Unsurprisingly, the top recipes this month revolved around soup and chili. Like this easy butternut squash soup garnished with apple matchsticks and crispy bacon that, according to one reader, are “worth the extra little effort.” Also: hearty White Chicken Chili, a dish that tastes even better the next day. The list also includes many cookies, like this brown butter chocolate chip one with nutty toffee. Do yourself a favor: Make a double batch and freeze half for cookies anytime a craving strikes. Scroll down for the most-saved recipes in the Epicurious app this month.
