    Introduction

    People everywhere love their sweets. Words commonly associated with dessert — honey, sweetie, sugar, cookie — are regularly used as terms of endearment, and many believe that a meal is not complete without a sweet to finish it off.

    Whether you’re looking for a simple, sweet ending for a family dinner or a knock-their-socks-off extravagant dessert for a special dinner part, you’ve come to the right place. Here are fifty of the best dessert recipes — everything from classics, like chocolate cake and apple pie, to comfort food favorites (baked custard and rice pudding), to impressive scene-stealers, like soufflé and profiteroles.

    There are cakes, cookies, pies, puddings, fruit desserts, and even ice cream — anything you need to satisfy any cravings your sweet tooth may demand. Bring dessert back into your everyday life, and once in a while, eat it first — life is short!

    Carrot Cake

    Get creative with this basic carrot cake recipe. You can replace the raisins with chopped apple or well-drained crushed pineapple. Top it with your favorite cream cheese frosting and more nuts.

    Serves 10

    Ingredients

    3 cups flour

    2 teaspoons baking powder

    2 teaspoons salt

    1 teaspoon baking soda

    Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon into a bowl.

    In another larger bowl, mix together the oil, sugar, and carrots. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

    Gradually beat in the flour mixture, mixing well. Fold in the nuts and raisins.

    Pour into the tube pan and back for 1 hour, or until a knife comes out clean. Let cool on rack.
