Foolproof Chocolate Fudge
I've been using this recipe for years. I do it exactly as it is written and it comes out perfect every time! It is rich and creamy, most people think you spend a long time making it, it is that good. Thank you for sharing it on this site.

S'Mores Bars
I don't understand the bad reviews. I followed the recipe exactly and it was fine. It got rave reviews when taken to a holiday treat table at work. Gave a pan to all of my family (7 siblings) for christmas with the pan. They love them, I've been told they are addicting and have been made numerous times by some of my siblings. Shrug. They loved it, the bars set up after being allowed to cool. I did not find the syrup to be an issue or the time it took to make it. Nothing stuck to the pan. I used non stick pans and sprayed liberally with PAM. Came out like the recipe states and looks like the photo shown. Thanks for sharing this recipe here!!!

Sour Cream Raisin Pie V
Made this pie yesterday, never made meringue before. I researched it on the internet so I'd know what to do...it was perfect. It turned out good and very decadent. Thank you for sharing your recipe here with us.
