Easy and delicious! I added chopped walnuts too.

Davy Crockett Cookies

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2010

These are an awesome change from the traditional chocolate chip cookie. I'm glad someone went in and fixed the mistakes in the recipe. If you make it just as it is now, you will be fine.

This is the best homemade doughnut recipe that I have had. They are light and chewy like the ones at the famous bakery, though I thought the glaze was way too sweet. I used a bread machine to make the dough, which was a huge plus!

Banana Crepes

Reviewed: Oct. 20, 2009

We've been using this recipe for years now. It is a wonderful way to use up a few bananas that are getting too ripe. We also serve this crepe recipe with fresh strawberries (though we don't cook those).

Salsa Sausage Quiche

Reviewed: May 6, 2009

I made this once as the recipe suggests and then modified it the second time around. Both attempts were great! The second time, I added a little milk to the egg, tossed in a handful of chopped spinach and reduced the cheese to 1.5 cups. A complete meal in a single dish! It took forty minutes from start to finish and was delicious for a quick dinner.

Tres Leches (Milk Cake)

Reviewed: May 6, 2009

My cake turned out great! I have to say that I followed the recommendations of a previous reviewer who said to separate the eggs, mixing the yolks in on time, whipping the egg whites and adding them after the dry ingredients. For some reason, my cake did great with only two-thirds of the milk mixture, so I just tossed the rest out.

Vicki's Hush Puppies

Reviewed: Apr. 28, 2009

These are supposed to be like the sweet, cake-like hush puppies served at some restaurants, like Captain D's. However, while I reduced the sugar to 1/4 cup, we still found them too sweet and I added a couple of tablespoons of milk to make the batter thinner.

Spanish Rice Bake

Reviewed: Jan. 2, 2009

This recipe was too sweet and even after adding additional water, the rice didn't cook all the way. We had to add extra spice to make it edible, and then we did eat most of it. I believe that we followed the recipe exactly and had two sets of eyes to make sure that happened.

Amish Friendship Bread I

Reviewed: Nov. 5, 2008

I thought this was a fine recipe. I'll bet that the previous posters who complained about dry bread, began with a dry starter. Mine had plenty of moisture in it and the bread turned out great! I also sugar coated the bottom of the pan when I baked it.

Curried Coconut Chicken

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2008

I love Curried Chicken, but this recipe was a little bland. The first time I made it, it was too tomato-y and thin, so the second time, I used a little tomato paste in place of the tomatoes and sauce. It helped thicken the sauce and flavor it well. The second time I also added more salt and pepper to the sauce which gave it more flavor. Tossing in some cauliflower rounded the recipe well.

Kettle Corn

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2008

The main problem with this recipe is that salt is not in the ingredients list. I just used a salt shaker to sprinkle a bit on before serving. Also, it takes practice to keep the sugar from burning. I am used to making popcorn by shaking the pot over a burner, but I still had some trouble with burned sugar. Just watch carefully and read the other reviewer's tips for success. My first attempt was still pretty good, not at all gooey as others reported.

Kolaches II

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2008

This was a very easy recipe, but as tasty as the kolaches my mom used to make. I experimented with fillings and decided that this recipe does best with a savory filling. I also tried All Fruit instead of preserves (didn't work out) and cream cheese danish filling (which was delicious).

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies III

Reviewed: Oct. 7, 2008

These were tasty cookies, but I didn't like the cake like texture, also noted by previous reviewers. I made twelve cookies before putting chocolate chips in, and those were much tastier than the cookies that had chips. I might use the recipe again, without the chocolate since they remind me of the chewy cookie texture that this recipe lacks.

Banana Oat Muffins

Reviewed: Aug. 21, 2008

This is my new favorite banana bread recipe. I made one loaf of bread and put the remaining batter into a muffin pan with chocolate chips. Everyone agreed that this is the best banana bread we've ever made. One problem is that the middle did sink in, though it was cooked all the way through. Maybe I'll cook it a little longer next time.

Blueberry Buckle

Reviewed: Aug. 17, 2008

I have been looking for a recipe like this for years. Just the right moist texture, just the right amount of sweetness. Made with some blueberries that were the "second quality" of this year's picking, they tasted delicious in this easy cake. Warning: While I was stirring the batter, I feared that it was too stiff. However after I spread it in the pan and baked it up it was absolutely perfect!

Blackberry Cobbler

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2008

This is the best cobbler I have ever had. My husband is not a blackberry fan but he loved this dish. I cut the pieces almost 1" thick and then only used one stick of butter in the pan and topped it with only 2/3 cup of sugar water. It was rich, tasty and probably a little healthier than the original recipe. We plan to make this again tonight with blueberries instead and again next week for company after we have picked more blackberries.

Delicious! I used the day-old leftovers to make a strata and this bread made it extra tasty.

Brunch Strata

Reviewed: Jun. 23, 2008

This is an excellent, rich dish to make on occasion. I made a few changes- reduced the cream cheese by half and used chopped frozen spinach in place of the other green veggies. It was a huge hit with my husband and three-year-old (both picky eaters) but my one year old wouldn't touch it (though he usually loves eggs!). Will definitely make again.
