Let's begin with what must be the ultimate in retro dessert fare -- the intimidatingly delicious baked Alaska. Ice cream is molded in a bowl, set atop a round layer of cake, then covered in airy meringue. After a final freeze, the whole shebang is put in a hot oven so that the meringue can quickly turn a beautiful golden brown. It may sound like a recipe for a trained pastry chef, but the dozens of reviews from home cooks prove it's totally achievable at home. If you want to make things a little easier, skip making your own cake and use a store-bought cake for the base instead!
