Chocolate Cupcakes
The batter tasted so good, but these cupcakes didn't work out in the oven. They overflowed/exploded and then caved completely in the center. I had to throw away the entire batch and clean my oven. I don't know how anyone got this recipe to work, because I specifically experimented with filling the cups to different levels. The ones filled about halfway plumped up so beautifully to a crown, but then a minute or two later exploded just like the others. Something is wrong with the chemistry of this recipe.

Easy Slow Cooker Meatballs
I love the ease of this recipe. We did think it was pretty bland though. Next time I'll spice it up with some extra italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and maybe some crushed red pepper.

Cornish Hens with Rice Dressing
This really didn't turn out for me. The hens were pretty flavorless even though I rubbed them with garlic powder and extra salt and pepper. Maybe I should have skinned them first? But I was afraid they would dry out if I did that. And my rice turned out mushy and unevenly cooked, sort of a risotto consistency but not in a good way. I did use 1 cup rice and 2 cups chicken broth, so I'm glad I didn't double the liquid. I'm glad others have like it but it wasn't for me.
