A genoise is a light, airy cake that makes a great sweet hors d'oeuvre. It bakes in the microwave, which is perfect if you're in a pinch. This is actually a kind of sponge cake, which makes it ideal for topping in imaginative ways. For this recipe, you'll cook the batter in a paper coffee cup inside the microwave for 30-45 seconds. Flip the finished cake out of the cup, top and serve.

He says if he were a food he would be an artichoke. "It's tough, difficult to work with, even dangerous at its core; but when you come down to it, it's simple, beautiful and delicious."
