Gingerbread Pear Cake

Reviewed: Dec. 15, 2009
Not impressed. First day, cake was dry and just ok. Second day, the topping had soaked through and cake was a little sunken and too moist: almost soggy. Good flavor that day, but wouldn't want to serve it like that.

Sam's Famous Carrot Cake

Reviewed: Jul. 22, 2009
Exceptional! Made exactly as written. Brought it to the office & the most finicky eater said it was delicious...better than his wife's. I used the Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting from this site for a lighter touch.

Cheesecake Cookie Cups

Reviewed: Dec. 30, 2008
So easy, so good! I've made these several times and love how quick, delicious, and how they always turn out perfectly. The last time I made them, I tried just using store-bought gingersnaps as the crust. I put one in the bottom of the muffin liner then put the filling on top and baked - it was wonderful...the gingersnap softened and was similar to a graham-cracker crust.

Easy Orange Rolls

Reviewed: Dec. 6, 2008
Delicious and easy! My daughter and I both loved it. You'll need a pan, not a plate, to flip this onto. I spilled some of the liquid on the kitchen floor when I turned it over onto my plate because there's a lot of liquid that oozes out. I'll be taking to the office soon & making a lot of people happpy for breakfast!

Spinach Quiche

Reviewed: Nov. 5, 2008
Waaaayyy too much feta. I'm rating this according to the printed recipe. I wish I would have just put half the feta in - would have rated much better. I did't use the whole amount of butter and it was plenty. The crust was crispy and everything baked perfectly. I used fresh spinach and added a little bacon. I do like feta...just not that much. Very overpowering and salty.

Caramel Popcorn Balls

Reviewed: Oct. 30, 2008
This has a wonderful flavor. I couldn't find my thermometer, so I cooked to the soft ball stage by testing with water. I used 3 bags of microwave popcorn, but may use 4 next time. The balls were a little too soft and chewy, so I put in a 225 degree oven until they were a little crispy - about 30 minutes. They could have gone longer - they were still chewy, but not as soft. I cloroxed my sink & used it to put the popcorn in and mix - hot water cleaned it right up.

Made this recipe exactly as written and would't change a thing! The sunflower seeds added a delicious crunch and all the ingredients just blended for a wonderful taste treat! Hard to stop eating it! Thanks, Jen!

This is now one of my favorite soup recipes. I like to add baby spinach and sometimes some lentils.

Playgroup Granola Bars

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2008
These bars are the BEST! Many days, they're my breakfast! The flavor is outstanding. I added craisins & walnuts, use just 1/3 cup of brown sugar (not packed), whole wheat flour, 1/3 c flax, & 1/3 c wheat germ.

Roquefort Pear Salad

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2008
Excellent. Always a big hit. As suggested, I used dijon mustard in the dressing and a couple of packages of spring mix lettuce.

Delicious Raspberry Oatmeal Cookie Bars

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2008
I was disappointed. They were lacking. They were also too sugary-tasting (grainy).

Double Layer Pumpkin Cheesecake

Reviewed: Nov. 21, 2007
I read through the reviews and revised a little. It didn't rise at all, so I took out a tiny slice and it was fabulous! (I made for Thanksgiving, so I wanted to be sure it wasn't a flop) I used 3 pkgs of cream cheese, 1/3 c sour cream, only had 2 eggs, used extra pumpkin & spices. I tried my first water bath and it was a consistent texture all through. I had read that foil can leak so I used a Reynold's cooking bag to prevent water seepage - it worked perfectly...just scrunch the bag down to the top of the pan and it won't fall over on the cheesecake! ( or you could cut some of the excess off...I was trying to see if I could re-use the bag) I baked for 50 minutes and removed from oven immediately to cool. I let sit for an hour and put in refrigerator...no cracks! It's not a heavy cheesecake...very light. Love it!

Cranberry Gelatin Salad II

Reviewed: Nov. 20, 2007
This has been a family favorite for years. I don't reserve the extra for the top...I just mix all together. People who don't care for the traditional cranberry jellos or sauces love this dish.

Microwave Peanut Brittle

Reviewed: Nov. 13, 2007
This recipe got rave reviews from my co-workers. I made exactly as written, using raw spanish peanuts...all 3 batches were perfect. I sprayed a piece of foil with non-stick spray for easy cleanup (laid it on top of cookie sheet) Will never make on stove again!!
