This is good bread - but I don't think the Cardamom flavor is strong at all. Anticipating that, I doubled the amount and still couldn't differentiate it. We liked the bread, but it wasn't quite what I was looking for, and seemed very similar to any other bread recipe.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough + Cupcake = The BEST Cupcake. Ever.

Reviewed: May 15, 2012

This was good. Although I have to disagree, and say that we preferred the "second best cupcake" which has brownie batter in it. I found that it was hard to tell when the cake was done. However, it WAS good and it is definitely worth trying. I used Chocolate Marshmallow frosting from this site, which I think helped to make this cupcake. Given the choice again, I think I will make the brownie recipe over this one.

Banana Pudding IV

Reviewed: Apr. 2, 2012

This was very well received at a family get together. People commented "this is not your average banana pudding". The only reason why I am not giving it 5 stars is because I personally didn't care for it, and it won't be in my regular recipe rotation unless requested.

Chicken Chimi in the Oven

Reviewed: Mar. 28, 2012

This was good - my husband liked it and even took leftovers for lunch, which considering he isn't a huge chicken fan, is a good indicator for this recipe. It took a lot longer than 15 minutes for it to get even a little crispy, and they were difficult to turn in the oven. I think I will cut the rolls in half next time for easier turning. I also didn't put the entire 1/4 cup of chili powder in, that just seemed way too much and since it was late, I didn't want to make something inedible. I just estimated the amount based on what I put in other similar dishes. All in all, I'll likely make this again. Thanks!

Rocky Road Ice Cream

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2012

This was ok - not the best chocolate base in my opinion. I think I'll continue to look for other recipes.

Irish Shepherds Pie

Reviewed: Mar. 20, 2012

This is pretty good - I enjoyed making it, but it wasn't loved by my husband. That might be because it was lamb, and I generally make Shepherds' pie with ground beef. However, I enjoyed it I just didn't think it was spectacular.

Grandma Johnson's Scones

Reviewed: Mar. 16, 2012

I made these a few weeks ago for the first time. I had trouble initially with the dough - it was really crumbly. I am still giving it 5 stars for taste though, I think it was just my inexperience making scones - and also the fact that I live at high elevation that could be affecting the outcome. I am definitely going to make this recipe again and anticipate that it will come out even better!

Brownie Batter + Cupcake = The SECOND BEST Cupcake. Ever

Reviewed: Mar. 16, 2012

Really good and easy recipe. I didn't get anywhere close to 48 cupcakes, but that might be pan size differences or something. Paired it with the fluffy peanut butter frosting. Husband and guests loved it. I also served it with homemade ice cream. Will likely make again.

Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting

Reviewed: Mar. 16, 2012

Really liked this frosting, paired it (as recommended) with the Brownie Batter + Cupcake recipe and it was incredibly well-received! My husband didn't want to share it with our guests. I liked the fluffiness of the recipe, it is easy and I always have the ingredients on hand. Definitely a keeper!

Buttery Cinnamon Cake

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2011

I made this last night and served it warm to a group of friends. It was well received, and one of the ladies said she didn't care much for cinnamon- and this was the perfect amount. I'm not giving it 5 starts simply because I feel that it needs MORE cinnamon. I could barely taste it. I'm not quite sure if I'll make it again - but if I do I'll definitely increase the cinnamon. Also - don't forget to flour the pan (like I did) otherwise the cake won't come out in one piece!

Caramel Apple Coffee Cake

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2011

This was very good, well enjoyed by my coworkers. I agree that the amount of oil is too high - but that is easily solved by substituting applesauce, which is something I generally do anyway. Will very likely make again.

Zucchini Cornbread Casserole

Reviewed: Jul. 28, 2011

This was very good - I forgot to put in the salt and pepper and it definitely needs it. But I will make this again. I especially enjoyed the cheese in the recipe.

Baked Potato Skins

Reviewed: Mar. 18, 2011

I made this a while back and forgot to rate it - my potato skins turned out great, exactly what I was looking for. It takes a bit to get through all of the steps, but will definitely make again.

Easy Pizza Sauce III

Reviewed: Jan. 24, 2011

This was a very easy sauce, and nice because I always have the ingredients on hand. I use fresh garlic - and the second time I made it I put in an Italian Seasoning mix rather than just oregano. Will definitely stay in my recipe box, great to use for a quick sauce.

Emily's Famous Marshmallows

Reviewed: Dec. 29, 2010

These didn't turn out quite the way I expected - I think after reading some reviews I will add more flavoring next time. Also they were VERY difficult to cut, perhaps piping them out is the best answer. I'll likely try again but after reading more into other recipes.

Amish Breakfast Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 29, 2010

This was good, I just finished off the last of the casserole. I don't think it was spectacular as far as flavors, but it was easy to make. I forgot to buy swiss cheese so I just used an Italian cheese mix I generally have on hand. Will likely make again - in rotation with the other breakfast casseroles that I have tried.

Big Soft Ginger Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2010

Very good! Received great comments on these cookies. My only problem now will be deciding whether to make these cookies, the gingerbread biscotti recipe from this site, or the Spicy Gingerbread men. I love them all!

Fudge Truffle Cheesecake

Reviewed: Dec. 15, 2010

This was good - but I don't know if I'll make it again. It's very rich, and it was difficult to tell when it was done. Overall I wasn't super impressed by the taste and consistency, it was good but not great.

Cabbage Roll Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 13, 2010

A little disappointed in this recipe - it wasn't bad, but it just didn't wow either of us. I think I like the traditional cabbage roll better, even though it is more work. I can't pinpoint what we didn't like about it.
