Williams Sonoma Triple Chocolate BrowniesThis is a very popular recipe that I simplified a bit without losing any of it's goodness. You can serve these when you feel like a dark chocolate cake but don't have time to hassle with it. They make a wonderful end to any meal! They are super chocolaty, so they go really well with a scoop of vanilla or coffee ice cream! |

Ellen Straus's Pie Crust RecipeThis hefty, absolutely unbelievable crust is what our family grew up on. We love it! The pie crust is thick and tastes almost like shortbread but better. It is an ideal crust for any type of fruit (strawberries, Santa Rosa plums or apples). You will need a spring form type of pie pan. |

Apple Crisp – Microwave Quick!I haven’t found a quicker apple crisp recipe that tastes as good (or better) than oven-baked. Simple prep and fast cooking make this a perfect dessert when you’re short on time. Plus you can make it year round as the microwave won't heat up the kitchen. |

When it’s time for dessert, remove from freezer, add the glaze and serve. A stand mixer works best to whip the filling if available: be sure bowl and beaters are clean and… |

Chewy Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Bar CookiesQuick to make, these bar cookies are a sister version of drop cookies (the dough can actually be made into those if you prefer.) Oatmeal and nuts provide a light crunchiness to the moist and munchy texture. In brief - a delightful cookie your company will love! |
