I was looking for a recipe to use some of the basil which I had grown, although; this recipe called for dried basil, I used fresh and lots of it since I like basil. I thought it turned out fantastic. Since I was cooking with wine and the recipe didn't call for any. I stirred all of the cheese in and forgot to reserve 1/2 to put on top and it was fine. I also added some rotisserie chicken to make it a one dish meal. Served it with a salad, some crusty buttered bread, and the rest of the wine. Mmmm, Thanks for a great recipe.

I trippled the recipe because I was making this for a large group. It seemed like it took a long time for the sugar to melt and walnuts ended up being a bit hard. Perhaps I had too much for the size of my pan, also I thought it was too much sugar. This is a good salad and an easy recipe to substitute whatever you like. I think next time I will cut back on the sugar and use pecans.

People say these are the best cupcakes they've ever had! That being said, The next time, I would do as another reviewer said and fill the cups 1/4 full then add 1 Tbs of filling then top with small amount of batter. So that the cups are 2/3 full. I followed the recipe exactly and I had filling left over and the filling is so good, the cupcakes would have been even better with more than the tsp. Also the cupcakes spilled over some. Still these were awesome.
