This is very good, even better if you add chopped pecans. I sprinkled the top with sugar and nutmeg. Next time I will bake it in a 9" X 13" pan instead of the deeper casserole. I think the crunchy sugary top is the best part.

Christmas Casserole Cookies I

Reviewed: Dec. 12, 2009

I would make these again. They're pretty good for the little effort required. Dough was crusty on the outside and gooey on the inside when it came out of the oven, but it all stirred together to form a sort of crumbly mixture. It is certainly easier to roll into balls if you wait until the dough is completely cool. I had a sticky mess when I started too soon and found it much easier when I followed the directions and waited for it to cool.

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Nut Muffins

Reviewed: Apr. 1, 2008

These are as good as chocolate cake any day. Certainly more a dessert than a bread.

Yeast Pancakes

Reviewed: Aug. 17, 2007

These are the best pancakes...even better if you substitute brown sugar for white and use 1/2 whole wheat flour. I added chopped nuts and wheat germ. Next time will try blue berries. Recipe made a lot, but the left over batter kept well refrigerated until the next day.

Sizzling Chicken Skewers

Reviewed: Sep. 25, 2006

The combination of ingredients struck me as odd, and the finished product tasted odd to me. Did like the peppers and pineapple. Would have been better with a dipping sauce. Won't make it again. I prefer the chicken satay recipe.

Cheeseburger Soup I

Reviewed: Mar. 14, 2006

Not a good idea. The soup might be better if made with ham or even chicken, but this recipe was a waste of good ingredients. Will not make it again.

Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes

Reviewed: Jan. 7, 2006

Really good! Will be a special occasions dish as we try to limit our fat intake as a rule. These are just loaded with fat but the taste makes them worth it. I used reduced fat sour cream and cream cheese, and only 1/2 stick of butter. Great convience having the potatoes done and off the stove keeping hot while the rest of dinner cooks. Now I need another slow cooker for the "slow cooker stuffing"

Coconut Pie

Reviewed: Jan. 7, 2006

I wish I could give this pie 4 1/2 stars. It's the easiest pie I ever made. Took it to a dish to pass dinner and it was gone before I got a piece. From all reports it tasted great. "Like a Mounds bar without the chocolate". I did toast the coconut before adding it to the recipe and I baked the pie for about 40 minutes before it was done. I would take off 1/2 Star for appearance. It just doesn't make a great presentation. I'll certainly make this again, probably the next dinner as I still have the other 1/2 of the bag of coconut to use.

Cheddar Baked Olives

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2005

I served these warm and they were not very good. Had sort of a soft doughy- gummy texture. The leftovers were better cold the next day, crisp, crunchy and tasty. If I make these again I would serve them cold. Recipe only made 24 olives

Sweet Potato Pie II

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2005

I have made this sweet potato pie 4 times. Followed the recipe, made no alterations or substitutions and the pies were great. Am no longer making pumpkin pie as this is so much better.

Calico Bean Casserole

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2005

This is a good basic recipe for an easy dish to take to a pot luck dinner. Just pour it into a crock pot to keep warm and it travels well. I cut the amount of sugar in 1/2 and always add a can of drained, cut green beans. Think you can use almost any combination of beans you have on hand and it is still good.

Slow Cooker Stuffing

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2005

Very good. Omitted the mushrooms and used 50% cornbread. The 4 1/2 Cups of broth called for in the recipe was just the right amount.

Duo-Chocolate Fudge

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2005

Easy to make and tastes good, but not as rich and chocolate as I hoped. I could not cut it into nice neat squares. The pieces tended to crumble and look messy.

Grandma's Secret Pie Crust

Reviewed: Sep. 19, 2005

OK, I just must admit this is a better pie crust recipe than the one I have been using for 40 years. It is also very easy to handle. Made an ample amount for 3 single crusts.

Peach Pie the Old Fashioned Two Crust Way

Reviewed: Sep. 19, 2005

A great pie. I used fresh, ripe peaches and made my own crust. I did not use the lemon juice. Other than that, I followed the recipe exactly and the pie was great.
