Oatmeal Craisin Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2011

These were absolutely amazing! This was my first attempt at oatmeal cookies and they turned out great. I followed the recipe except I did add white chocolate chips. They would have been amazing even without the chocolate chips. Great recipe! Definitely adding this to my cookie recipe rotation. :)

Mini Pumpkin Whoopie Pies

Reviewed: Nov. 28, 2011

These were delicious, but the filling was WAY TOO sweet! Also, there was a lot of frosting left. So if I make this again, I will cut back on the amount of filling as well as how much sugar I use. The cookies themselves were delicious!

Fluffy Cake Doughnuts

Reviewed: Oct. 2, 2011

i didn't care for this recipe. It was simple, but there was no real flavor to it. I think I'll look for another baked doughnut recipe.

Sweetheart Cookies

Reviewed: Aug. 4, 2011

These didn't turn out the way i expected them to. They weren't horrible, but they weren't great either. The edges were nice and lightly brown so I pulled them out of the oven and they were still soft inside so I let them sit in the oven a little longer. There was something about the taste that was off. I think I'm going to try it one more time before I completely say 'yay' or 'nay' on this one.

Best Brownies

Reviewed: Aug. 4, 2011

I used less sugar (maybe about 1/8 less) to minimize the sweetness and it was still very delicious. I'm not quite sure this is THE brownie recipe for me personally, but it was a hit with my co-workers.

Vanilla - Chocolate Powdered Sugar Frosting

Reviewed: Jul. 25, 2011

This recipe was very easy to make. It was a bit sweet so I may take the advice of another reviewer and add more cocoa powder to cut the sweetness a little. I did notice that the recipe calls out the serving size is 48, but i was only able to frost 12 cupcakes (barely) with this recipe. I didn't go crazy on the frosting either. I did pipe the frosting but this should have covered at least 2 dozen but it didn't.

Banana Muffins with Chocolate Chips

Reviewed: Jun. 16, 2011

I'm not a big fan of banana bread, but I had to do something with all of my bananas. I followed the directions exactly and the bread came out perfectly. Nice and moist. This recipe is definitely a keeper.

Churros II

Reviewed: May 9, 2011

I made these twice because the first time, the churros did not come out right after i fried them. The second time I did a few things different. I made sure to remove the ball of dough into a mixing bowl before I added the eggs. Also, instead of frying them, I maked them at 350 degrees for about 12 minutes each. They came out nice and fluffy. The taste was good, but I couldn't give it a five star since it wasn't 'to die for'. But overall still a very tasty recipe.

Microwave Lemon Curd

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2011

This recipe was extremely easy. I used the lemon curd to pipe into cupcakes that i made with lemon frosting. Everyone loved the tartness of the lemon curd with the sweetness of the cupcakes. :)

Apple Strudel Muffins

Reviewed: Apr. 1, 2011

This was the first time I've ever made apple muffins and they were absolutely amazing. I followed other reviewers tip on doubling the amount of apples and using chopped and shredded. I did add some cinnamon. I will definitely be making this recipe again!

Quick and Easy Chicken Noodle Soup

Reviewed: Mar. 15, 2011

I have to start off by saying that I am not a fan of chicken noodle soup, but my boyfriend on the other hand LOVES it. So when he was sick a few weeks ago I thought I'd be the loving girlfriend and make him chicken noodle soup that's not from a can. This recipe was so easy and delicious that even I had some. I made this soup again last night since the bf has been begging me to make this again. This recipe is definitely a keeper and I will continue making this for a long time! Thanks for the great recipe Maryvm!

Spicy Chicken Lettuce Wrap

Reviewed: Feb. 3, 2011

I made very small modifications to the recipe, but I have to say that this recipe was absolutely AMAZING! Instead of ground meat, I used chicken and chopped them up into small cubes. I omitted the pickled ginger and used regular distilled vinegar because I didn't want to buy rice wine. I included about a 1/4 cup of sweet and spicy chili sauce and reduce the amount of sesame oil to 1 teaspoon. I served this up with warm rice and lettuce and I can assure you that I will be making this recipe many more times! Delicious!

Simple White Cake

Reviewed: Jan. 26, 2011

Although this recipe was pretty good, I would have to agree with another user who said that it tastes like sugar cookies. On it's own I think the cake is delicious, but with frosting it didn't taste qutie right. As other users commented I too added a little more milk.

Mongolian Beef I

Reviewed: Jan. 10, 2011

I thought this was a good recipe, but I will make some changes to it next time. I did take some of the reviewers tip on either doubling or tripling the sauce which I doubled. Next time I will omit the cornstarch in which the meat is marinated it. It made the beef too creamy for my taste.

S'mores Bars

Reviewed: Oct. 21, 2010

I'm not what went wrong, but the graham crackers came out soggy. It ended up being a complete mess and I had to throw it out. I would like to think i'm a pretty good baker, but this one is definitely a baking tragedy for me.
