New England Beach Pizza
When I heard New England beach pizza called "America's worst pizza," I knew I had to give it a try. With a thin crust, a very sweet sauce, no toppings but a scant sprinkle of mozzarella and full slices of provolone—well, it does deserve a certain reputation. I admit that it is good in a guilty-pleasure sort of way, and a really fun experiment.
White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake
This white chocolate raspberry cheesecake is excellent and just as delicious as one you would get in a restaurant. Garnish with white chocolate curls if desired. Great for special occasions!
