If you like chocolate-covered cherries, have I got a brownie recipe for you. Even if you're not a huge fan of the candy, check out these dark chocolate cherry brownie bites, because they are simply divine.

The recipe is from Virtually Homemade, and the bite-sized brownies are as cute as they are delicious. I'm loving a pretty box of them for end-of-the-year teacher gifts and picnics. The base is a dark, rich brownie, then dried cherries add just a little tartness that kicks them up a delicious notch. Bottom line: Yum.

I'd eat two wooden coasters smashed together with marshmallow cream, but this recipe for chocolate chip cookie whoopie pies sounds a lot more appetizing. Warm, soft cookies and gooey marshmallow filling? What's not to love.

You know what we don't see enough of? Cherry vanilla cupcakes. Seems like flavors such as chocolate, plain vanilla, and coconut dominate the cupcake world -- that is not okay! Cherry vanilla anything is amazing, so why aren't we seeing more of this scrumptious flavor in our cupcakes?

This recipe is isn't hard to whip up; you won't break the bank buying the ingredients, and come on, it's cherry vanilla cupcakes! What's not to love?!

When it comes to dessert, I say go hard or go home. If you're going to indulge, then really indulge, or don't bother. These homemade fried Oreos are the perfect hard-hitting indulgence. 

Often found at state fairs, there's no need to wait for one to get your fix. The sinfully delicious treats are actually much easier to make than they look. This recipe from Kirbie Craving is simple to follow and comes out great every time. You don't even need a deep-fryer,  just a pan that will hold about an inch of oil is fine. They're great to make for parties, but beware -- they disappear as fast as you can make them.

Ever feel in the mood for brownies -- but don't want to bake a whole batch, or use the oven? Well hooray for you, there's a recipe for that. You can make a single-serving of brownies using your microwave. Brownie in a cup, anyone? Just mix and nuke, and eat it right out of the mug you cooked it in. Just like that chocolate chip cookie in a cup recipe. No messy bowls to clean up, either. I mean, this recipe is practically cheating, it's so easy.

Now that we've officially entered the time of year when backyard cookouts and picnics are practically a weekly thing, most of us are always on the lookout for something fun and delicious to bring to share with our family and friends.

And that's why I was so thrilled when I came across this strawberry shortcake cupcakes recipe from Food & Wine. Yes -- strawberry shortcake cupcakes, which has to be one of the greatest twists ever on the classic dessert we all remember devouring every summer as kids. (And as adults too. Busted.)

When it comes time to get a cake for a birthday, party, family get-together, or just for fun, sometimes it's easier to pick one up from the supermarket or a local bakery. But what if you could be reassured that you'd be able to make one just as good -- no, better -- with an amazing, delicious recipe?

This is the cake recipe, which the popular NYC bakery, Amy's Bread, uses for their "Pink Cake," a delicate vanilla butter cake paired with heavy, super-sweet buttercream frosting. Uh, yeah. Wow. Who even needs a special occasion as an excuse to try their hand at this one?

As temperatures heat up, cooler desserts are what we all crave. That means ice cream, and lots of it. This easy ice cream cake is a great way to serve it up.

From Virtually Homemade, it's gorgeous and flavorful when topped with a delicious raspberry sauce. But there's a secret -- you start with regular old ice cream sandwiches you buy at the grocery store, so it couldn't be any easier. I know people often say that, but in this case, it's true. Layered with the raspberry sauce (or a sauce of your choosing) and a homemade creamy filling, they all come together to make one delicious and impressive dessert in a snap.
