If Ben Franklin could be persuaded to amend his own words from the afterlife, he might say that dessert is also proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. Though everybody has their own idea of what qualifies as dessert, sweet foods are an essential part of the everyday taste experience. Their relatively minor role in the nutritional pyramid belies their powerful ability to bring a sense of instant gratification, signified by an ebullient smile. Perhaps this reaction is more complex than it seems. Perhaps dessert reminds us of home, of everything that’s good, of times spent with mothers and fathers, grandmothers and grandfathers, over a freshly baked pie or some chocolate chip cookies and milk.

In this free video series, our expert will show you how to make Baked Alaska. This fun and creative dessert is easy and delicious. Get step-by-step instructions for cutting the cake in the proper shape, freezing the ice cream mold and making homemade meringue. You will also get tips for spreading the meringue on the ice cream and baking your aptly named Baked Alaska. If you are looking for something different for dessert tonight, let our expert teach you how to make this tasty Baked Alaska recipe.
