The Perfect Tarts for Guests (Or Just Yourself, No Judgement)

Do you ever have a recipe you pull out of a magazine and go back to over and over?

That was the theory of Saveur’s 25th Anniversary Issue, revisiting some of their favorite past creations. But instead of just choosing the most popular they went to their test kitchen directors past and present to find the recipes that really stuck with the people who saw them the most.

Current test kitchen director, Kat Craddock knew exactly which one she would choose. The Canadian Butter Tarts from a 2000 issue spoke to her as a teenager and she carried the recipe with her over the years. So we decided to have Kat over to share this intentionally runny and intensely delicious recipe that she has been going back to for 20 years.

Blondies Can Get Even Better

I’m not sure much is better than a blondie. It’s basically just a giant sugar carb chewy delight. But Nicole Rucker changed the game with her recipe that adds fruit into the mix. A little bit of extra sweetness from a different source makes them even brighter.

We got Nicole’s recipe via her new book Dappled: Baking Recipes for Fruit Lovers, which is exactly what it sounds like. If you love dessert and you love adding fruit into your desserts, then you are in luck. I almost audibly gasped when I saw it, since I am a major fruit dessert kind of gal (I think Bring It! had almost as many fruit desserts as not, and I’m not sorry about it).
