They say that the plum torte is the most requested NYT recipe of all time.

It's extremely easy and the most delicious dessert I've ever made. I'd make it with plums the first time you make it, but I've made it with many different fruits -- frozen berries, thinly sliced apples, frozen cherries, etc. https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/3783-original-plum-torte?unlocked_article_code=1.H08._xOT.q-3b3fmzcoBu&smid=share-url

PP here. I'll add that you might look at the batter when you put it in the pan and think "I did something wrong, that is not enough." It is enough, you did it right.

If you're not a great cook, I would click on the section marked Easy and pull out ones that have 5 stars that look tasty to you. Then read the comment section, many of the commenters will say if and how the recipe might need to be adjusted or improved. Once you get good at the "easy" ones, move on to the others.

+1 I do this, and every single recipe has turned out. The comments are spot on every time. I deeply trust the readership of NYT Cooking!

My family didn’t care for it either.

I want toe Ho how helpful it is to read the comments. Those that aren’t helpful often are unintentionally hilarious.
