Tiramisu from Williams-Sonoma Essentials of Italian

This is not a sweet, somewhat bland tiramisu that makes people wonder what exactly is so great about tiramisu. Not at all. It is very rich, not too sweet, and 100% worth the preparation time. read more >

Butter Croissants

Time consuming but oh, so worth it. Make sure you have an afternoon or evening booked off to putter around between dough foldings because the results are fantastic. I didn't go through the rigamarole of rising the dough in plastic bags before baking, just sprayed them lightly with oil and let them sit for an hour or so. An absolute treat.

Everyday Cocoa Cake

Easy and tasty - not amazing, but a respectable cake for when you have a late-night yen for something chocolate since you probably already have all the ingredients in the cupboard.

Summer Corn Chowder with Bacon

Absolutely wonderful! This chowder freezes beautifully so I always make a double or triple batch in the late summer so I can use fresh corn (this chowder is ten times better if you use fresh corn instead of frozen) and treat myself with it throughout the winter. When I make it I use leek instead of the fennel, and sweet potato instead of the squash to add some colour. Fantastic.
