I made cupcakes instead of a cake! I followed the recipe for the cake exactly as writen. They came out very moist and delicious. For the icing I used a little bit less sugar than called for and a little more cool whip to make it a tad creamier. I made these for Thanksgiving so to please everybody I used 3 different candies; Butterfinger, Kit Kat, and Heath. The Kit Kat was the family favorite, but the colors of the Butterfinger were perfect for really cute fall cupcakes! I didn't feel the need to freeze the candy. I used my Pampered Chef chopper to chop it all and it worked wonderful.

These were soooooo good! I used 2 eggs and added a splash of vanilla. Make sure you grease your pan good. These are very sticky!

These were yummy. I made these so long ago that I really don't remember if I changed anything or not. I don't think I did. I do remember that they were good though. My only complaint is that I wish they would of baked up a prettier golden brown.

We really didn't care either way for this meatloaf. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't really that great. I used 2 lbs. of ground meat and though that 2 eggs was too much. I also did what Connie said and used cheese crackers and a cheese blend instead of just cheddar and sifted out the soup mix and left just the onion flakes. My husband and I thought it was just really bland even after heavily seasoning it with cajun seasoning. (I'm from Louisiana, we season everything heavily!) I even used Chipotle flavored cheese crackers. I was really disappointed because I guess I had high expectations, but the flavor just wasn't there. We couldn't even taste the cheese, just seemed like a waste of calories. But oh well :)

This was really really good! My husband could not stop eating it! I also bought beef that was already cut up from the grocery store to save some time in the morning. I read quite a few reviews so I would know what to expect and here is what I did. I seasoned the meat very generously with Slap Ya Momma (a cajun seasoning from where I live in Louisiana) and put it straight into the crockpot without browning it. I doubled the bouillion cube and water and I set it on low for about 9 hours (without the peppers) and left for work. When I got home I added a little bit of beef broth to make a little bit more gravy and another tablespoon of cornstarch and a ton more seasoning because it was pretty bland. I continued to let it sit on high until we were ready to eat. When I put the rice cooking that is when I added the peppers, I used green, red and yellow to add color. When the rice was done the peppers were perfect, just the right amount of crunch. Yummy! I will definitely be making this again. Here in Louisiana rice and gravy is a staple at the dinner table, my mother cooked it every night when I was growing up. It was really nice to be able to have something very similar without all the effort and added oils and fats.

Great icing! I really only tasted a dab of it because I don't really care for icing. Everybody else thought it was great though and told me not to change a thing. I used half butter and half shortening. Perfect!

I really didn't care for it and neither did my husband. I made the white cake for cupcakes. I did as other reviewers suggested and used oil instead of shortening and added more sugar and milk. My cupcakes came out way too packy. They were not fluffy at all. It wasn't dry though, which alot of other reviewers mentioned. I gave this recipes 3 stars because they weren't inedible, but I will probably never make this again. I think box mix would've been way better.

Amazing! I had actually never even tasted chicken and dumplings when I made this. My friend and I were sitting around my house one day and we wanted to cook and she mentioned chicken and dumplings, so I got on here and found this recipe. Wow...really good! I even went to Cracker Barrel and ordered chicken and dumplings and they were disgusting! I used thigh meat instead of breasts just because I don't really like white meat all that much and I also used 1 can of cream of chicken and 1 can of cream of celery. I also added some cajun seasoning to spice it up just because we love spicy!!!

I cooked this in the slow cooker all day and when my husband and I came home we were kind of nervous to eat it because it didn't look very good. lol! But once we ate it we thought it was excellent! We had leftovers for days!

I am from South Louisiana and I eat this all the time at restaurants and weddings and was thrilled to find this recipe. I loved it! I also love to read other reviews and see so many people freaking about it being so spicy. lol! Well I added a ton more. There is no such thing as too spicy where I come from! lol!

This is really good and very easy. We have made it twice already. My husband loved it!

These cookies were sooooooo GOOD!!! I made them with chocolate chips instead of raisins. I also didn't realize that I don't like cloves. lol! But they were still amazing. So the next time I make these they will just be regular old oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. No spice. lol! I bought them into the office and they were gone in 5 minutes.

Delicious!!! Better than most restaurants around where I live. I didn't change a thing except being from (South Louisiana) I added cajun seasoning. Yummy!!! Definitely will make again and again!

These meatballs were absolutely way too salty. I am from South Louisiana and I hated them. I was planning on making these for a family Christmas party and was trying to show off my cooking skills...well...that didn't happen. My husband and I couldn't even eat them so their was no way I was serving them to my family. I actually ended up going to the store and buying frozen meatballs. I did enjoy the sauce which is why I even gave it 2 stars. I used barbeque sauce from this really great bbq joint and apricot preserves because I couldn't find peach.

This was amazing! I've never tried to make baked macaronni just because every time I've ever tasted it it's always so dry and not very cheesy. But this was perfect! I read alot of the other reviews and also used 1 1/2 cups of milk, 2 cans of soup, and a couple of spoonfuls of sour cream. I also used an 8 oz. bag of colby/jack cheese and an 8 oz. bag of sharp cheddar and mixed it all together. I kept a little bit to sprinkle on the top with some breadcrumbs to make it a little crispier. Oh and one more thing, I am from South Louisiana and you know how we love our food spicy, I added quite a bit of cajun seasoning to it. Yummy!!!!! Will definitely make this again!

Our stromboli actually came out looking like a calzone. lol. We couldn't find a loaf of frozen bread dough so we ended up buying a refrigerated french bread loaf in a can. It was really hard to roll out, my husband had to help me with it and he was getting so frustrated and in the middle of the process he actually even said "we are never making this again." lol! So we ended up just made a really flat circle and put everything on one side and then folded it over and pinched it together. We used a really thick deli ham instead of pepperoni and we used an italian blend cheese instead of just mozzarella. I definitely used way more than the recipe called for. We also basted the top with butter and sprinkled italian seasonings on top. We also didn't put any sauce on it, but I did dip my stromboli into some italian ragu sauce. It was absolutely wonderful and while eating my husband said "ok we are gonna have to make this again." haha! It was really easy to make and there is just so much you can do with it besides pepperoni. The italian seasoning made the recipe though. Thanks to all of you who mentioned it. I don't think it would of been as good without it :)

Very good! I used the Ritz vegetable flavored crackers to give it a different taste. I also put more seasoning. Very juicy. I made it for some friends and they all loved it. Thanks!

I am from South Louisiana and have just recently ate this dish for the very first time at a restaurant. I absolutely loved it and wanted to learn how to make it. I just made it and all I did different was added a ton more seasoning. Next time I will also remember to buy unsweetened corn. I had to add alot of salt because the corn was really sweet. Other than that my fiance loved it and so did I.

Excellent! I tried this last night and it came out very good. Everyone enjoyed. I also put alot less sour cream and i found that it was just right.
