Anyone have any fool-proof/ go to recipes they swear by?

My wife was/is an avid baker and her cookies literally the best I've ever had... better than double tree cookies.

Everything she's made was either directly from Sally's Baking Addiction or slightly modified (adding more chocolate chips to cookies, adjusting for humidity, etc.).

Honorable Mention: the Dark Chocolate Mousse Cake is one of the only cakes I've ever personally made, and it is also my favorite cake. I've made it twice because it was so damn good.

Good luck on keeping the weight off though, my wife had to stop baking because it's too tasty/tempting.

This Cheesecake Factory cheesecake always impresses. People think cheesecake is really hard to make but this one turns out perfect, no cracks, just don’t skip the water bath. I leave off the topping though.

For the cooler months, I love this mushroom and leek bread pudding!

It’s savory, rich, and absolutely delectable. The measurements are all adjustable to your own taste - if you like more leek, extra onion, some crumbled bacon, or a special wild mushroom, it easily accommodates! Just make sure you get the ratio on the custard (egg and cream mixture) correct so that it sets properly, and beyond that it is foolproof - any aromatics you care to add, any type of cheese you like, it’s fantastic. 😊

I’ve also impressed my mother-in-law and husband many a time with steamed mussels. Such a simple dinner, comes together in less than 30 mins, and so comforting while also being somewhat light - serve these with white wine and a good baguette, and you are golden. 🥰

Anything from Modern Proper has been excellent - easy to follow, gourmet yet approachable, never had anything go wrong from them!

I'm 38M and I designed my own Thai coconut peanut sauce that literally makes any decent dish into am absolute stunner. It's so amazing that I eat it every day and always have enough to feed 10 people in my fridge at all times. I'm pretty proud of myself because I came up with it on my first try while reading the ingredients on a Whole Foods bottle. I'll post it if anyone is interested.

Amazing with any kind of meat, rice, potatoes, quinoa, yams, beans, vegetables, nuts... Everything.

I love the Rosemary loaf cake from Nigella Lawson, people are always surprised by it!

Full text: I love baking but i don’t do it often because I have enough issues maintaining my weight as is 😂.

My go-to impress recipe is Bon Appetit’s best chocolate chip cookie recipe. It’s made with browned butter and topped with sea salt and they are so good. I made them for a man I’m seeing to take to work and I’m told I’m known as the ‘woman who made the amazing cookies’. 🥰 he’s brought it up 5 times since I’ve made them so I think he was genuinely happy with them.

I’d love more crowed-pleasing recipes any has as a go-to to impress.

This pie recipe from bon appetit is an absolute dream!

Made this zucchini-banana bread yesterday and its delicious, added chocolate chips instead of nuts. (makes 2 loaves)

Also got into making our own bread recently, and now we're addicted :P

And this pie if you have access to rhubarb! I just buy the Pilsbury pie crust, it's excellent

I always make ratatouille when I want to impress. It’s fool proof in that it’s basically just a bunch of veggies roasting with tomato sauce so it’s hard to screw up unless you leave it in the oven for too long! Just slice the veggies with a mandolin and arrange in a circle in a le cruesuet or similar and it will look stunning and taste amazing for how simple it is. Goes great with home made bread to eat it with or over some pasta or on the side with some fish.

I don't bake unless I can give it away. I do enjoy it. But I really shine when it comes to dinner. I have a ton of receipts and depending on the season too.

My go to when I have no idea for dinner, it's spaghetti. I know, so simple however it has never failed, even with picky eaters.

Diced onion, mushroom, ground beef (salt/ pepper/ garlic to taste) (onion/ mushroom is optional)

Not optional, must be made in a cast iron pan, add a splash of sherry wine after the beef is done cooking, add stewed tomatoes and tomato sauce, fresh chopped basil.

The cast iron is key. I made it in a non stick once and it was so bland I thought I had covid 🤣
