Cookies 'n' Creme Fudge

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2009

Love the idea of using white chocolate, but this is just overpoweringly sweet making it hard to actually taste anything other than sugar. Super disappointed

I reduced the white sugar to half cup, used club-house type crackers, and used 2 cups milk chocolate chips (no butterscotch) with peanut butter for the topping. I give them four starts because I have quite a sweet tooth and enjoy the sweet treat, but my other half only ate half a bar and said they were way too sweet....needless to say they are lasting a long time with just me eating them, but I have been happily nibbling on them for days and they are still crunchy!

It's Chili by George!!

Reviewed: Oct. 8, 2009

This was great! Had crushed tomatoes on hand that replaced the juice, but have no doubt that almost any tomato base would give an awesome result. The quantities and spices are just wonderful, I have tried a variety of chili recipes from allrecipes that were okay, but all seemed to be missing something....my searching has ended and this will be my go-to recipe, everybody just loved it and we gladly gobbled up all the leftovers :)

Marshmallow Fondant

Reviewed: Jul. 20, 2009

I followed the recipe as written and greased mixer with shortening as recommended by many reviews. It simply did not work for me, will not try this again.

Ninety Minute Cinnamon Rolls

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2009

Followed recipe as written, majority of the cinnamon filling ran out/over flowed while in the oven resulting in rather dry and bland little cinnamon buns. I may try and make them again to see if I was off, as they seem to have gotten great reviews from many others....

Downeast Maine Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed: Nov. 16, 2008

Very good...used only 2 cups white and 2 cups brown sugar, baked mini muffins (12 mins) and regular muffins (24 mins), sprinkled with powdered sugar and they turned out great. I may slightly increase the amount of pumpkin increase the pumpkin flavor and moisture/density of the bread next time.

Best Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie

Reviewed: Aug. 21, 2008

Awesome recipe for big soft cookies....add whatever you like (different nuts and chips etc). I did cut the white sugar, but that's personal taste I guess, otherwise it is perfect!

Reviewed: Aug. 6, 2008

The nut and chip combo is great, but the amount of white sugar can be reduced greatly....way too sweat.

Caesar Salad II

Reviewed: Jul. 22, 2008

I thought this recipe seemed a bit strange at first, but man, am I glad I tried it! It is very good, and veg-heads as well as meat eaters can enjoy it. I made my own croutons, as many store brands use partially hydrogenated oils in them, so it was even more healthy. Great salad!

Beth's Spicy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Reviewed: Jul. 22, 2008

Delish! I gave it 4 stars as I did modify the recipe...added a little extra baking soda and a little baking powder after reading other reviews and eliminated the white sugar. They came out the perfect texture and were plenty sweet with just the brown sugar!

Homemade Black Bean Veggie Burgers

Reviewed: Jul. 22, 2008

I wouldn't really say this was a bad or good recipe. Probably won't make it again, I don't really see myself craving it. I do not eat meat and found it to be ok and my roomie is a meat eater and he disliked it, couldn't even choke down a whole patty. I would say it is worth a shot if it sounds good to you, just not our fancy!

Greek Lentil Soup (Fakes)

Reviewed: Dec. 12, 2007

We did not like this recipe at all. Zero taste- because it is healthy we forced it down like a protein shake.
