Crunchy Almond, Chocolate and Caramel Cake
«With its delicately piped ganache and buttercream teardrops, you’ll want to serve this dessert right away. BUT All the components can be made in advance: Just freeze the cake and refrigerate the buttercream and ganache for two to three days and store the almond meringue in an airtight container until you’re ready to assemble.» — Kareen, kitchen director

Flaky Shortcrust Pastry
Rather than incorporating small cubes of butter into this dough, the butter is thinly sliced. Using your fingertips to break up the sliced butter in the flour will create a beautiful puff pastry effect.

Skillet Apple Pie
It’s all about balance in this rustic pie where sweet Gala and sour McIntosh meet in the middle of buttery pastry. Tapioca, sprinkled on the inside of the pie, soaks up any extra apple juices, helping the crust stay wonderfully crisp and golden.

Baked Apple Sorbet
How do you improve on baked apples? Purée and sorbet them! The smooth applesauce at the core of this cool treat is made with a mix of sweetly crisp Cortland and tart McIntosh, which breaks down easily when cooked.

Chocolate Monkey Bread
If you don’t have a Bundt pan for this dessert, an angel-food pan (or chimney pan without a removable bottom) of the same size will do the trick.

Apple Strudel
Bright red Cortland apples star in this strudel. Precooking the spiralized baking apples (and brushing butter between layers of phyllo) guarantees extra-flaky pastry. Bonus: The Cortland’s juices reduce to a glorious syrup to add to cocktails or on top of ice cream.
