My Great Aunt Wini was known for her chocolate desserts—so much so that her wedding gift to my mom was a collection of recipe cards. If there was a bundt cake being baked in my house growing up, you can bet it was Wini’s chocolate version. Chocolate frosting for a cake, or chocolate sauce for ice cream? Wini’s. And of course, if we wanted chocolate mousse, the ingredients for this easy recipe I’m sharing with you went straight into the blender.

Perhaps more than any other form of cooking, baking is a science in which accuracy is key, and any rogue variable can lead to disastrous results. The humidity of the air, the heat flow of your oven, and even the temperature of your eggs can have a huge effect on baked goods, and can even mean the difference between a treat that is incredible and inedible. If you're a regular home baker, you may have already picked up on a few tips to make your recipes more precise, like weighing out your ingredients instead of using liquid measurements, and properly adjusting your oven temperature. Another way to ensure you get the best results from your baking is to place your creations on the correct oven rack.

Shrimp were made to be grilled. The shellfish are incredibly fast-cooking, making them ideal for high-heat searing. Plus, the grill's smoky flavor and kiss of char work wonders on their flavor and texture. Shrimp have a mild oceanic sweetness that functions as a marvelous blank canvas, so you'll want to use a potent marinade, like simple, lemony salmoriglio (which is also great with steak), to bring some pizzazz to the dish. To help you get the most from your marination, Chowhound asked Jonathan Bautista, executive chef of Ember & Rye restaurant at the Park Hyatt Aviara in Carlsbad, California, for his advice on grilling shrimp.

Donuts are a breakfast staple. Served in early office meetings, at the Sunday morning table, or picked up on one's morning coffee run, there is no escaping the pastry's breakfast associations.

So then, how, exactly, did donuts become a breakfast staple?

When you and your kids are sitting under the golden arches at the local McDonald's Playland, just know this: You're one of the reasons that America's favorite fast food chain can brag that it has sold more than a billion hamburgers. Yes, that's a billion with a "B." And it's very likely that the famous worldwide burger joint has sold many more burgers than that, given that a) McDonald's sold about 75 burgers a second globally in 2021 (per Investing.com) and b) there are 86,400 seconds in a day. To figure out how that per-second number was reached, you have to do a bit of math. Investing.com reported that Mickey D's sells 6.48 million burgers per day. To get the per-second count, you have to divide 6.48 million by 86,400 seconds to get 75 burgers a second.

Here's How Many Hamburgers Mcdonald's Sells In One Second
