An Indian-inspired riff on a classic that melds crab, sweet corn, and potatoes in a curry-spiked coconut milk broth, resulting in a luxuriously rich yet surprisingly light bisque.

Folks are saying this is the simplest ice cream recipe they've ever made. They're also calling it the most satisfying.

Kids can't resist these sweet little somethings. That includes the kid in all of us.

Dumplings that were named for a pasta-loving priest who got a little gluttonous and strangled himself by swallowing them whole. Gotta be good, eh?

Made with honey syrup, the aptly named Bee's Knees cocktail has its origin in Prohibition, back when simplicity and sweet reigned supreme.

Chinese chicken salad is just like those salads you get at the restaurants with the oranges and cashews and the lovely balance of crunchy and tender and sweet and savory.

Steak marinated in beer and spices, grilled to juicy magnificence, and piled atop lightly charred tortillas. Beats plain old ground beef tacos, eh?

This brilliant sandwich works with any pulled pork you've got, leftover or freshly smoked. But trust us, you won't be able to make these fast enough to keep up with the demand.

Behold warm tortillas piled high with sweet pulled pork, spicy chipotle coleslaw, and tangy barbecue sauce. We bet you can’t stop at one.

Chocolate, cream, sugar, vanilla, and butter. If ever there was a magnificent melding of just a few ingredients, this is it.

Just like the much-ballyhooed chocolate blackout cake from Ebinger's in Brooklyn, this one has the same pudding-like filling, the same tender chocolate crumb, and the same rich, rich frosting.

This pumpkin soup gets a boost from apples and a bite from a cupful of Irish cider. The soup, with its intense pumpkin flavor, makes for great fall fare.

These butter and cream cheese pastries are filled with cinnamon-sugared nuts, a slick of jam, currants, and a handful of chopped chocolate.

Lots of fresh lemon juice and lemon zest are added to the ethereally light and super smooth dessert mousse to give it a zip of flavor.

"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.

Surprisingly easy to make at home, these classic Buffalo wings take their über crispiness from a double dipping in flour and spice. (You're gonna be hooked.)
