About this Cook
I've been cooking since I've been married which is since 1989. I LOVE TO TRY NEW RECIPES! I also love to entertain and feed people. Family and friends always leave my home full and happy! I have two teenaged girls and a Yorkie. For more of my recipe creations go to...http://www.grouprecipes.com/people/lilliancooks
My favorite things to cook
I tend to go for Italian, Mexican or American recipes. Someday I will try Asian recipes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I'm Italian so I make the basics (always from scratch) like meatballs, manicotti, picatta, alfredo, etc.
My cooking triumphs
OH! Way too many to list of course!
My cooking tragedies
OH! Way to many of these also!

Dawn's Candied Walnuts
These are very good! They have a nice sweet cinnamon flavor! They took a lot longer than 10 minutes to roast but everything else was perfect! I'll be serving these to my guests on Father's Day...if I can stop eating them!

Pepper Jelly Appetizer
This was very good! I love the combination of flavors...hot and spicy with salty and sweet! And I love the creamy and crunchy textures also! I used a cranberry hot pepper jelly. The only thing I would do different next time is to use equal amounts of cream cheese and jelly. And I would probably warm this up in the microwave before serving. I will definitely be making this for my next party!

Extreme Chocolate Cake
This is a very good chocolate cake recipe! I added 1 cup of mashed bananas and I reduced the boiling water to 1/2 cup. I baked it in a 9x13" baking dish and added a crumb topping! I served this on Mother's Day and everyone loved it! It was moist and rich but not too sweet! Perfect! This will be my "go to" recipe for chocolate cakes!
