This cinnamon roll recipe starts with an easy dough made in your bread machine, and the rolls take just 15 minutes to bake in your oven. With a sweet cinnamon, sugar, and pecan filling and a decadent cream cheese frosting, they taste just like the ones sold at that well-known store in the mall.

Chef John's Tomato Tart
This tomato tart has a crispy puff pastry layer topped with sliced sweet summer tomatoes. It tastes amazing! One of these days Michele and I will travel to the south of France, where we'll eat this savory tart at least once a day. It's going to be hot, since we'll have to go in the middle of summer to enjoy best possible tomatoes, but that's fine, as long as there's chilled rosé.
