Skillet Beef and Macaroni
My husband adored it, I cooked it as it was, except that I added some minced garlic and when it was done, I sprinkled shredded cheddar on top and let it melt slightly. As a recipe for those days in which you want to please you husband, but don't really feel like cooking, it can't be beat.

Danish Pastry Apple Bars
Excellent!. My husband, the apple pie snob, raved about it and I'm having a hard time not having a second piece. I used only 7 apples, because that's all I had and I kept the sugar and the spices the same, but I added two tablespoons of flour so I wouldn't be so runny and a quarter teaspoon of ground ginger, I also layered the top of the apples with chopped walnuts before adding the crust. I personally didn't have any problems whatsoever with the crust, in fact, I find it easier to work with than the classic pie crust. It also looks beautiful with the egg wash. It's not really fall until you bake your first apple dessert, isn't it?.

One Bowl Brownies
This was not only my first time baking brownies, but my first time eating brownies (yep, I come from a brownie-less country), I followed the recipe exactly, except that I baked them in a smaller dish (9x11)and I added a 1/4 tsp. salt. At precisely 35 minutes, I pulled the brownies out of the oven and I was met with a shiny surface and a heavenly smell and when cutting them off, they came off the pan perfectly without getting stuck at all, perhaps it was the fact that I used a glass pan?. Well, it turns out I don't like brownies at all!, the concept is far to much for me, too dense, too sweet, too chocolate-y; but my husband, who's american, told me they were absolutely perfect in every sense possible, so, five stars!.
