Observing the Torah is Not Only a Ticket to Gan Eden.
How could we survive the struggles of life without it? It’s no news to any of us that the essence of Shavuos is infinitely more profound than elaborate tablescapes and delectable dairy goodies (though making the Yom Tov as pleasant and joyous as possible is important too). So we know that it’s the day on…
The 9×13 Life: Decadent Dairy Cookie Bars (The Easiest Thing You’ll Make for Shavuos)
There’s so many complicated desserts to make for Shavuos. Let this be the easy one. And perhaps the most delicious too. When a cousin calls to tell me that they have a new 9×13 recipe, I say “Yes!” right away. I don’t care if it’s chicken, a side dish, or a cookie. But when the…

Sometimes you want simply the best version of the classics. These chocolate cheese muffins are one of those. Back in the days before we had all the kosher food magazines, my cousin Esti first made these muffins for a simcha.
