A combination of brown butter and almond extract amp up the nuttiness of the pistachio, making these the perfect blend of flavors for an after-dinner snack.

While it does take a bit of time to assemble, it's actually pretty straight-forward. Once you start assembling the layers, the tricky part is done—just don’t forget to fill your cake with Lucky Charms before putting the top layer on!

PARKER FEIERBACH 14Checkerboard Cookies
Erik bernsteinThese checkerboard cookies look far more complicated to make than they actually are. Really, they're just a classic vanilla and chocolate sugar cookie, with the two colors being made from the same dough. One gets a little cocoa powder added, the other half some food coloring, and there you have it—a cute way to add some green to your holiday spread.

PARKER FEIERBACHHot pink does not equal a better tasting stalk of rhubarb. (But it is a lot prettier.) You'll want to look for firm, crisp stalks, nothing limp or speckled with a lot of blemishes. If you can't find fresh, use frozen!

19Mince Pies
PHOTO: ERIK BERNSTEIN; FOOD STYLING: FRANCESCA ZANIAsk your average American what a mince pie is, and they’ll likely wonder if you were talking about shepherd’s pie. Ask someone from the UK? They’ll tell you that it’s probably the best type of holiday dessert you can ask for. Though more typically seen around Christmas, we think these would be adorable with little shamrocks cut out!
