I had to bake the crust for about 25 minutes and when I added the filling I had to bake it for 45 minutes. The ends were a little hard though. I never tasted pecan pie but these were great! I only had about 1 cup of the syrup so I used honey for the extra 1/2 cup of syrup needed.

Cranberry Orange Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 20, 2009

Very good cookies! I used a bag of fresh cranberries and pulsed them in the food processer. I baked mine at 375 degrees and baked for 12 minutes not a second longer! For some reason one of the last trays burned at 12 mins. So the very last tray went in for only 11 minutes and came out perfect. I think this cookie needs the glaze it gives it that extra pow! I used the zest from an entire orange in the dough and just squeezed the juice from the orange into the dough mixture, I forgot to save some zest for the icing so I just used about 1 tsp of orange extract.

Chocolate Mint Cookies I

Reviewed: Nov. 22, 2009

These were wonderful and so easy. I only chilled the dough in the freezer for 15 mins and had no trouble at all with the dough. I did as another reviewer suggested and microwaved butter/sugar mixture for a min and then whisked it until all was well blended, also did the same when I added the choc chips. I used the Andes Creme De mint. I got about 5 dozen cookies out of this. i had to wrap them up very tightly and put them in my fridge downstairs to keep from eating at the very least a dozen cookies in a sitting!

Cream Cheese Cookie Cups

Reviewed: Nov. 22, 2009

So easy to make, I used premade cookie dough on my first batch and then on the 2nd go around(believe me there will be a 2nd go around) I used the Betty Crocker Choc Chip Cookie mix. They are fabulous and the presentation is fantastic! I made the choc. chip with the cream cheese filling and I also made some with choc filling. I also did peanut butter with choc filling. I just added some cocoa until I got the chocolately color I wanted. I did add some cool whip to the filling. Will be making these again, thanks for the great recipe!

Bourbon Sausage

Reviewed: Jul. 19, 2009

I made this for my daughter's birthday, it went over well. No one raved about it but everyone did eat it. I subbed Jim Bean for the Bourbon, cooked it beforehand and then put it in a slow cooker to keep it warm. Very easy to make.

Sauteed Apples

Reviewed: Jul. 10, 2009

This was very good. I pretty much followed the recipe, I just added about 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg, also 1 teaspoon of vanilla, and I upped the cinnamon to 1 teaspoon. I think next time I may cut down the butter to 2 Tbl, I'm thinking I won't miss it! Served with vanilla ice cream.

Corn and Black Bean Salad

Reviewed: May 26, 2009

This was really good. I made it the day before I served it, also added red onions and green peppers. I also subbed dried parsely for the cilantro because I didn't have any. I also add cucumbers or whatever is on hand and it always turns out great!

Italian Love Cake

Reviewed: Apr. 13, 2009

This was OK not bad, but not great. If I make this again, I will definitely use a 15 in pan I didn't really get 3 layers, there wasn't enough room in my pan for the cake to do it's thing. Mine looked more like a marble cake.

Coconut Cream Pie I

Reviewed: Apr. 13, 2009

I made this for Easter, a few people thought I had bought it. Everyone who tried it loved it, I didn't try it just don't like coconut, so I'm taking the other's opinion on this one. I used a graham cracker crust, toasted the coconut, and used 2 small packages of the coconut pudding. Will be making this again, thanks for super easy crowd pleasing recipe!

Easter Eggs

Reviewed: Apr. 10, 2009

Everyone who tries these loves these. The peanut butter ones are better than a Reeses Egg! Never tried the coconut just don't like coconut. I made mine small about the size of of walnut, I used a teaspoon to help me make the egg shape. I will be making these every Easter.

Perfect Apple Pie

Reviewed: Apr. 10, 2009

This was my first attempt at baking an apple pie and it was a complete success. It was very easy. Be sure to put a cookie sheet covered with foil under your pie to avoid a mess in your oven and for easy clean up of cookie sheet. I used gala, empire, and granny smith apples.

Tiramisu Bowl

Reviewed: Apr. 7, 2009

I've made this dozens of times, its always a hit. Most of the time I omit the rasberries, makes no differnce on taste, they are there more for presentation. I use the french vanilla cool whip, takes this over the top.

Fruit Pizza

Reviewed: Mar. 28, 2009

This was good, at first I had a little trouble rolling out the cookie dough, but then I sprinkled powdered sugar on my pizza pan and also on top of my dough and it helped with the stickiness. I also had to cook the dough for more like 22 minutes to get the center cooked. Was a hit at my gathering.

Neat Sloppy Joes

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2009

Anything that makes my daughter ask if she can have another portion of something after she takes only a bite or two gets 5 stars! I followed the recipe to a "T" except I did not add the celery, because of my kids. Mt husband ate at least 4 sandwiches. Great recipe, definite keeper.
