A few weeks ago I pinned a yummilicious ice cream recipe that inspired today’s brownie batter ice cream. A die-hard Coldstone Creamery fan, cake batter ice cream has my heart, so when I contemplated using brownie mix to flavor homemade ice cream, I’m pretty sure the hallelujah chorus sounded! Did I mention that this ice…
Chocolate Truffle Cake
I agreed to watch Despicable Me 2 in exchange for devouring chocolate truffle cake. BEST. DEAL. EVER. A few years ago, David Lebovitz taught me that the richest, most decadent chocolate cakes are made from the simplest ingredients. Chocolate truffle cake is no exception. This molten chocolate cake isn’t only lush, but it’s now been…
Best Ever Chocolate Cupcakes
Who’d have guessed that the best ever chocolate cupcakes would be vegan? You’ve got to be kidding, right? Wrong.I’m a stickler for chocolate cake that tastes like chocolate.

Truly, Madly, Deeply Chocolate Ice Cream
I love chocolate. I probably dream about it, but unfortunately only wake up with recollections of wacky dreams with absolutely nothing to do with food. Bummer. Anyone else dream of their house falling over sideways after watching CNN’s documentary on the Costa Concordia cruise that went down in Italy? I didn’t think so. Wacky, I…
