these are a favorite in my house during the holidays. i did use almonds because that's what i had on hand. i also omitted the vanilla sugar. i dipped them in melted dark chocolate as in the picture - they turned out perfect!

it was something lovely and different to add to my christmas baked goods. i took other reviewers' advice and poked my shortbread with a chopstick before baking. then i cooled it in the freezer while i made the caramel. i even overcooked the caramel slightly and they still tasted fantastic. i should have mixed the chocolate with half and half because they were really hard to cut without squishing the caramel out the sides. when i make these again i'll be sure to use half and half, and cut them when the chocolate is still a bit soft. even when they don't look as pretty as the picture, they taste FANTASTIC!!

biscotti is hard, and this one walks you through the process quite well. i omitted the nuts and drizzled with melted white chocolate like in the picture. everyone enjoyed them. i didn't quite dry them out enough because they had a softer texture than what i expect from biscotti, and only a few of them crumbled. if you let them cool a bit and use a sharp santoku knife, you get nice even cuts because of the straight edge of the knife. i think serrated knives increase the tendency to crumble

best snickerdoodle recipe ever - everyone said to MAKE SURE i keep it in my file. i used all butter, and they turned out divine. crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside.

The BEST angel food cake EVER!! I followed the recipe exactly, even though I'm not a fan of almond and was hesitant to put it in. I baked it in heart-shaped muffin tins so the baking time was a little less, but they came out beautifully!! I never knew something so guilt-free could taste so decadent!! I will DEFINITELY be making this one again and again and again.

YUM! a new staple in our house. my BF LOVES this salad! I did tweak it a bit. I used sourdough bread for the croutons and drizzled them with olive oil instead of canola. I stuck them in a 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes until browned. I also used reduced-sodium bacon and low-fat mayo in an attempt to reduce the fat content. Otherwise - AWESOME!!!

I did tweak the recipe a bit due to other reviews by using 1/4c white and 1/4c brown sugar, and added fresh chopped ginger in addition to the ground. I was amazed at how wonderful the sauce was!!! I cooked only 6 chicken thighs and the sauce was just enough! I didn't use it all so I had extra to pour over the top just before serving. Wonderful recipe!! Thank you! I'm looking forward to trying it with beef and salmon!

these were very good straight from the oven, but as they sat they gained a sort of grainy texture and they weren't as chocolatey as what i would have liked.. but i'm looking for something that tastes like a boxed brownie. all i can say is that they were good, easy to make (the batter will be very thick) and people seemed to like them in general. heat them up before eating!!
