Dorie Greenspan’s Mocha Walnut Torte
A rich walnut torte, that happens to be gluten-free and full of chocolate and coffee flavor, is a perfect dessert for sharing. Especially when covered with rich ganache.
French Onion Brisket
Not all briskets need a tomato braise, as this gorgeous sherry-infused recipe shows. Caramelized onions add an ultra rich flavor, too.

Dense and rich, this gluten-free cake is a fave among the Portuguese, and anyone who’s ever tried it. Its unforgettable taste comes from almonds, lemon, cinnamon, and vanilla.
St. Germain Cocktail
St. Germain, sparkling wine, and soda water. Lightly effervescent, slightly inebriating, and thoroughly enjoyable.
Nach Waxman’s Beef Brisket
Like a chorus line of Rockettes, tender slices of brisket lean on each other in perfect symmetry and perfect doneness. Here’s how to replicate this performance at home.
Braised Brisket with Red Wine and Honey
Sweet and tangy and fall-apart tender. That’s what we think of this crowd-pleasing braised brisket that makes us go weak in the knees.
Apple, Parmesan, and Mixed Green Salad
Gala Apples. Walnuts. Parmesan. And mixed baby greens. It seems like a recipe for autumnal perfection, yes?
Double Chocolate Pots de Crème
Luxury is two kinds of chocolate. One is a soft, cool custard; the other is dark, warm, and smooth. Rich and creamy, they’re exquisite.
Pavlova with Fresh Berries
If you’re looking for a stunning last course that’s spectacular and makes quite a statement, this pavlova is just the thing. Here’s how to make it.
