Bravetart

BraveTart is a celebration of classic American desserts. From down-home delights like Blueberry Muffins and Glossy Fudge Brownies to supermarket mainstays such as Vanilla Wafers and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream, these meticulously tested recipes bring a renowned pastry chef’s expertise into your home kitchen. Describing myths, origins, and (often surprising) transformations, each recipe is both deliciously easy to follow and placed within it's historical context alongside vintage advertisements. From chocolate chip cookies that predate the Tollhouse Inn to prohibition-era ice cream sodas and floats, Bravetart is a beautiful assortment of nostalgic bakes. Photography by Penny De Los Santos.
