This is the best frosting ever!! Made it last week for my cupcakes and making it again later for my cake! I will admit, it does take much longer to get "peaks" than it says...... but, worth the tired arm!! I especially like that it's not that sweet, just right.

Simple White Cake

Reviewed: Jul. 7, 2010

I was worried about making this cake this morning, with so many negative reviews about the cake being very dry and dense and needing more than 1/2 cup milk. I followed the receipe and had more milk ready just in case I needed more. After putting in the 1/2 cup milk, it was so super smooth, there was no reason to add more milk. That surprised me after what I read about the batter needing more milk. I made cupcakes, so, when they cooled off, I had one so that I could finish this review, it was the most perfect, moist cupcake I ever ate!! I really don't understand how so many people can have different opinions, so, don't let this receipe scare away a new "baker" that wants to try this cake! Only different thing I did was use egg whites since I can't have yolks and used Lataid milk since I can't have dairy. Perfect cupcakes!!

Streusel Topped Blueberry Muffins

Reviewed: May 17, 2009

Just made thise muffins early this morning and thought they were great! I never use butter or oil, only applesauce but didn't have any so the fat in them isnt good for me, but, I used egg whites and non-fat, non-dairy milk. I was only able to make 6 for some reason. The next time I am making them in a cake pan, they tasted more like blueberry cake instead of muffins. And of course next time I will use applesauce in place of butter. Actually looking forward to having them again!!

Sweet Potato Pie IV

Reviewed: Oct. 11, 2004

I made this sweet potato pie last night with our turkey dinner. I feel so foolish, my daughter told me it't a dessert and I usded it as a vegetable, but it was toooooo sweet. I only put a tiny bit of the condensed milk and not much sugar, but it was way too sweet for me. I may make it for my family on Thanksgiving for a different dessert. I was wondering, did any one else use this as a vegetable? Is it only a dessert?

Jewish Coffee Cake

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2004

I read this morning about the Jewish Coffee Cake and the reviews sounded great!! The mistake I made was forgetting everyone's comment about checking the cake after about 45 minutes!! I waited one hour and it was super dry!! I will try it again next weekend and will be careful to check it much, much sooner!!
