Easy Skillet Lemon Chicken
Glistening, juicy chicken with crispy skin and a rich, lemony pan-sauce that clings to every bite is not only delicious, but easy to make at home. It requires just one skillet and can be ready in under an hour.
Coconut & Pistachio Cream Pie
There's nothing quite like a generous slice of pie to end a late-night diner run, and this Coconut & Pistachio Cream Pie is my personal gold standard.
Milk Buns with Salted Maple Butter
Light, fluffy, feathery milk buns with a salted maple butter glaze and flakey sea salt. The perfect addition to any dinner party or holiday feast!
Roasted Red Pepper and Feta Cornbread
While there’s nothing wrong with a pan of classic cornbread, this recipe makes for a fun twist when the occasion calls for something a little bit more festive. Jarred roasted red peppers not only add a pop of color, but also a juicy, vinegary tang that balances the richness of the cornbread and helps keep it moist and tender. The feta softens but doesn’t melt, leading to satisfying little pockets of cheese in each piece. Finally, thanks to the sour cream in the batter, this cornbread won’t dry out overnight. To make in advance, fully cool the cornbread, then cover with plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 24 hours before serving.
Éclair Cake
Lush and creamy, éclair cake is a dessert popular in the Midwest and beyond that’s perfect for any gathering, celebration or potluck. Inspired by the flavors of the classic French éclair pastry, this no-bake American iteration is reminiscent of an icebox cake. Typically, graham crackers are softened under layers of a pillowy smooth mix of vanilla pudding and whipped topping, and covered with rich chocolate. This version uses homemade crème légère (a fluffy mix of pastry cream and whipped cream) and a simple homemade semi-sweet chocolate ganache. The crème légère might sound fussy, but the preparation here is streamlined (no tempering of eggs required) and makes for a just-sweet-enough creamy filling. (Of course, in a pinch, you can swap in store-bought pudding and whipped topping.) Éclair cake needs chilling time, which makes it a great make-ahead dessert, and is best served after 24 hours in the fridge.

Glazed Carrots
With only one skillet and a handful of ingredients, you can transform humble carrots into a first-class side dish for holidays—and weeknights too!
Chewy Brown Butter Cookies
Chewy, yes, but these big cookies still have that essential crisp ring around the edge and also include crunchy bits of pecans throughout. Cooked in browned butter, the nuts take on a toasty depth and taste even richer if you start with Elliot pecans, a sweeter, fattier variety grown primarily in Georgia. It’s worth seeking out very dark maple syrup too, which is labeled as such. Intense and complex, it’s ideal for baking because it’s strong enough in taste to act as a seasoning. Even with standard pecans and other shades of syrup, these thoughtfully salted cookies come out caramelly.

Parker House Rolls
These tender, buttery dinner rolls have become a staple on restaurant tables across the US, but they’re simple enough to whip up in your own kitchen. Make them for Thanksgiving and other holidays or just for dinner.
Million Dollar Spaghetti
Unapologetically indulgent, this hearty potluck- and family-friendly baked pasta, popular throughout the South and Midwest, likely earned its name from the rich, dairy-packed ingredient list. In this version, four cheeses — ricotta, cream cheese, mozzarella and Parmesan — are combined and layered in between a quick meat sauce and a pound of pasta. The casserole is more streamlined than its cousin lasagna, thanks to spaghetti, which simply gets divided in half, instead of laboriously layering individual noodles. For extra ease, use jarred marinara (although homemade sauce is welcome, too). The dish can be prepped a day in advance; just be sure to bring it to room temperature an hour before baking to take off the chill.

Pumpkin Spice Latte Tiramisu
This creamy tiramisu evokes the bittersweet, autumnal flavors of a pumpkin spice latte.
Chicken Meatball Soup With Orzo and Dill
This comforting chicken soup with orzo, cabbage and dill boasts tender chicken meatballs instead of the traditional shredded chicken. The soothing broth gets an extra flavor boost from kombu, which infuses the soup with a deeper layer of salty, briny notes. Seasoned with Parmesan and dill, bound with crushed saltines (which can be replaced with plain bread crumbs), and inspired by matzo balls, these juicy ground chicken meatballs come together quickly while the veggies cook. The meatballs can be made a few hours ahead and kept refrigerated. As they poach in the broth, they impart even more chicken flavor to the soup.
Crab and Artichoke Dip
Briny crab and artichokes, paired with creamy cheeses, sour cream and mayonnaise, set the groundwork for this American coastal favorite with regional variations. On the East Coast, this dip is sometimes referred to as Maryland crab dip, as it uses blue crabs from the Chesapeake Bay and Old Bay seasoning; in the Pacific Northwest, Dungeness crab and artichokes are essential to the mix. This version pulls inspiration from both, and you can use whatever variety is available to you at your local market. You don't need to use lump crab. Instead, look for less expensive options, which have small pieces of crab that distribute more evenly in the creamy base. The cheese pull — that long, gooey string that extends as a result of cheese being pulled apart — is the telltale sign that a dip has reached peak richness. Here, fontina achieves maximum cheesiness and doesn’t overpower the other flavors. Serve with crostini, pita or a sleeve of saltines.

Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake
Made with flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and a few other pantry staples, this rich, fudgy cake is what I make when I find myself short on eggs or have a late-night chocolate craving.

Loaded Baked Potato Soup
This silky-smooth soup is loaded with baked potato flavor.
Sour Cream Pancakes With Cardamom Apples
Sweetened and sauced by buttery, sautéed cardamom apples and a two-ingredient maple-sour cream blend, these pancakes are a delicious way to ring in autumn. The pancakes are even special on their own, moist and light thanks to the addition of sour cream. Mixing the flour and the sour cream together before gently folding in the eggs makes for a fluffier pancake. The floral sweetness of the caramelized cardamom apples is a perfect contrast to the tang of the maple sour cream. This recipe can be easily doubled to feed a crowd or scaled down to feed just two.

Savory Crinkle Pie
Our savory phyllo crinkle pie features hearty fall vegetables like butternut squash, shallots, and kale seasoned with garlic, thyme, and aleppo pepper, all tucked away in crunchy layers of phyllo. It’s doused with an herb and garlic–packed cheese custard and baked until the edges are golden crisp and the center creamy. It's easy to make but an impressive centerpiece for a dinner party or brunch.
Chantilly Cake With Berries
You might recognize this berry-laden, emoji-ideal cake from birthday parties, family gatherings or the shelves of supermarket chains selling copycat versions across the country — but this recipe has been perfected by its creator during the last 20 years. Invented by Chaya Conrad, the head chef and owner of Bywater Bakery in New Orleans, when she worked in the bakery department at Whole Foods, this newer version of her famed layer cake skips the traditional yellow cake for an almond-scented white cake base. Inspired by crème Chantilly (whipped cream), the frosting is thickened and stabilized with cream cheese and mascarpone, and has inspired Chantilly donuts, Chantilly king cakes and Chantilly ice cream. “To have something that you’ve made that has turned into such a big deal is pretty wild,” Ms. Conrad observed on the impact of her creation. “In New Orleans, when I pass, they’ll be second lining with Chantilly hats and things.”
