Tomato Soup and Grilled Cheese, Updated
The classic pairing of rich grilled cheese sandwiches and bright tomato soup reaches new heights in this menu. The sandwich is the ultimate grilled cheese: melty mozzarella, thick sourdough bread, and a touch of Aleppo pepper for a touch of spiciness; meanwhile tomato soup gets a leg up with bacon for smoky depth, and a luxurious swirl of crème fraîche. A bright salad of raw kale rounds out the meal, and a build-your-own sundae dessert, complete with homemade brownies and chocolate chip cookies, makes a perfect ending.
Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies
Try layering chocolate into the cookie dough for crisp edges and a moist and tender inside.

A version of this brownie recipe accompanied an interview with the actress Katharine Hepburn in the August 1975 issue of The Ladies' Home Journal. Because it calls for the smallest amount of flour, the recipe produces incredibly chewy bars with a full but mellow chocolate flavor. The small amount of flour also means they are easy to adapt to be gluten-free. See the gluten-free version »
