Toasted Pecan Pie
So, I would like to comment on the flood (OK, more a drizzle than a flood) of remarks I got from last week’s rustic cheddar and apple pie...
Strawberry Mocha Trifle
Chocolate, espresso, strawberries and whipped cream. Music to my ears, and some of the most delectable words in the dessert lexicon...
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
November, you really snuck up on me. I love you for oh so many reasons, but none more than the gobble in my wobble this time of year...
Cinnamon Mocha Cake with Mocha Glaze
Well, my coffee dessert from last week was so delicious, I am breaking out another one this week. Please know this isn’t the Dessert Diva patting herself on the back (although I am flexible). This comes directly from you, my Boulder Weekly readers. The sweet ...
Peaches and Cream Butter Cookies
Just when I thought I couldn’t improve on my fantabulous, melt-in-your-mouth butter cookie, I came up with this week’s treat, and, man, if I didn’t blow myself away...
Fresh Raspberry Muffins
And just like that, it’s legal to wear white pants again. Memorial Day has come and gone, and now starts my bevy of freshberry and no-bake desserts. Of course, it is also shorts season, so perhaps I will break out some low-fat, low-sugar, help-the-cellulite-...

Fresh popsicles
It's hot as Hades up in here, and I must say, bring it on! I’m in the air conditioning, of course, but bring it...
Red, White & Blueberry Apple Pie

White Chocolate Popcorn Surprise
Dear almighty weather person, please warm this joint up! Yes, yes, it’s just beautiful. The snow covering the Flatirons is like frosting on a cupcake. The holiday lights twinkling through the cold white stuff is like something out of a fairytale. But what about my ...
