Whether you’re craving something rich and chocolatey or light and fruity, there’s a dessert here for every season and every occasion. Chocolate lovers should start with my favorite airy Dark Chocolate Mousse finished with flaky salt, or a Torta Caprese, the flourless Italian chocolate almond cake. In the fall, an easy Apple Tarte Tatin made with store-bought puff pastry is hard to beat, and in summer, a warm Cherry Crisp or an icy Salted Espresso Granita con Panna hits the spot. And when you want to impress, make Strawberry Balsamic Pavlovas, crisp, marshmallowy meringues piled high with juicy berries.
