Hundreds of recipes by Chloe Chen – cookies, cobblers, breads and frozen treats.

Profile:

Chloe Chen's recipes live mostly in the oven and the freezer: cookies made with brown butter, a Southern peach cobbler with fresh fruit, banana bread with a moist crumb, and French toast casseroles that can be assembled the night before. Nearly all of her work sits in Desserts, with the occasional bread, biscuit or savory bake from Mains and Appetizers.

What sets her recipes apart is how much attention goes to the details that decide a bake: ingredient weights, oven temperatures, chilling and resting times, and the visual cues that show when something is ready. Batch sizes are stated up front, whether it is a tray of two dozen dinner rolls or a loaf cut into twelve slices, and many recipes include swaps for common ingredients, such as sugar-free versions of classics.

If you want a dependable recipe for a weekend project, a make-ahead brunch or a quick sweet fix in about 30 minutes, start with her dessert recipes and pick the one that fits your schedule.
