$7 • Recently opened Pallet is already creating a buzz with its warm oatmeal shortcake dessert. Pastry chef Jeffrey Stone sandwiches a housemade salted caramel-walnut filling and ganache between oatmeal-walnut shortbread for a seriously scrumptious dessert. Scratch vanilla bean ice cream and a schmear of warm chocolate ganache complete the dish.

Pallet is at 237 S. 400 West, Salt Lake City; 801-935-4431. Open Tuesday to Saturday, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.; Tuesday to Thursday, 5 to 10 p.m.; Friday and Saturday, 5 to 11 p.m.
