older I get the truer cliches seem to get. Like a dysfunctional symbiotic relationship. These days, I’m the insufferable grownup saying things like, well the year sure is going by […]
Strawberry Black Pepper Jam
Strawberry Black Pepper Jam – a very humble recipe that begged to be shared. This is a lesson in turning your rotting berries into jam. Don’t throw your rotting berries away! Not in this economy. Before you judge me, I agree, the term “rotting fruit” […]
Peaches and Cream Pavlovas
I’m so behind on recipes. Summer is officially over and peaches are slowly leaving grocery stores shelves, and yet here we are with… Peaches and Cream Pavlovas! But who says pavlovas are strictly a summer recipe? If you can’t find peaches, there’s always berries and […]
Strawberry Peach Cobbler
I make peach cobbler every summer and for years this Bon Appetit recipe has been my go-to. This year I thought I’d try a different variation, and this one is adapted from Dorie Greenspan’s Everyday Dorie. I find drop-biscuit cobblers perfect for summer, but I’m not gonna lie; I’m […]
Classic French Crêpes
These pancake’s French counterpart are so delicate and delicious. Classic French Crêpes are elegant and thin, because they don’t have any leavening agents, which also means they’re not as fluffy. But they’re folded and rolled with a plethora of fillings, so they can be just […]
Mini Croissants with Dulce de Leche Ganache
These Mini Croissants with Dulce de Leche Ganache are lovely little dessert/snack is the easiest thing to put together. Think of it as churros, but easier, because we’re not making anything from scratch, we’re cheating! Instead of making your own croissants and turning this into a […]
Miso Chocolate Chip Cookies
These miso chocolate chip cookies are delightful. I love a salty-sweet combo (like pineapple on pizza. yes, I like pineapple on pizza!!), and the miso here adds a lovely and subtle salty, earthy taste to the cookies. This recipe is a typical chocolate chip cookie […]
Cornbread Loaf
Aside from the toasted almond flour (we’ll get into that in a second), everything else id pretty straightforward as it should be: dry ingredients in a bowl, wet ingredients in a blender. Pour wet ingredients over dry ingredients, stir to combine and pop it in […]
Strawberry Shortcake Pudding Cups
A few weeks ago I had the privilege to go to New York. Visiting New York is always a privilege, you’re instantly reminded that there’s so much to do and and so much to see in the world. Then, you realize that really, you’re just […]
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
I made these cookies a few weeks ago, back when fall was in full swing. Fast forward to now, when everyone’s busy baking gingerbread cookies, I thought, well, better late than never. It’s still pumpkin season after all, and the recipe does call for ginger, […]
Fresh Peach Cake
Peach season is not officially over until late September, and that’s great news because it means you still have time to try this gorgeous Fresh Peach Cake. An Ina Garten’s recipe, it’s truly phenomenal and flawless. The combination of fresh peaches, cinnamon and nuts and […]
Buttermilk Donut Holes
These little Buttermilk Donut Holes hold a special place in my heart. Growing up, my mom used to make these from time to time, but she’d usually keep them for rainy days. They always felt like such special little treats. We’d ask her to undercook […]
Oatmeal Almond Cookie Sandwiches
I’m always thrilled to find healthy-ish desserts, like these Oatmeal Almond Cookie Sandwiches. Although technically, I never need an excuse to indulge in desserts. I’m usually very pleased to satisfy my sweet tooth, whatever it takes. I’ve recently come to the conclusion that what is […]
Poached Pear and Ricotta Tart
There’s one thing you should know about me: I bake a lot. I love desserts, I make a lot of desserts. Although I rarely share dessert recipes on here, it’s an integral part of my routine – but if you want to see them, they’re […]
