Unlike the delicate French macaron, the coconut macaroon is a rustic, hearty confection defined by its “snowball” appearance and intense chewiness. The magic of this cookie lies in the high moisture content of the coconut and the caramelization of sweetened…
Serving Tiramisu in individual glass cups (verrines) is the ultimate “host hack.” Not only does it eliminate the messy “first slice” problem of a traditional tray, but it also allows for a more delicate, airy cream-to-sponge ratio. These cups look…
