Lila Beaumont
I write dessert recipes that behave, with visual cues and weight measures for repeatable sweetness.
About Me:
I want your cookies to crackle at the edges and stay soft in the center. I spell out butter temperature, dough texture, and chill time so you know exactly when to bake. Because ovens vary, I give timing ranges, pan material notes, and color cues like “edges set; centers slightly glossy.” Ingredients appear in cups and grams, and I include high-altitude or make-ahead directions when they help.
My testing routine is nerdy in the best way—parchment vs. silicone, light vs. dark pans, and side-by-side bakes to measure spread and crumb. I always add storage and freeze-thaw guidance so treats stay fresh through the school week. My tone is warm and clear because dessert should feel doable, not delicate. No pastry school required—just a good spatula and a little patience.
