Maple Pecan Shortbread Squares
very good recipe, my kids really appreciated it: and they can eat pecans, which are healthy! I doubled it, because I thought there was no point in baking such a small amount. The quantity is perfect for a 9x13 baking dish really. Definitely a keeper!

Pizza Swirls
good for parties, for snacks and my son likes the little swirls for breakfast too... I'm an experienced pizza baker and was really satisfied with these: easier than they may seem, and it's up to you to decide what's best on there... they are pretty, too! tried yesterday for a brunch with friends and I think I'll be repeating for the Xmas buffet, only with a variety of ingredients (ham? mushrooms? anchovies?...) definitely a winner!!!

Turtle Cake I
the cake is quite great and very easily put together. I used a round 9 inch pan, and think I shuold use a 13x9 next time: the pan seemed too full and I was afraid to have a mess in my oven (I even lined it with aluminium foil to get caramel sauce drippings... which Honestly was not necessary after all). I omitted the butter entirely in the sauce, as it seemed so rich: I must say nobody even realized that butter was missing... if you want to eat it warm, you'll have a cake with caramel sauce. If you wait and have it cold, I guess it would be less saucy and more like a real filling. Maybe cutting a little on the evaporated milk is worth a try.
