Gluten-Free Chocolate Fudge Brownies
The gluten-free recipe is finally here. I know you were on the edge of your seats with my empty promises time and time again. But ta da! Gluten-Free Chocolate Fudge Brownies...
Pesto and veggies
Every once in a while, I like to wake up, look at myself in the mirror, and then cry...
Raspberry Vanilla Bean Cheesecake
Oh, how I want to break out into September songs — you know, something like, “Do you remembaahh the 21st night of Septembaaahh,” or maybe slow it down a touch with September Song by Frank Sinatra. I love them both, and either one has me jumping for freaking joy that ...
Chocolate Glazed Clementine Torte
Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my daaaaaarling ... any guesses what’s front and center in this week’s dessert? Hopefully you know the song, otherwise you are just annoyed that I repeated myself and are wondering who is this darling that I speak of...

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 ...
