About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
I love making things mini and bite size. For example, mini cheese cakes, quices, banana muffins. My mini cupcake pans get tons of use!
My cooking triumphs
I have since conquered the cheesecake (see below)! I now know the basic requirements and frequently experiment with different types.
My cooking tragedies
I once tried to make a cheesecake and after baking it for over an hour it was still jiggly in the middle. I left it in for an additional half hour and finally gave up. It was in a springform pan and after I let it cool and tried to remove the springform, it flattened out on the cookiesheet that I have baked the whole thing on. Good thing I had it contained on something!

Poke Cake II
My MIL makes this all the time, accept she makes it in a 9x13 pan. I think the layer cake will make it much prettier! I made if for the Fourth of July this year and topped it with blueberries, raspberries and strawberries to make a flag. I alway use strawberry jello, but I bet other flavors would be good too.

Potato Soup Mix
This soup turned out well, but was quite salty. I wished I followed other's advice and used less salt.

Cookie in a Jar
These cookies were dryer than I was expecting... a little more like a biscuit, as other reviewers suggested. Even so, my husband couldn't get enough of them. I'm planning to use these cookie jars as favors at a shower I'm throwing.
