Our Best French Baked Goods

15. Cherry Clafoutis 

Years ago, when this recipe was first made, the cherry pits were left in the dish, giving an almond-like flavor when baked. For our variation, we replaced the pits with almond extract.

16. Langues de Chat 

These piped cookies are delicious on their own. Dip them in Mint Chocolate Ganache, add a sprinkle of raw sugar, and we dare you to eat just one.

17. Caramelized Lemon and Browned Butter Financiers 

The caramelized lemons and browned butter add a deep complexity to these buttery mini cakes.

18. Chocolate Éclairs 

These elegant Éclairs are easier to make than they might look. And you can bake the pâte à choux and freeze it for up to 2 weeks before filling.
