This is a good breakfast bread. It's not overly sweet, unless you add some chocolate chips in it like I did. It was very good and filling. I made buttermilk by using 1 tbs white vinegar and 1 c skim milk.

Best Brownies

Reviewed: Feb. 19, 2009

The taste was great. However, this recipe ended up being more of a semi-dense chocolate cake and not brownies. Loved the chocolate glaze mixture.

Chicken Piccata I

Reviewed: Feb. 19, 2009

Pretty good base recipe to really let your personality and style come out in preparation. You can add, deduct, or whatever to truly own this recipe.

Garlic Mashed Red Potatoes

Reviewed: Jan. 28, 2009

This was a very good recipe. The potatoes seemed a bit thick and probably need just a little more milk that the recipe calls. I would also probably add a little more salt and just a dash of pepper.

Home Style Macaroni and Cheese

Reviewed: Jan. 20, 2009

This was a wonderful base. I did change a few things. We did not have any dijon mustard, which my wife does not like anyway, so I added 1/2 tsp of minced garlic to the mixture. I also added 1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese with the cheddar. I also used low-fat cream cheese, and it was plenty creamy. Let me say, this recipe was spectacular, and my wife loved it and is her new favorite mac and cheese recipe.

Decorator Frosting

Reviewed: Dec. 15, 2008

This was really good icing. We used it on some spiced sugar cookies and it blended perfectly. One thing to make sure of, unless you want what my wife calls (snow icing), is that the butter/margarine is completely at room temperature to ensure that the ingredients meld together.

Gingerbread Men

Reviewed: Dec. 9, 2008

This is a great mild gingerbread cookie. I made a few revisions, which is why I didn't give it 5 stars: add tsp vanilla, used 2 tsp of ginger, added a sprinkle of cloves and nutmeg for just a little more spice to bring out the ginger flavor. Also, I used vanilla instant pudding mix instead of butterscotch. These turned out wonderful. The dough was a little light and cracked right out of the fridge, but once you start working with it, it gets darker at room temperature and sticks together very well.

Rich Chocolate Pumpkin Truffles

Reviewed: Nov. 18, 2008

I didn't add the chocolate into the recipe, and I added a little vanilla, nutmeg, and ground cloves into the mixture. I refrigerated it overnight and used the chocolate to dip the truffles in to create a more pumpkin flavored center. I also used apple juice instead of the liqueur. They turned out really good. Next time, I will probably just use pumpkin pie spice and a little vanilla.
