American waffles have nothing over Belgium's best. As gaufre gourmand Kimberley Lovato explains, you only think you know the real deal.

A little something dark and decadent to swoon over on a sultry summer afternoon. A little cinnamon- and cayenne-laced chocolate and cream never hurt anyone.

This purple-stained cake—er, what's left of it—calls for just old-fashioned goodness and the season's most compelling fruits. Got milk?

You can't prolong summer. But you can prolong raspberry season with some lipstick-red berries, a little sugar, and this easy and unerringly helpful recipe.

The defining aroma of an Atlantic boardwalk comprises three things: salty sea air, peanut oil, and Old Bay. You'll find two out of three in these fries. Not bad.

And by "giant," we mean ginormous. Whopping. Biggest ever. Cookbook author and intrepid pasta eater Domenica Marchetti divulges both recipe and reason.

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.

The name of this sweet and sturdy pie crust in French means "so much better than your silly American pastry dough."

Sweet and simple. Nothing but cabbage, cider vinegar, sugar, mayo, a little onion, salt, and oil. Just like you'd find at a BBQ shack.

Plonk unpeeled onions on a baking sheet. Shove in oven. Come back later for achingly sweet, tender, mellow oniony goodness. Accept accolades. See how easy that was?

An unexpected vinaigrette of sorts with a distinctly Asian-inspired vibe that takes its smooth, smooth heat from ginger and chile. But don't try this on salads.

The soul-satisfying collision of brownies and ice cream has been around since we were kids. In case you've ever wanted to recreate it at home, here's the best way we know.

Everything you remember from childhood--slathered with butter, sprinkled with cinnamon, and, if you were lucky, drizzled with honey.

This nifty little number has all the uber richness of cheesecake and all the luxe creaminess of ice cream but with barely any effort. No ice cream maker required.

The quintessential summer sandwich, this stack is stuffed with grilled eggplant, bell peppers, red onions, and zucchini. Open wide.

Better known as seven layer bars, this bewitching stack of graham cracker crumbs, sweetened condensed milk, chocolate, coconut, and nuts just may exceed your childhood memories.

We know. You already have an egg salad sandwich recipe. But trust us, it's nothing like this one, which is whoppingly old school in taste, blissfully healthful in every other way.

True story: This luscious little number inspired one toddler to dip and dunk his way through an entire bag of baby carrots. An entire bag. Behold, the power of the dipper!

Is there anything that screams spring more than lightly buttered peas with a wee bit of mint on top? We think not.

Flaunting an always-stunning, goes-with-anything white, this coconut cake glams up dinner parties, bridal showers, weddings, birthdays, and Tuesday nights.
