Fudge-Nut Oatmeal Bars
VERY rich and fudgy! I don't know how anyone would manage to fit all the ingredients into a 13x9 pan, let alone eat one of the resulting bars - it would be overwhelming! In the pan required in the recipe, these are perfect. I didn't change anything except not adding the nuts, since we don't really care for them. Very good recipe!

Cranberry Orange Bread
Excellent bread! The orange flavor was nice, and I like the fact that it uses less fat than the other recipes. The one thing I did change was to use half the nuts called for and that was just plenty. For us, a full cup would have been too much. I'll be saving this recipe!

Texas Sheet Cake V
This cake is unreal, SO good! It's moist and chocolatey, just what I wanted. I don't have anything super helpful to add. I do think it's a good idea to have all of the ingredients for both the cake and the frosting set out because once you get started it goes fairly quickly. Pour the hot frosting on the hot cake as soon as it comes out of the oven - it sets up pretty quickly. Most of all, enjoy!
