Mary Berg proves that you don't need to break the bank on fancy gadgets to whip up some delicious and impressive baked goods. Mary uses everyday household items to cut her Classic Cake Donuts before frying on the stovetop and drizzling melted chocolate on top with a DIY Piping Bag. Then, there's no pie plate or rolling pin required for Mary's Chocolate Cherry Galette, and she's got a nifty hack for pitting fresh cherries.
