My all time favorite dessert is Creme de Menthe Mint Brownies. In my previous life, I would make brownies from a box mix, cover it with a layer of creamy mint goodness and then top with an easy chocolate ganache. We would put them in the freezer to save and…
Have you ever had one of those desserts that you just simply can’t wait to dive into? That’s what Sex in a Pan is! Every layer makes your mouth water and as you add more and more layers the anticipation mounts. Have you ever seen a more decadent dessert that was…
A few days ago I made these amazing Orange Zest Scones for my 30 Day Challenge. They are so soft and delicious. But there’s one problem. And it’s a big one. They aren’t gluten free! I kept watching my husband eat these amazing Orange Zest Scones day after day. Until…
I did it! I finally did it! I have made countless cupcakes and always came up short. I was beginning to think that it wasn’t possible to make a gluten free cake that was light and airy and moist. Sure, it’s easy to make a cake that’s dense or dry. I…

Hands down, brownies are my favorite dessert. It’s funny because when I was a kid I didn’t like chocolate. I even cried once when my hot fudge sundae turned out to have chocolate on top of my ice cream. Now that I have kids of my own, I find that…
My step dad has been trying to get me to make granola. It seems that every time I go to visit him he is making granola and tries to share the recipe with me. I always refused. Until now. Granola always sounded too time consuming to make. I have…
I’m so excited by my bake for Day 6 of my 30 Day Challenge. In my college years, I used to bring home a box of frozen cream puffs from BJ’s (you know, the jumbo box) then I’d eat 1 or 2 each day. I didn’t even wait for them…
I am on Day 5 of my 30 Day Challenge. It is Apple Pie day! No, it isn’t March 14 (3/14, get it?), just a good day for pie! Seems fitting to make the most American food on the day of the Super Bowl – the largest American sporting event….
