It was just four years ago when Stella Maeve hit the independent screen in the flick "The Runaways" which she starred opposite Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart. She then continued making her name known in television favorites like "Gossip Girl" as Emma and "House" as Kenzie. Now, her new crime show "Golden Boy" (CBS) is surely one to watch, in which she stars as Agnes Clark - Theo James' on-screen younger sister.

Today, this auburn-haired sweetheart shares her own recipe with Zooey readers! And of course, we have to bake in style.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 pounds of trimmed Brussels sprouts diced in half 3 tablespoons truffle oil or olive oil 1 teaspoon truffle salt or regular salt 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 2. Toss halved Brussels sprouts with oil salt and pepper. 3. Place on a baking sheet sliced side down. Reduce heat when necessary to prevent burning/shake pan throughout to make sure Brussels sprouts are evenly cooked throughout. Brussels sprouts should be browned over the top when done. 4. For a spicy flavor, add some of my dads home made hand picked peppers (he grew in his garden) spice rub called Uncle GA's Spice Rub. It's so delicious! I sprinkle some on top of the Brussels once in the baking pan or you can also add while mixing the Brussels with the truffle oil in the bowl before spreading on pan.
