Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies

Reviewed: Jul. 1, 2009
They must be good because my picky husband loved them. I don't eat peanut butter cookies, but I trust his picky judgement on these. They are a keeper for us. I followed the recipe exactly.

Absolutely Sinful Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies

Reviewed: Jun. 26, 2009
This is "the chocolate chip cookie" recipe for me! I have tried most of the top rated ones, but this one is the winner. I followed the recipe, with exception of the unsweetened chocolate because I didn't have any on hand. This is more cakey and soft which is the type of cookie I love. I sprayed the cookie sheet each time with cooking spray and I baked on a dark non-stick pan. For some reason, a lighter metal pan would not bake the cookie properly. My husband is extremely picky and he loved them.

Marshmallow Fondant

Reviewed: Jun. 18, 2009
Perfection! This was my first time working with fondant and it went very smoothly. The only tricky part I encountered was when I was rolling the fondant out, it would stick in places on the counter although it was very powdered, so it took me a couple of tries, but is no big deal! Thanks!

Lemon Cake with Lemon Filling and Lemon Butter Frosting

Reviewed: Jun. 10, 2009
I think this recipe is fantastic! Just enough sweetness and tart. I would recommend doubling the buttercream frosting. I was conservative with the middle layer and I still didn't have enough to ice the rest of the cake.

Quick and Easy Chicken Noodle Soup

Reviewed: Jun. 8, 2009
This is the classic homemade chicken noodle soup recipe. The flavor is really rich and delicious. I followed the recipe exactly, including using celery. Add the noodle uncooked to the broth and by the time it is done simmering, the noodles are perfect and the vegetables are soft.

Lemon Thyme Rice

Reviewed: Jun. 8, 2009
This is a fantastic recipe. Reduce the thyme a bit otherwise add basil which is what I normally do. This rice has a great, light flavor to it and I make this frequently in my home. I like to add fresh cracked pepper to the top of mine just before serving. Be careful not to add too much lemon or it could ruin the recipe. I doubled this, recently, and took it to a barbeque and everyone wanted to know what the recipe was.

Easter Eggs

Reviewed: Jun. 1, 2009
These are awesome! I followed the recipe exactly and the coconut eggs taste phenomenal! Next time, I am only going to make the coconut. I tempered my choclate, so I would get that crisp, dry chocolate shell that does not need to be refridgerated. I have made the coconut eggs several times and I even bring them to barbeques. Everyone is amazed how wwonderful and professional these taste. I HIGHLY recommend tempering your chocolate and using onlu milk chocolate for that real candy taste. I also recommend that your FREEZE the eggs before dipping them into chocolate. Dipping into chocolate can sometimes me tricky or difficult if you are new to it, you may find it to be messy, but it takes time, patience, and practice to get the hang of it.

Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes

Reviewed: May 29, 2009
Not a bad recipe, excellent base. I felt they were a little blah, I needed to add more salt and fresh cracked pepper to them to give them flavor. I would make these again.

Juicy Roasted Chicken

Reviewed: May 21, 2009
This was my first time preparing a chicken like this. I followed the direction exactly except I didn't use celery because I normally don't keep it on hand, but I would be willing to use it next time. My husband said this is a keeper! I highly recommend this recipe, make it as is!

Mound Bars

Reviewed: May 21, 2009
Great! I added 2 2/3 cups of coconut and used milk chocolate chips because I think that taste much better than semi-sweet chocolate. If you have lumps in the chocolate it is either because you let it cool and you need to slightly re-heat or you over-heated it. I highly suggest using Hersheys milk chocolate in the form of either chocolate chips, or candy bars. I never had any problems spreading the coconut over the bottom layer. I can see where it would break, but try to pour the mixture all over as best as possible and not just in the center. Spread is gently and carefully. Best served cold or cool.

Garlic Red Potatoes

Reviewed: May 15, 2009
Loved this! I made the recipe exactly as stated and I put some fresh cracked pepper on top when it came out of the oven. The lemon is a must, and the flavor of it is very subtle, but it is what makes this recipe different.

Super Delicate Chocolate Buttercream

Reviewed: May 13, 2009
I thought this was pretty good. The only thing I left out was the rum because it isn't something that I have on hand. Delicious! :)

White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies IV

Reviewed: May 13, 2009
I have made a wide variety of cookies from here before, but this is by far the best! The cookies are not flat and they come out perfect! I baked at 350 and I added 1/8 cup more flour as someone else recommended. This time I used a regular cookie sheet instead of an insulated one. Perfection with this one!

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

Reviewed: May 13, 2009
Fabulous recipe, great combination. I made some buttercream for the top. I prefer to eat these when they are cool or cold. My picky husband loves them and I took them to a barbeque and everyone loved them there too! These are truly delicious! I am not sure why the previous person who rated this gave a bad review, it doesn't deserve it. ;)

Party Punch VI

Reviewed: May 4, 2009
I used Sprite, Hawaiian Punch and Berry Sherbert. Just don't forget to chill the liquids, ours was a tad warm, but no one seemed to mind because the taste was right on. Next time I will chill. You could float some lemon, lime or orange slices and some cherries for decoration.

Croutons

Reviewed: May 3, 2009
Great base recipe. I used some soursough loaf bread from Costco and I used olive oil and salt and fresh cracked pepper. I prefer mine with a subtle flavor. I will use these on my salad and in some roasted tomato soup like they do at Tender Greens. Excellent, thanks!

Marinade for Chicken

My husband seems to like it, I don't eat meat so it is hard for me to judge, but it looks and smells great. I use olive oil instead of vegetable oil.

Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies III

Reviewed: Apr. 24, 2009
These are amazing! The cookie turned out perfectly and the filling is exceptional. I followed the recipe exactly including using heavy cream for the filling. It doesn't make many because you double up on the cookies to make the sandwich, but I may buy a small cookie scoop and try that next time like someone else mentioned.
