Lisette’s Pear Torte
This recipe was first published in 1983, Marian Burros’s plum torte (which my cousin Lisette changed to Pear) has become one of the most popular recipes in the history of The Times, and it’s no mystery why. There are so many things to love: It’s easy, it’s practically no-fail and it’s endlessly adaptable.

This Jamaican Pound Cake is an old recipe I found in my mother-in-law's cupboard. It's made from a boxed pound cake mix with the addition of rum, bananas, sour cream and almonds. It's super simple and so good!

Cranberry Upside-Down Cake
You've got to try this Cranberry Upside-Down Cake. It's simple and deliciously tangy. Great for the holidays or any time of the year. I pairs well with sweetened whipped cream. The topping is made by simply baking cranberries placed in a layer over sugar and spices at the bottom of the pan. As the cake bakes, the sugar caramelizes, forming a rich syrup.

Gingerbread Cake
Not being much of a baker, I get very excited when I stumble upon a new and easy - even I can make it - recipe. This Gingerbread Cake is delicious and the lemony whipped cream is TOO DIE FOR! You could use this whipped cream on berries or anything really. This is a must try!

Cider and Five-Spice Bundt Cake with Smoked Salted Caramel Sauce
This seasonal Cider and 5 Spice Bundt Cake is light and refreshingly subtle in its Christmas-y flavors; a perfect end to a heavy holiday meal. A natural ginger spiciness is laced throughout this fluffy and moist cake, cutting the sweetness of molasses. It is, however, the salted caramel sauce drizzled on top that brings this light and airy cake to life.
