Sweet Treats for Every Occasion

After years of baking for every occasion imaginable, these are the dessert recipes that never let me down. Started with my mom's chocolate chip cookie recipe and kept building from there. Now I've got everything from that super-simple berry crisp that's perfect for last-minute guests, to my show-stopping triple chocolate cake that makes everyone think I'm a pro baker. Some are quick and easy for sweet tooth emergencies, others are weekend projects worth every minute. These recipes have seen me through countless birthdays, potlucks, and late-night cravings.
