Brown Butter Rice Krispies Treats
: Ekatarina Smirnova

The kid classic goes glam here with brown butter and sea salt. Sorta like your four-year-old trying on your heels and pearls...but with a heck of a lot more grace.

Soft Peanut Butter Cookies
: Viktor Kochetkov

We’ll demolish almost any version of peanut butter cookies. But these, with their slightly crisp edges and oh-so-soft, melt-in-your-mouth center, are among the best we’ve ever experienced.

Pumpkin pie. Cheesecake. And no, that’s not a choice you have to make. You get both. You’re welcome. (New Thanksgiving tradition, anyone?)

A quick bread that pretty much captures the essence of autumn with a sigh-inducingly, knee-wobblingly inviting aroma and compelling blend of sweet spices. Idyllic? Heck yeah.
