Urban Legend Chocolate Chip Cookies
Excellent texture and flavor. I cut the white sugar in half and used whole wheat pastry flour instead of AP.

Pastry Cream
UPDATE: Made it again following the recipe exactly and I am thrilled with the results. And a tip - pour through fine sieve to get a really smooth custard. Increased to 5 stars! FIRST REVIEW: (Original rating of 3 stars) Follow the recipe! I made the mistake of making this in a double boiler and it took forever to thicken. I should have brought it to a boil over low heat as stated in the recipe. I am disappointed with the end product (can taste the cornstarch), but it's due to my own mistake.

Banana Prune Muffins
I made a no-sugar version that turned out really well. Here's how you can do it: put 10 prunes in a measuring cup and fill with water to the 3/4 cup level. Microwave for 3-4 minutes until boiling and then let it sit for 5 minutes. Puree this and use it instead of the sugar. I also reduced the oil to just 2 Tbs. The muffins were light and fluffy!
