Cream Cheese Brownies
June 18, 2014
There are many kinds of brownies on the face of this planet, but make no mistake about it, one of my favorites is these Cream Cheese Brownies!
They’re a perfect mix of dense, fudge-like brownies with the goodness of cream cheese. A single bite and your palate is off to experience the tanginess of the cream cheese. It deliciously tempers the deep richness of the chocolate brownie. I could not imagine a better way to enjoy both a brownie and cheesecake at the same time.

All Hail Mighty Cheesecake
August 9, 2012
Cheesecake, oh I just swallowed my saliva right there. You are the ultimate culprit behind the smiles painted on our faces--especially on mine, most of the time. I swear by this cake, and I crave it even when I have it in my mouth.
Cheesecake is perfect with coffee in the morning, with an orange juice for lunch, and hot milk before going to bed. But if you cannot get enough of it like yours truly, you can still sneak in a few bites during snack time.
Cheesecake also has that magical taste that comforts longing hearts and tired bodies. Seriously, I may sound animated and overboard, but I dare you to try one for yourself and I would sashay away saying I told you so.

Cheese & Chocolate Tunnel Cake
July 18, 2012
I've always been intrigued with the idea of chocolate and cheese pairing. And actually, I'm a huge fan of it. A lot of people out there claim that it's much harder to get right than, say, pairing cheese with fruit, and a lot of time it turns out to be plain nasty. However, when you do get it right, it can be sensational. It happens to be a scrumptious way to end a long day, or just when you feel like having two of the greatest foods humans ever created.
Chocolate and cheese are two uber rich foods, and it follows that a little can go a long way. Try this recipe and savor all the goodness in this pairing.

Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Brownies

I love baking brownies on a cold, blustery day like today. I love smelling the chocolate cooking in the oven; the way the brownies steam when I cut them in the pan; and the way the vanilla ice cream melts after I drop a scoop on the top. Ah!
The complete experience should be shared with a loved one.

Black Bottom Cupcakes
November 10, 2010
Black Bottom cupcakes are chocolate cupcakes with a cream cheese center. This cupcake is super dense, rich, and moist.
I like this recipe because of the added chocolate chips, only I prefer the mini-chocolate chip size. The texture is great, too. I could eat these everyday – yikes!
