The cake requires very little prep and a long chill time, which makes it perfect for a party. You can assemble the entire thing the day you plan to serve it, or even two days before the celebration. You can make this in just about any 2-quart dish with a flat bottom; an 8-inch square pan or 9-inch round pan works perfectly.

Smashed Scallion Burgers

When you notice an abundance of fresh scallions in markets and stores, it’s time to make this springy makeover of the irresistible Oklahoma-style burger. Topping each patty with a copious pile of thin-sliced scallions then searing them in the skillet delivers a smoky, savory burger that feels like a treat any day of the week. The scallion prep might feel a little fussy, but splitting the scallions into segments then thinly slicing them lengthwise ensures they nestle perfectly into the meat. Initially, each scallion pile fills up the skillet, but each mound will significantly reduce in volume once the burger is smashed and flipped. The crispy charred allium bits poking out the sides bring a wonderful textural boost that contrasts with the juicy patties. Watch Carolina Gelen make this dish in this video.

Cardamom Dutch Baby With Caramelized Peaches

Made with pantry staples but dressed up with peaches and cardamom, this Dutch baby makes for a large-format weekend brunch dish that can easily feed the whole family but feels fancy. The recipe takes advantage of the abundance of juicy summer peaches, which simmer gently in a foolproof caramel sauce that uses little more than butter, brown sugar, cardamom and the liquid released from the peaches. A dollop of whipped cream ups the luxury factor. While the peaches can be prepared up to three days in advance and refrigerated, the pancake is best eaten right away, crisp at the edges and fluffy to the core.

Mississippi Chicken

In this rendition of a slow-cooker classic, chicken thighs are transformed into a zesty, pull-apart tender dinner, with plenty of herby, buttery sauce. As the sibling to Mississippi pot roast, this dish has many of that beloved recipe’s staple ingredients, like pepperoncini and butter, but here, instead of packaged ranch seasoning and au jus powder, soy sauce and a blend of fresh herbs and seasonings are used. Mashed potatoes, rice and greens are great sides that will hold up well to the tangy gravy. Consider baking some cornbread or dinner rolls as well while it cooks.

Seven Layer Salad

Seven Layer Salad

As its name implies, this colorful retro salad is composed of seven distinct layers, including vegetables, hard-boiled eggs, bacon, shredded cheese and a creamy dressing. The salad is not tossed, but gets mixed upon serving, allowing for a beautiful presentation and a dish that works well when made in advance. This recipe includes the ingredients and layers typically seen in a seven layer salad, but feel free to swap in your own favorites, using some crunchy cucumber or bell pepper in place of the peas, or avocado in place of the hard-boiled eggs. You can also have fun with the layering, as long as you keep the lettuce and tomato far from the dressing so the salad stays fresh and crisp. The optional red onion is technically an extra layer, but its sharpness works really well with the richness of the dressing, bacon and cheese.
