LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
More
often than not, I find myself craving desserts. It is terrible, but my sweet tooth is way ahead of me. For me, a meal is simply incomplete without a sugary fix—well lunch and dinner at the very least. I always keep a bag of chocolate chips or a box of bittersweet chocolate squares stashed in one of my kitchen cabinets as back up. But these do not always make the cut; sometimes it takes more than a couple of luscious chocolate squares. It is not to say that chocolate does not do the trick. But sometimes it is not enough on its own, which is why our sweet fixes for this issue both feature chocolate and something more. If you have a crazy craving that needs to be tamed quickly, our Dirty Tiramisu (page#) will do the trick. It is fast, it is simple, and most importantly, it tastes delicious. If instead you are looking for a snack, take your choice from the array of truffles in Truffle Mania (page#). Each of the recipes is enough to share with friends—unless you want a sugar overdose, then you can eat them all yourself. If what you want is an elegant, visually appealing dessert that will impress even the snottiest of taste buds, take a look at Macaroons (page#). Bring some French flair to your next meal and savor each moment of it. So now you know, there is no reason any craving should not be satiated. Flip through the recipes and find something to calm that sweet tooth once and for all-or at least for the day. Bon apetit, Estefania Souza (COM 13) EIC

Trader Joe’s double cream brie with yummy crackers. I might be addicted to brie.
Anything I can drown in maple syrup... I don’t know but it may have something to do with where I’m from.
Cerelac...yeeesss it’s a toddler food...but it’s so deliciously nutritious (but only the wheat one without fruit).
Late night, stress-induced, chocolate chip cookie dough consumption..and yes an entire tube...
Basically anything on Sunset’s menu. I just want to lock myself in my room with a full plate of nachos and yell, “Don’t look at me!
A bowl of Lucky Charms. What can I say, “they’re magically delicious!”.
