Great recipe, but I did alter it...I added two eggs, 1/3 cup melted butter, and my home-grown butternut squash (15 oz). Also, I skipped the cloves and added a tablespoon of ginger powder. These were so darn good that all 18 muffins were gone in 24 hours (I have teenagers who swim daily).

Spooky Witches Fingers

Reviewed: Nov. 5, 2009

Definitely use the green food coloring and double the almond extract for better flavor. These were a BIG hit! I used pomagranate jelly to stick on the 'bloody nails' before baking. Big hit with the neighbor kids and Grandma, too!

Fresh Pumpkin Pie

Reviewed: Nov. 5, 2009

I made this with one of my butternut squash and it was fantastico!! Hot out of the oven with vanilla ice cream made it heavenly. I must add that I do not use crust, I just spray the baking dish with pam and pour in the filling. Less calories, less work!! My family gobbled this one up!

Blue Cheese and Walnut Wafers

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2008

These were a major hit! I used a little more bleu cheese, a little less butter, and almonds instead of walnuts. They had to bake a longer, about 15 minutes. The taste was exceptional - nutty and delicious. We topped ours with a dollop of homemade hot pepper jelly.

These were a Thanksgiving sensation, and were very easy to make. I froze the filling ahead of time and made them immediately before guests arrived. Very good!

Turkey Brine

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2007

This made one excellent turkey! I cut the vegetable broth in half and used one bottle of white wine instead. I also added plenty of garlic. Very good recipe!

Baked Whole Cauliflower

Reviewed: Nov. 26, 2005

Very good recipe, although I used 1 tsp of garlic powder for a large head of cauliflower, and I added 1/4 cup of olive oil (it was a big head!). There was none left over, and the aroma made the house smelled FANTASTIC!!!

Panettone I

Reviewed: Nov. 26, 2005

This was a fantastic recipe! I used 5 1/2 cups of flour, and instead of the dried raisins and currants I used candied fruit (fruit-cake fruit). It was the BEST recipe for Panettone I have ever had! Tante Grazie, que benissimo!
