Luscious Lemon Bars
WOW THESE ARE GOOD!!! After reading the reviews, I made the following changes: First you need to double the recipe, because they really are thin and if you need them to be a bit thicker, then do the recipe 3 times for a thick batch. I used Stop & Shop Cooking Spray with Flour, I covered the baking dish with this and I had NO PROBLEM getting the bars out of the dish. Also even though I doubled the recipe I used 1 & 1/2 sticks of butter I did not put in the flour a little at a time, I just dumped the entire amount in, I have a Kitchen Aid mixer, worked great. I also baked the bottom for 17 minutes. Inside of all white sugar, I used 1/2 white & 1/2 dark brown sugar, 5 table spoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. I baked this for 35 minutes, it needed it. I dusted with confectioner's sugar right away, I waited until the bars were cool before cutting. I sprayed my knife with the cooking spray, however the I did not need it as the bars came right out with a fuss or mess. I also cut my bars small as this is a rich tasting bar and I found myself eating and eating them, YUM :)

Southern Peach Cobbler
I made this for the first time and it came out awesome! However, after reading the reviews before I made this, I made the following changes: Skipped white sugar & replaced it with dark brown sugar - (total of 2 cups). Also note, anywhere the recipe called for white sugar, I used dark brown sugar. The liquid issue some were having, I used 8 tablespoons of cornstarch - (no extra liquid here). Butter I used 1 whole stick of salted butter & I did not add any salt since the butter already had it. Peaches - I used 9 and cut them small not thin, it was just right. Cinnamon - I doubled it. The only thing I would do differently next time is add more butter to the topping as I thought it needed a bit more flavor. GREAT RECIPE, THANKS FOR SHARING!!
