My newly teenaged daughter loves chocolate, but she also loves my lemon squares, but I don't make them very often, as they are not a majority favorite in my house. The other day I made these lime bars as a riff on the lemon squares and we both liked them even more.

This is the perfect Monday dessert: made in one bowl and baked in a loaf pan. You can choose to top with powdered sugar. Or whipped cream. Or ice cream. Or berries. Or all of the above. I think it would be completely acceptable to toast it with some peanut butter for a snack – or let's be honest, breakfast. Adapted from a Smitten Kitchen recipe.

Inspired by the cardamom-infused tea and coffee that is popular in Iran and Turkey, this cardamom cake is garnished with a rich coffee cream. Mashed potatoes are baked into the cake to give it a dense and creamy texture. The recipe calls for a combination of fava bean and tapioca flours, in order to make it gluten free, but you can replace those with regular white flour, if desired. The cake is done when the center springs back against your fingers; any longer and the edges will be dry.
Wonderfully fresh and delightful recipes are in Louisa Shafia's latest cookbook, The New Persian Kitchen. Beautiful colors, intense flavors and nutritious ingredients are found in all the dishes.
I recently was in Toronto with a few friends and we stopped into a Starbucks, where I was introduced to these oat fudge bars. I had to make my own and they are pretty close to the real thing – actually, I think they're a tiny bit better (sorry, Starbucks)!
