About Lemon Bars

To make the most of this fantastic dessert dish, use fresh squeezed lemons. Slice lemons in half and hold the sections “cut side up” as you squeeze in order to avoid getting seeds with your juice. Makes 6 — 8 servings.

About Rustic Apricot Cherry Galette

A wonderful harvest fruit dessert for any special occasion. When making the pastry, make sure to stop mixing when the butter is pea-sized and try not to warm the dough too much with your hands as you roll it out. Cold dough makes a flakier crust. Makes 6 — 8 servings.
