Makes one 10-inch cake; serves 10 to 12
INGREDIENTS
- 1 pound semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 16 pieces, plus 2 tablespoons melted butter for coating cake pan
- 8 large eggs, separated, at room temmperature
- Pinch of salt
- 3/4 cup superfine sugar, plus more for coating cake pan
- 2 tablespoons Cognac, dark rum, or whiskey
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
-
DIRECTIONS
- Plance an oven rack on the middle shelf of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush a 10-inch spring-form pan with melted butter and coat the bottom and sides of the pan with superfine sguar. Tap out any excess sugar.
- In a double boiler over barley simmering water, melt together the chocolate and 1 cup butter. Stir until smooth. Or, combine the chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat, uncovered, on medium power for 1.5 to 4 minutes, until the butter melts and the chocolate becomes soft and shiny. Remove teh bowl from the microwave and stir until chocolate is completely melted and thoroughly combined with the butter. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, using a hand-held mixer set at medium sppeed, beat the egg yolks and salt until blended. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar and beat for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the mixture is pale yellow and forms a slowly dissolving ribbon on the surface of the batter when the beaters are lifted. Whisk in the Cognac and vanilla. Gradually whisk the egg yolk mixture into the melted chocolate.
- In a large, clean bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar with an electric mixer at low speed until foamy. Increase the mixer speed to medium-high and continue beating until the whites become opaque and form soft mounds in the bowl. Continue beating, adding the remaining 1/2 cup sugar 1 tablespoon at a time, until soft peaks form.
- Stir one third of the beaten egg whites into the chocolate batter to soften it. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the remaining egg whites just until blended.
- Spoon the chocolate batter into the preparedd pan. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the cake appears puffy and firm. The cake should still be moist but not liquid in the center, so a bamboo skewer inserted into the cake should not come out clean.
- Remove the cake from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes. It will fall slightly as it cools. Remove the sides of the pan. Slice and serve the cake slightly warm or at room temperature with Creme Anglaise or ice cream. Drizzle with caramel and chocolate sauces, if using.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 12 tablespoons (1.5 sticks) unsalted butter, melted and cooled until warm
- 1 cup light or dark brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulate sugar
- 1 large egg plus 1 egg yok
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1-1.5 cups semisweet chocolate chips
DIRECTIONS
- Adjust oven racks to upper- and lower-middle positions and heat oven to
325 degrees. Line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt together in medium bowl; set aside.
- Either by hand or with electric mixer, mix butter and sugars until
thoroughly blended. Beat in egg, yolk, and vanilla until combined. Add dry
ingredients and beat at low speed just until combined. Stir in chips to
taste.
- Roll scant 1/4 cup dough into ball. Holding dough ball in fingertips of
both hands, pull into two equal halves. Rotate halves 90 degrees and, with
jagged surfaces facing up, join halves together at their base, again forming
a single ball, being careful not to smooth dough's uneven surface. Place
formed dough onto cookie sheet, leaving 2.5 inches between each ball.
- Bake, reversing position of cookie sheets halfway thorugh baking (from
top to bottom and front to back), until cookies are light golden brown and
outer edges start to harden yet centers are still soft and puffy; 15 to 18
minutes. Cool cookies on sheets. When cooled, peel cookies from parchment.

INGREDIENTS
- 2 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1.5 cups light brown sugar, packed
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (I use Ghiradelli)
- 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional - I don't actually do this)
DIRECTIONS
- Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt together in medium bowl; set aside.
- Beat butter and brown sugar until creamy. Beat in vanilla and eggs, one at a time, mixing on low speed until incorporated.
- Gradually blend dry mixture into creamed mixture. Stir in chocolate chips (and nuts, if desired).
- Let rest in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours. Very Important. Do not skip this step.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare two trays with parchment paper.
- Make large cookies, about 1/2 cup per scoop. A recipe for me makes about 22 cookies (2 trays of 6 and then after those are done two trays of 5).
- Bake, reversing position of cookie sheets halfway thorugh baking (from
top to bottom and front to back), until cookies are light golden brown and
outer edges start to harden. Takes about 20-22 minutes, depening on the oven.
Cool cookies on sheets. When cooled, peel cookies from parchment.
- Recipe based on Kenji Lopez-Alt's article The Food Lab: The Science of the Best Chocolate Chip Cookies. His actual preferred recipe is quite different and I was not a fan of the result but I was able to use the comments in his article to modify the standard recipe on the back of a bag of chocolate chips to make cookies that I think are great, after many years of trying.
- Here are the changes from the standard recipe. Use baking powder instead of soda. Use all brown sugar rather than a mix of white and brown. Let the dough rest for 12-24 hours before baking.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup (two sticks) unsaled butter, at room temperature
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 and 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 and 3/4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (not instant or quick cooking)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 and 1/2 cups raisins
DIRECTIONS
- Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or a handheld mixer
or wooden spoon), cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar
on medium speed for about 5 minutes, or until the mixture is light and fluffy.
(This step will take 10 minutes if using a hand mixer or wooden spoon.) Stop
the mixer a few times and use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides and bottom
of the bowl and the paddle to release any clinging butter or sugar. Beat in
the eggs on medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes, or until thoroughly combined.
Scrape the bowl and the paddle again to make sure the eggs are thoroughly
incorporated.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, oats, baking soda, salt,
nutmeg, and cinnamon. Add the raisins and toss to combine. On low speed,
slowly add the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture and then mix just
until the flour mixture is totally incorporated and the dough is evenly
mixed.
- For the best results, scrape the dough into an airtight container and let
it rest in the refrigerator overnight (or for at least 3 to 4 hours) before
baking. When ready to bake, position a rack in the center of the oven, and
heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Drop the dough in 1/4-cup balls onto a baking sheet, spacing them about
2 inches apart. Flatten each ball slightly with the palm of your hand.
- Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, or until the cookies are golen brown on the
edges and slightly soft in the center. Be careful not to overbake. Soft,
chewy centers make these cookies irresistible. Let cool on the baking sheet
on a wire rack for 5 to 10 minutes, then transfer the cookies to the rack to
cool completely.
- The cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature
for up to 3 days. The unbaked dough can be stored in an airtight container
in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

This recipe has for me completely replaced the recipe above.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 and 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 3 and 1/2 very ripe, medium bananas, peeled and mashed
- 2 tablespoons creme fraiche or sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup walnut halves, toasted and chopped
DIRECTIONS
- Position a rack in the center of the oven, and heat the oven to 325
degrees F. Butter a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan.
- In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set
aside.
- Using a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment, beat together the
sugar and eggs on medium speed for about 5 minutes, or until light and fluffy.
(If you use a handheld mixer, this step will take about 8 minutes.)
- On low speed, slowly drizzle in the oil. Don't pour the oil in all at
once. Add it slowly so it has time to incorporate into the eggs and doesn't
deflate the air you have just beaten into the batter. Adding it should take
about 1 minute. Add the bananas, creme fraiche (or sour cream), and vanilla
and continue to mix on low speed just until combined.
- Using rubber spatula, fold in the flour mixture and the nuts just until
thoroughly combined. No flour streaks should be visible, and the nuts should
be evenly distributed. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth
the top.
- Bake for 1 to 1.25 hours, or until golden brown on top and the center
springs back when you press it. If your finger sinks when you poke the bread,
it needs to bake a little longer. Let cool in the wire pan on a wire rack for
at least 30 minutes, and then pop it out of the pan to finish cooling.
- The banana bread can be stored tightly wrapped in plastic wrap at room
temperature for up to 3 days. Or, it can be well wrapped in plastic wrap and
frozen for up to 2 weeks; thaw overnight at room temperature for serving.

INGREDIENTS
- 1 garlic clove, halved
- 1.5 cups dry white wine
- 4 cups(1 lb.) grated Swiss cheese (a mix of Emmentaler and Gruyere is best; less expensive Swiss cheesse like Jarlsberg also work fine)
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 2 Tbs. flour
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
- dash of garlic salt
- 2 Tbs. Kirschwasser
- French bread sections. Recipe needs about 1.5 French baguettes which should be baked as recently as possible. Each piece should have a siginificant edge of bread crust for the fondue skewer to hold on to. I generally cut the bread into about .5 inch slices and then cut each of those slices into 3 pieces by cutting one piece from the end and then splitting the remaining two thirds vertically
DIRECTIONS
- Rub fondue pot with garlic clove and then pour in wine and heat at CHEESE
setting until wine bubbles(4 or 5 minutes).
- In bowl toss cheese, baking soda, flour, cayenne pepper, and garlic salt and then add to heated wine
slowly (1/2 cup at a time or so). Stir in figure eight motion until evenly
blended and melted.
- Add Kirschwasser once the cheese is fully melted. Stir until well
blended and then heat about 5 minutes to develop flavor.
- Use skewers to dip French bread in cheese mixture. Recipe feeds 3
to 4 people.
INGREDIENTS
- Round Steak cut very thin
- Raw Bacon
- Onions
- Burgundy wine
DIRECTIONS
- Roll and pound meat so it is as thin as possible. Chop and mix onion and
bacon together. A Cuisinart is very useful for this, although it can be done
by hand. Place a large spoonful or so in the middle of each piece of meat.
Roll up and tie with string or hold together with toothpicks.
- Brown in butter, and then simmer in burgundy with a little water for quite
a while (several hours) until it picks up the flavor and has the right level
of tenderness for you. Freezes very well, in
some of the wine mixture used in cooking, for a later time.
INGREDIENTS
- 2.5-3 pounds of stew meat
- 1 pound of carrots, peeled and chopped in about 1 inch pieces
- 2 large onions, cut into eighths
- 11.5 oz can Cream of Mushroom soup
- 1/2 package of Dried Onion soup

Prepare Basic Coffee Cake Dough
Warm a large mixing bowl. Place in it.
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Crumble over it:
2 cakes yeast
Make a hollow in the flour and pour into it:
1/4 cup lukewarm milk and 1/4 cup lukewarm water
Add:
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
Stir these ingredients until they are well blended. Cover them and put them
in a warm place to rise for 20 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, beat until soft:
1/2 cup butter
Add gradually:
1/4 to 1/2 cup sugar
Blend these ingredients until they are creamy. Add:
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
2 beaten eggs
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup milk
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Sift:
4 cups all-purpose flour
Stir part of it into the butter mixture, then knead in the rest with your
hands. Add the yeast mixture to the butter mixture and knead the dough well.
Cover it and permit it to rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until it
has doubled in bulk.
Next Steps
Prepare Basic Coffee Cake Dough (above).
After the first rising of the dough, punch it down and let it rise again until
doubled in bulk (about 45 minutes). Roll out the dough on a lightly floured
counter into a 9 x 18 inch oblong (approximately rectangular shaped). Spread
over it:
1/4 cup melted butter
1/4 cup sugar mixed with 1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 cup raisins (prepared by running boiling water over)
After this point, you have a choice to make, to make the standard Swedish Tea
Ring or to make Sticky Buns. Follow the appropriate set of instructions below.
For Swedish Tea Ring
Roll the dough from the long side into an 18 inch long cylinder. Shape
cylinder into a ring and try to meld ends together. Place the ring on a
large greased cookie sheet. Hold floured kitchen shears perpendicularly to
cut bias gashes into the outer edges of the ring. Cut to within 1 inch of
the inner edge. The slices should be about 1 1/2 inches wide at the rim,
tapering to 1/2 inch at the center. As you cut, turn each partially cut
slice flat on the cookie sheet. Cover the ring with a damp cloth. Permit
the ring to rise until doubled in bulk (about 30 minutes). The top may be
brushed lightly with:
Melted butter or cream
Bake ring in a 375 degree oven for 25-30 minutes. When removed from oven,
immediately spread it with the following butter icing:
Combine:
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup confectioners sugar
Add to make a good consistency to spread:
Cream
Place the iced ring in the over for 1 minute to glaze it.
For Sticky Buns Variation
Prepare two 9" cake pans by mixing at a high speed 1/2 cup butter and 1 cup
dark brown sugar and then spreading to cover the bottom of each cake pan.
Then coarsely chop 1/2 cup pecans and spread over the bottoms of each cake
pan. This is actually best done during the second rising of the dough.
Roll the dough from the long side into an 18 inch long cylinder. Cut cylinder
into around 1.25" sections. Distribute cylinders on one end loosely around
prepared cake pans. Cover each cake pan with a damp cloth and let rise until
doubled in bulk (about 30 minutes).
Bake sticky bun pans in a 375 degree oven for 35-40 minutes. Wait around
10 minutes after removing from oven and then upend each pan onto a plate.
