Potato Chip Cookies VI

Reviewed: Jul. 9, 2011

I was looking for a specific cookie my godmother used to make when I was a kid... these were not it.... they were good except way too much sugar. If I try these again the sugar could probably easily be halved.

Dumplings

Reviewed: Apr. 28, 2011

Love love love the texure, nice and firm yet fluffy... even better the next day! Do yourself a favor and make these with buttermilk. If you find the batter a little too stiff add a little water or regular milk. Only giving 4 stars though because I thought they were a little bland. My mom always adds seasonings to hers.. pepper, garlic powder and onion powder... shoulda listened to mom, she's always right! lol

Southern Style Banana Split Cake

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2010

I made this for my dad's retirement party and got rave reviews! I did, however, change the crust. I used vanilla wafers and added about 3/4 cup ground peanuts. I added 1/2 tsp vanilla extract to the cream cheese mix, a layer of strawberry pie filling, and chocolate and sprinkles on top :)

Sweet, Sticky and Spicy Chicken

Reviewed: May 18, 2010

Very good! I added a 1/2 cup of water to the sauce to make it go a bit further. Plus I think it helped tone down the saltiness of the soy sauce too. I also dredged my chicken in a flour/cornstarch mixture. Added extra garlic and used red pepper flake in the place of the hot sauce cuz I didn have any, and served over nooddles cuz the husband doesn't like rice. Would be great to make again :)

Seafood Enchiladas

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2008

With the addition of some seasonings, these were great :) I used green onions as opposed to white... I don't like the taste of white. To both the sauce and the shrimp mixture, I added finely chopped garlic, parsley, and salt & pepper. You really want to beat the "bland?" Try adding 2 TBs of cocktail sauce to both the enchilada and the sauce... I think that's what really made a difference!

Cream Cheese, Garlic, and Chive Stuffed Chicken

Reviewed: Mar. 30, 2008

I used the basic concept, but I used onion & chive cream cheese with minced garlic and other seasonings, rolled with one piece of bacon each way so the cream cheese didn't run out. I sprinkled the top with basil and rosemary, and shredded cheese in the last 5 minutes. My hubby loved it, and I thought it was good, but not quite 5 stars for me.

Baked Macaroni and Cheese

Reviewed: Mar. 18, 2008

I ended up using both elbows and shells... I had a little of each. I also dabbed a little extra butter on the top. Instead of cheddar cheese, I used a taco blend and added some muenster. I did forget to season the recipe and a little seasoning would have made it even better, but the different cheeses helped. All in all it was pretty much what I was looking for :)

Mayonnaise Biscuits

Reviewed: Feb. 23, 2008

Interesting. I thought they tasted almost more like a pastry than a biscuit. They were good though, and my husband liked them even though he's not a mayo fan.

Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting

Reviewed: Feb. 23, 2008

I accidentally added too much milk so mine was a little thin, but this frosting is very smooth and tastes great! I also added about a 1/2 tsp of vanilla in with my first tablespoon of milk. Used this on the Chocolate Mayo Cake recipe from this site..yummy!

Perfect Scrambled Eggs

Reviewed: Jan. 29, 2008

The key to fluffy eggs is to remember NOT to overbeat them. Beat them until they are JUST scrambled. If you beat them too much they will turn out flat. Also, I prefer my eggs without the milk or a very small amount added.

Monkey Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 4, 2007

I didn't have a fluted pan, so I just used a regular oval casserole pan. Otherwise I made it according to directions and it is YUMMY!

Deep Dish Brownies

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2007

These brownies were good; cakey but I prefer a fudgy brownie. Also could have used a little more chocolate flavor. The only thing I did was add a handful of mini marshmallows and sprinkled a cup of peanut butter chips over the top before baking which was a nice addition. Think I'll keep looking for a fudgier brownie.

Best Brownies

Reviewed: Jul. 27, 2005

I didn't make the frosting, but instead made the "Caramel Frosting VI" from this site, using walnuts instead of pecans..... I normally like fudgier brownies but with the caramel frosting these were AWESOME!

Irish Cream Chocolate Cheesecake

Reviewed: May 24, 2005

I made a couple changes: first of all I substituted the irish creme with vanilla syrup and added about a teaspoon of vanilla extract and a teaspoon of almond extract. I mixed all the ingredients except for the cocoa powder, divided the batter, added half the amount of cocoa to one of the batter and then poured that in the pan and poured the vanilla over it to make a layered cake. Hubby loved the vanilla layer but thought the chocolate was so-so, as to where I loved them both. I think next time I will cut the flour though to make it a little creamier.
