This tart comes from a recipe I first learned of at a baking demo that the lovely (and aptly genius) Kristen Miglore did for her beautiful book Genius Desserts back in 2018. The original recipe, by way of Karen DeMasco of ABC Kitchen fame, is for a ...

honey sesame corn pudding
I am new to corn pudding, but what I lack in history I make up for in fervor. There's a special place in my heart for those dishes that look like sides but are really not so far from dessert, sneaking into the party early (extra marshmallows on the sweet potato ...

hazelnut coffee cheesecake
