Okay, this is odd, but because I’m about to post a ‘name a cupcake’ poll in the reader-run Facebook fan group (give me a couple of minutes, please) I needed a link to the list of Cake in a Cup cupcakes. But, apparently, I hadn’t posted a Cake in a Cup menu yet? Strange. Anyway, […]

One of the hallmarks of the Dowser series books is that Jade is generally baking or test baking cupcakes that reflect her mood. So, naturally, the upcoming novella (Dowser 9.5) that I’m writing for the tenth anniversary of the Dowser Series will feature a brand new celebratory cupcake. Yay! Which means that – before June […]

Holiday Baking 2021
I shared the first of my Advent Calendar posts over on Instagram (FYI for those of you who like to see what treats Michael has found for me this year) (see image below), and I also shared the recipe that appears in Archivist 2, Cream Cheese Cutouts (here on the blog). And since there was […]
Compelling Infinity (Archivist 2) releases in just over a month, but I was fairly certain you needed Len Murphy’s family recipe – Cream Cheese Cutouts – before the holidays (though they are tasty year-round). I’ve included an excerpt below for extra fun. I will add this recipe to the Adept Universe cookbook and put a […]

Chocolate and Fruit Oatmeal Cookies
Apparently, it’s going to be a week of revelations. I baked my go-to Chocolate and Fruit Oatmeal Cookies yesterday, using cranberries, split the batch, added white chocolate (Zephyr 34% Cacao Barry) to one half for Michael and dark chocolate (Tanzanie 75% Cacao Barry) to the other half for me, then posted a photo on my […]
I’m sharing this recipe because I took the time to write it out and have gotten multiple requests. But, again, I’ve only made this a few times (with blueberries, tayberries, and strawberries) and it’s not connected to my actual work (I should be writing right now) so I cannot put extra time and energy into […]

Misfits 1: Envy in a Cup
I’ve added Envy in a Cup to the Adept Universe Cookbook (click the link to download the full PDF) but here is the JPG version for your quick viewing pleasure. Author’s Note: I had a bit of an incident with my first test bake of Envy in a Cup, and the cake came out WAY […]
Just in case you missed it, Misplaced Souls (Misfits of the Adept Universe 1) is now available for preorder and will release on Tuesday, April 14. I’m so excited to share Mory’s first full-length book (she also narrates a novella in Dowser 8.5) and I hope you enjoy the necromancer’s POV! If you’d like to […]
Last, but hopefully not least, I’ve put together nine sets of the Dowser recipe cards for nine lucky bakers. 🙂 Caveat: If you have previously won any recipe cards or own them, please don’t enter this giveaway. I get lots of requests to sell these cards and I’m far too busy (read: lazy) to set […]

Happy Holidays 2018
If you haven’t been following the drama of #windstorm2018 via my Facebook or Twitter feed, the short version is that we are now on day five of a massive power outage and the holidays don’t even remotely resemble our regular traditions – absolutely no baking has been done!! We will attempt to make seafood chowder […]
