One Chocolate Truffle Recipe, Endless Variations
Chocolate truffles are a decadent little two-bite treat any time of year. With their exquisite exteriors and rich melt-in-your-mouth chocolate flavor, they seem like they would be difficult to make at home. But truffles are made with a simple ganache center – which is often just melted chocolate and cream – making them effortless to master.
No Knead Dutch Oven Bread
FIRST, WE BREAK BREAD
Made with four pantry-staples, including flour, salt, yeast, and water, this bread recipe is easy to put together, and is sure to become a staple in your household.
Seared Fish with Lemon Mustard Pan Sauce
This colorful fish recipe uses the cold pan method in a nonstick skillet to achieve a perfectly cooked filet with no guesswork. To make this a one-dish meal, we love the vibrant mix of spring vegetables, cooked until they are lightly charred and perfectly tender. A quick and easy lemon mustard pan sauce elevates this simple recipe to a dish worthy of a special occasion.
Coffee Rubbed Pork Ribs
Spicy, sweet and earthy, these coffee-rubbed pork ribs infuse an earthy richness into succulent baby back ribs. By adding ground coffee to a classic dry rub recipe, the chefs at Little Palm at the Ryder Hotel in Charleston, SC evoke a nuanced depth of flavor with a delectable, caramelized crust. The recipe makes about 3 cups of rub, enough for a few more batches of ribs or save it to season your next pork shoulder, grilled wings, or even burgers. Serve the finished ribs with your favorite barbecue sauce.
Chocolate Cinnamon Skillet Cookie with Toasted Marshmallow
Evoke warm summer nights and bonfires on the beach with this decadent chocolate skillet cookie, flecked with cinnamon and topped with toasted marshmallows. Baked in colorful enameled cast iron, this smores-inspired dessert can feed a crowd in under 30 minutes. With a gooey center and sticky marshmallows, this dessert is better when it’s a little bit messy.
Baked Halibut with Chimichurri and Citrus Vinaigrette
A bright, tangy citrus vinaigrette and herb sauce perfectly complement the flavors of halibut in this deliciously simple and elegant recipe. It comes together quickly making it perfect for a weeknight dinner, but also impressive enough for entertaining guests when served table-side in the Le Creuset Fish Baker. If you’re pressed for time pick up a good quality chimichurri or pesto at the store, or make your own with fresh herbs from the garden.
Chocolate Pound Cake Bread Pudding
Instead of the typical stale bread, Erin Jeanne McDowell uses pound cake as the base of this decadent bread pudding recipe. You can either make her delicious recipe for sour cream pound cake, or use store-bought cake instead. The cake is drowned in chocolate custard, and studded with more melty chocolate and crunchy nuts. Erin especially loves baking this in the Heritage Rectangular Casserole, since the lid keeps things warm (and keeps all that moisture locked inside) until it’s time to serve it.

Apple Upside Down Cake
Inspired by the classic French dessert, Tarte Tatin, this cake recipe from our partner Dan Pelosi (@grossypelosi) has a layer of apples nestled in a rich caramel sauce on the bottom of the pan. Instead of pastry, the caramel apples are topped with an easy one-bowl cake recipe. Bring the warm cake right to the table in the Signature Everyday Pan and flip it onto a plate for an impressive tableside presentation.
