Pecan tarts with caramel sauce: flaky homemade pastry shells filled with a brown-butter pecan filling, baked golden, then drizzled with silky amber caramel. Individual holiday tartlets worth the effort.

Tastier than anticipated. My fiance was impressed. Good to refrigerate and reheat for lunch. It's better to reheat in the oven rather than the microwave to keep the crispiness of the bread.

A spicy-sweet variation of the typical breakfast egg sandwich.

A chocolaty, moist and delicious cake that's easy to make and everyone loves.

Fresh and seasonal plums, creamy and rich custard are baked together to make this irresistibly decadent plum clafoutis.

This is probably the best scalloped potatoes I've had. We made our own cream of mushroom soup with dried wild mushrooms (see recipe link below). Tons of rich mushroom flavor that was embedded in the potatoes along with a nice cheesy flavor throughout. We used a nice old cheddar. The paprika was a nice touch and it ended up giving the potatoes a very rich color (see photos).

Vanilla Irish coffee with hot coffee, Irish whiskey, and a vanilla-sweetened whipped cream float. The classic San Francisco-style cocktail upgraded with a touch of vanilla.

An easy to make and impressive appetizer or snack. Smokey, creamy and packed with flavor.

Twice baked potatoes are always welcome on the dinner tables. They are packed with deliciousness, and quite versatile to make. Such as these twice baked potatoes with gouda and pesto, definitely tummy pleasers.

Fluffy baking powder biscuits: a quick seven-ingredient biscuit dough with shortening and a touch of cream of tartar for tall, light, tender biscuits. Ready in 22 minutes start to finish.

Very, very good. I used 1/2 semi sweet and 1/2 bittersweet - more of a sophisticated flavor. It was yummy. Stick to the milk chocolate or semi-sweet for the kids though. Besides a variety of fruit, I bought those little creme puffs in the freezer section - they were delicious dipped in the chocolate!
