Rum Cake II
This recipe is amazing. I have made it a few times and I am always asked for the recipe. I had to change somethings just because I didn't have certain ingrediants in the house. I don't have buttermilk so I add 1/4 cup sour cream and 3/4 cup milk. It makes the cake a bit denser but I like that because it holds the sauce better without it falling apart. I also only had 1 cup butter and 1 cup margerine so I did half and half in the glaze and the cake and it turned out just fine. I also like to sugar my bundt pan by coating it with cooking spray and then putting sugar all around the sides instead of greasing and flouring the pan. It gives the outside of the cake a crunchy sugary glaze. I also only have Rum flavored oil which is quite strong. So I do 1/4th tsp. of that in the cake and then I add 1/4th tsp. into a half cup water and add that to the glaze. It all works out perfect. I also love that this cake is from scratch because all the recipes I have found on here for rum cake only use boxed cake mixes and I usually don't have those on hand. Thank you SOOO much for a super duper recipe.

Brooke's Best Bombshell Brownies
I have made these brownies several times and they have become the only brownies I will make EVER. I had my daughter make them today and she assumed one cup butter was the same as one cube butter, but it didn't effect the recipe at all. I like to pair these with the Rich chocolate frosting from this site and it is THE BOMB!!!

Clone of a Cinnabon
What a great recipe. I did what other suggested and I inverted them onto a jelly roll pan and let them sit for about 20 minutes and then frosted them. My husband is a frosting freek so we doubled the frosting and they were fabulous. I just used regular yeast in my bread machine and it worked great. I set my convection oven for 350 and I watched them for 15 minutes so they wouldn't burn and they came out great. The first time I made them I wasen't paying attention and they got pretty brown on top. But by turning them over and then frosting them no one could tell. My husband asked me to make them again tonight so I did and they turned out great. THANK YOU!
