Baker's Recovery

This pint-sized Murray Hill dessert shop is run by owner Jenn, who keeps the counters stocked with a rotating lineup of inventive, playful confections. While the signature brownies—revered by regulars for being rich and moist without being overly sweet—are the anchor here, the menu frequently shifts to introduce novel creations like the taco-shaped Pretzel Marshmallow 'Tookie', Banana Chocolate Chip Cupels, and specialized cheesecake truffles. Dietary options are well-covered with a selection of gluten-free and vegan treats. The space itself is intimate, offering just a handful of stools at a window bar where you can settle in with a pastry and a hot cup of coffee.
