J. J.'s Shepherd's Pie
I got this simple recipe 20 years ago from my friend J.J. The secrets to this classic comfort-food are American cheese and creamed corn. I have tried every cheese on earth over the years, and American seems to work the best. Prepare the mashed potatoes to your liking--I season mine with milk, butter, and pepper. My kids and I go crazy for this!
Chef John's Chocolate Lava Cake
This chocolate lava cake recipe is perfect for chocolate cake lovers! Legend has it that the first chocolate lava cake happened because someone took the cakes out of the oven too soon, and the centers were still gooey. There was no time to bake them more, so the chef simply had to call them chocolate "lava" cakes — brilliant!
