I’m seriously in love with Challah, and my husband encourages this affair. What’s not to love? It tastes so good, and (pardon me while I become a kitchen nerd here) I can use my oven’s proofing function. It took some tweaking of several other recipes to come up with a version I liked, and this it. Always a hit.

Leek & Spinach Stuffed Bread
A super-satisfying stuffed bread.
Upscale it with pretty folds and plated service … or make it casual, handheld fare.

Artisan bread in 5 minutes a day? What could go wrong? A kitchen disaster defers date night and creates a very expensive loaf of bread. But there’s a happy ending with an Easter brunch date.
Artisan Bread Dough

Whether you’re doing a couples thing or a small Galentines event, this cake will fit the bill—a dark chocolate mess of happiness … and healthiness! Don’t celebrate “Hallmark holidays”? This cake is still worth a try. After all, dark chocolate is good for your heart.
Magic Muffins
What a great magic trick: this substantial muffin tastes sweet enough to be a cupcake but packs a punch of magic—zucchini—to help get those vegetable servings even in something that feels like a splurge. And if you want to splurge, ice them and make them magic cupcakes!
