Scottish Shortbread IV
These always get great reviews from the people I make it for. However, I have one IMPORTANT suggestion to everyone - add about 1/4-1/2 tsp. of salt to the recipe. Salt is essential in bringing out flavor, not just in this recipe, but every recipe. It doesn't make it taste salty, it just makes it possible to taste the butter and sugary goodness. Good luck!

Basil Shrimp
Reduce the brown mustard, but most of all... Don't marinade for a whole hour! Shrimp (and all seafood for that matter) actually starts to cook when it sits in citrus juice. It doesn't need marinading more than 15-20 minutes!! Otherwise you will end up with tough, chewy shrimp.

Blueberry Sour Cream Coffee Cake
Oh my goodness, this was amazing! I only made very slight alterations, but this was one of the best "cakes" I've ever made. I did not include any pecans b/c I'm allergic to nuts, I added a little less butter and white sugar, and almost doubled the blueberries. I should have let it cook another 5 minutes, but it was so moist and delicious it didn't matter! I made it for brunch with my friends and even one who doesn't like blueberries loved this! The best part was the crunchy cinnamon/brown sugar, so make sure to swirl well. Delicious!
