Cook the Book: 'Pure Dessert'

My favourite dessert is a pear and walnut upside down ginger cake.
Simply delicious with custard or cream.

Cobbler with a cookie dough topping. It's a bit crunchy-it's like a warm sugar cookie. I love to make it with a combo of peaches and raspberries, or blackberries when I get the chance to pick them fresh.

I love making cream puffs. Dressed down, there's a nostalgic sweetness to cream puffs. Dressed up and called a profiterole they become an elegant dessert. There's an art to making the perfect golden brown cream puff.

I like experimenting, and still have a long list of things to try, so I don't go back and make things more than once unless I have a reason to. I think I've made Alton Brown's The Chewy the most, so far.
