Chicken Noodle Casserole I
This was only OK - I only changed it by adding half a bag of frozen mixed veggies to get some veggies in there. It was convenient in that I made it early in the day and just put it in the oven when I got home later that night. But it was pretty bland, so overall, meh. Won't make again.

Chocolate Truffle Cookies with Sea Salt
These are so rich and chocolatey! You REALLY have to like chocolate for these. They're amazing warm and gooey from the oven, and the sea salt sprinkled on top is absolute perfection (I am on a sea salt kick right now anyway...). Found that these were pretty much perfect at 350 degrees in a gas oven for 8 minutes, although the bottoms sometimes got stuck to the pan due to a chocolate chip that got stuck. No one can tell from looking at the top, though. Only negative here - SO VERY RICH one is almost too much, and these definitely won't travel well (was hoping to add to my Christmas cookie shipments to friends and family out of state).

Almond Crusted Chevre and Grape Truffles
These are quite tasty little balls of yum. However, they are vastly impractical, leading to my poor rating. I think I paid around $12-13 for all the ingredients for this recipe (and omitted the port because I am not buying a whole bottle for 2 tbsp), and only got 11 little truffles. Not to mention they are labor intensive and messy! I do like other reviewers ideas of making this into a cheese ball, however. And this is just an opinion - not to offend the foodies - but I really think this might be just as tasty with plain cream cheese. If you really want to try this one out, skip the $20/lb chevre and go for the Philly.
