Dorie Greenspan’s Mocha Walnut Torte

This cake is an excellent keeper and, because it’s sturdy, a good traveler—make it for a friend or take it to a potluck. It’s good plain and good with whipped cream or crème fraîche. And if you want to dress it up, it takes nicely to a drizzle of chocolate ganache.

Whether you serve the cornbread straight from the oven or at room temperature, slathered with butter (and maybe a drizzle of honey) or plain as can be, you’ll find yourself marveling at how little effort it takes to make something so good.

Dorie Greenspan’s Rugelach

I've made rugelach countless times, but nowadays my dough is even more foolproof because I make it in a food processor. I've also made a few other changes to the recipe. While my mother-in-law's rugelach were filled with cinnamon-sugared nuts, mine also include a slick of jam, some currants, and a handful of chopped chocolate.

Almond Flounder

Almond flounder meunière is an inventive mashup of two classic dishes–sole amandine and sole meunière. My version uses baby flounder that is lightly breaded, cooked in brown butter, and sprinkled with toasted almonds.

World Peace Cookies 2.0

I added rye flour for groundedness; cocoa nibs to represent strength; pepper for a touch of unpredictability; and raspberries for sharpness and verve. The raspberries are freeze-dried and their flavor takes a little time to reveal itself. While you taste them soon after the cookies cool, they really come into their own a day later.

If the French celebrated Thanksgiving, I’m sure they’d find a place at the table for this cauliflower gratin recipe. Simply made, appealingly rustic, and very tasty, it can sit alongside the main course or, with a little salad (and maybe even some cranberry sauce), take the stage alone for brunch, lunch, or supper.

  1. Love Dorie’s recipes! I used her World Peace Cookies 1.0 recipe to make these turkeys a few years ago to donate to a battered women’s shelter. They’re delicious. Haven’t tried 2.0 recipe yet.
