Mom's Honey Cake with Apple Confit
Honey cake is traditionally eaten for Rosh HaShanah, the Jewish New Year—the honey’s sweetness symbolizes our wishes for a sweet year. This is my mother's recipe, which she makes in Israel, freezes, and sends to me in the mail.
Dulce de Manzana (Apple Preserves)
Classic New York Egg Cream
Israeli Birthday Cake
Every birthday deserves a great cake. This iconic, cocoa-based, richly iced cake fits the bill.
Chocolate Babka
This babka is so easy, baking it almost feels like cheating. I have a hard time not eating it as it comes out of the oven.
Chocolate Challah
This challah is loaded with chocolate flavor, crusty on the outside and chewy inside.
Turkish Coffee Ice Cream
For me, the best ice cream is coffee ice cream – a perfect balance of bitter and sweet.
