Desserts recipes Page 4

Cookies, bars, cakes, muffins, ice cream and fruit desserts, from 15-minute treats to bakes that need an afternoon. Chewy cookies such as lemon oatmeal sugar cookies, peanut butter blossoms and pumpkin chocolate chip bars sit alongside cakes and bars like caramel apple cheesecake bars, chocolate sheet cake and Biscoff cheesecake.

Zucchini bread and muffins, peach cobbler and homemade ice cream, including a dark chocolate version and a quick high protein one, round out the range. Several recipes are gluten-free, and many follow the calendar, with Christmas cookies, pink Valentine's treats and an Easter cake. To choose, check the time and yield first: sheet cakes and cookie batches feed a crowd, while the quick desserts suit a weeknight.

Bars and no-churn ice creams are the easiest places to start.
