This recipe was disappointing. It wasn't BAD, as such, just not good. It seems to be missing something, some flavor or spice that I can't put my finger on. My husband and I both were expecting something somewhat sweeter, for some reason. I'm not going to throw this away...it's not that bad. I'll serve it for company and whomever likes it will get to take it home :~D I won't be making this one again, because I'm sure there's something better out there. Oh, FYI, I did use all beef (90% lean) and followed the directions and amounts as presented, making no changes.

Very easy, very good bread. Goes together fast and the flavor is phenomenal. I added my own spices (cinnamon,nutmeg, and vanilla)and some walnuts. This will be my "go to" banana bread recipe from now on.

Best shortcake I've ever had, hands down. And I've been searching! I didn't bother with the fruit or cream part of this recipe because I already make my own the way I like it. Also, like other reviewers, I just used whole milk with a splash of half and half to cut the fat a little bit and they were still great. I also patted them into round biscuits (not too much handling, still) and they were the perfect size/shape for splitting and serving. I think grating the butter makes this recipe what it is...definitely needs to be a frozen or at least SUPER cold stick, though! At the end, I cut the last stub of butter into small chunks with a sharp knife...I was afraid of grating my fingers :~) Try this one; you won't be sorry you did.
