It’s a simple, elegant dish that you can serve in a large glass container or in individual jars. The quintessential southern dessert is found on the back of the box of Nilla wafers. […]

So, the only reasonable thing to do is make a 4th of July Baked Alaska with homemade ice cream and top it with flaming meringue. If you don’t want to make your own […]

Her book, The Last Course, was a collection of desserts she created for the venerable restaurant, Gramercy Tavern, in New York. It is an understatement to say her book was a steady guide to […]
