Join Chris Morocco in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as he makes chocolate chip cookies. The addition of browned butter really puts these cookies over the top, making them crispy-edged and chewy-centered while still rooted in classic cookie flavor. Oh, and no mixer required—so there’s no excuse not to make them.
Bon Appétit joins Chef Miro Uskokovic, owner of NYC’s Hani’s Bakery to make their best-selling malted cinnamon bun. Hani’s is a modern American-style bakery that has become very popular with locals, often with queues down the block. Light, fluffy, and airy with a gooey cream cheese glaze, it’s no surprise these cinnamon buns sell out fast daily.
Join Rick Martinez in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as he makes tie-dye swirl holiday cookies. The butter cookie that acts as your canvas is extremely simple to make (like, six ingredients simple), so you can spend most of your time on the fun part: unleashing your inner artiste. When you’re decorating, no need to panic if your first attempts don’t work out. Simply wipe off the failed glaze, let the cookie dry for about five minutes, and try again.

Join Claire Saffitz in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she attempts to make gourmet Thin Mints, Samoas and Tagalongs. That's right, Claire's making Girl Scout Cookies.

But it wasn't until 1951 that the Thin Mint, the cookie most synonymous with the Girl Scouts, was introduced and swept the country like a tidal wave. And now here we are, in the Test Kitchen, watching Claire make them herself.

Cake made with applesauce is good. Cake made with apple butter—which is basically just super-concentrated applesauce—is so, so much better. Moist and tender, with huge apple-y flavor, this simple spice cake is the ultimate bring-to-your-friend's-house baked good. If you really want your mind blown, serve the slices topped with more apple butter, a dollop of yogurt, and a dusting of cinnamon sugar.
Join Samantha Seneviratne in her home kitchen as she makes an almond gingerbread fruitcake (that actually tastes good). This adaptation of an often maligned Christmas staple will change your mind about fruitcake forever. Samantha folds in some rum-soaked fruit, which is a big plus in our book. And in the spirit of giving, Samantha sends a fruitcake to Chris Morrocco because fruitcake is best when shared!
