Roast chicken is pretty much perfect on its own but when it’s smothered in Julia Turshen’s onion gravy, we just can’t say no. You won’t be able to, either.

Crisp edges. Chewy center. Caramelized awesomeness that defies words. And a marginal healthfulness from oats that makes it entirely too easy to justify having another one.

Toni Tipton-Martin's meatballs take a bath in homemade BBQ sauce that boasts an incredible sweet heat and a complexity that you'd never believe happens with so little effort.

This smash burger delivers a satisfying sizzle as the burgers meet heat and, even more satisfying, attain that elusive crusty exterior while maintaining an astoundingly juicy interior.

A ginormous, warm, gooey, chocolatey cookie baked in a single skillet so there's no waiting for batch after batch to come out of the oven.

Let us introduce you to the most Googled recipe of 2019. No, it doesn't have cauliflower. And it's certainly not keto. It's a not-quite-classic shepherd's pie gilded with sweetly caramelized onions and smothered with Cheddar. To heck with tradition.

We're sorta surprised you're still reading this rather than clicking on the title given how compelling the ingredients in the title are...

This triple layer of awe-inspiring cakedom is baked with rich molasses and apple and frosted with a decadent cream and caramel sauce.

As much of a one-pan wonder as they come. Willpower doesn’t stand a chance against this cheesy baked spaghetti casserole.

A gussied-up riff on an American classic made with a bourbon-spiked sauce and glammed up with Cheddar and pickled red onions.

Crisp at the edges. Chewy within. Peanutty through and through. A classic perfected. Pass the milk, please.

"This was beyond the best carrot cake I have ever had." That's what we're hearing about this cake, which ingeniously relies on puréed, rather than grated, carrots.

A holiday cookie if we ever saw one! So buttery, so nutty, so delicate, so mind-bendingly charming, these traditional Viennese cookies rival the city's fancier pastries as our fave.
