Pies, Tarts, Crisps
Cheese Danish
A startlingly spectacular made-from-scratch cheese Danish that is going to forever change your notion of what a cheese Danish ought to be.
Eggnog Pie
Essentially a slightly tipsy cheesecake, this bourbon-enhanced eggnog pie is something we’re classifying as “holiday desserts for parties where people like to party.”
Cinnamon Pear Tarts with Puff Pastry
Not only are these sweet cinnamon sugar-coated pear tarts a breeze to whip up, they look pretty darn impressive, too.
Pear Almond Tart
French. Foolproof. Froufrou. Fuss-free. Fenomenal. (Work with us.) Rarely does elegance come together with such ease (and alliteration) as this tart recipe.
Peach and Crème Fraîche Pie
Whether you seek convention or innovation, you’ll find it in this haute yet humble peach pie, which draws on tradition yet still wields some surprises.
Apricot Tart with Frangipane
Apricot tart with frangipane. Because stone fruit season is short. So is life.

Fresh Cherry Tart with Cream Cheese Filling
For this easy tart, fresh cherries are piled atop creamy, whipped cream cheese filling and the whole shebang is nestled inside a nutty tart shell. Sounds divine, doesn’t it?

Giant Peanut Butter Cup

Lemon Tart with Blueberries
The fresh flavors of lemon and blueberry are at their best here in Flo Braker’s easily assembled, elegant tart.
Chocolate Cream Pie with Oreo Crust
First you make an Oreo cookie crust. Then you smother it with a bittersweet and semisweet chocolate custard. The final flourish is whipped cream infused with vanilla. Sigh.
Easy Rhubarb Crisp
An obscenely easy, sweetly tart rhubarb crisp that you simply must experience at least once. (Although we doubt you’ll be able to stop at just once.)
Coconut Cream Pie
A retro classic with a velvety coconut custard buried beneath billows of sweet, luscious, airy meringue and cushioned by a tender, flaky, buttery lard crust. You’re welcome.
Salted Chocolate Peanut Butter Tart
Chocolate and peanut butter might just be the most perfect marriage possible. This dessert is also elegant. Oh, and did we mention easy too?
Salted Caramel Tart
A ridiculously creamy–and relatively simple–homemade caramel filling graces this properly flaky pastry. Salted butter–lots of it–lends this dessert just the right amount of indulgence.
Southern Sweet Potato Pie
Sugar and spice and everything nice—that’s what you’ll find in this magnificently spiced traditional Southern pie from baker extraordinaire, Cheryl Day.
Caramelized Butternut Squash Pie
This un-pumpkin pumpkin pie is made with caramelized butternut squash, spices, and a splash of brandy. It’s subtly different from the classic yet still oh-so-perfect for Thanksgiving.
Chocolate Pecan Pie
Pecans. Chocolate. Bourbon. Dunno about you, but that’s sufficient to make us forget all about that other traditional Thanksgiving dessert. Pumpkin who?
