Not what I expect at all! I followed the recipe to the letter, except I don't have a double broiler so I melted the chocolate in a copper pot on low heat stirring constantly. The consistency was too oily and falling apart like pudding more than cake. I wanted a really dense heavy recipe and this did not turn out well at all. The taste was delicious, that was about it. I'd use less butter next time or try a different recipe.

Tie-Dyed Mini Cupcakes

Reviewed: Oct. 1, 2009

I made these regular size and baked them for about 20-22 minutes instead. I threw in some chocolate chips which was smart because these don't have much flavor. They came out a little heavy- more like muffins so next time I won't use as much shortening. Pretty basic. Made about 20 small regular size cupcakes. Oh and I used a chocolate ganache instead for halloween and decorated with candy corn.

Red Velvet Cake

Reviewed: Jun. 25, 2009

I really didn't like it; I think it had too much baking powder and wasn't nearly what I had hoped for. It's moist but maybe I just don't like red velvet cakes.

Way too dry. Not at all what a King's cake should be.

Love it love it love it. Will make it again and again. Great if you slice the fennel on a mandolin.

Sangria! Sangria!

Reviewed: Jul. 22, 2008

I actually only used half a can of pink lemonade and just the fruit, with one more orange in it. Turned out very very sweet and citrus-y and kept for days.

Perfect taste. I sprinkled cinnamon on the top and maybe i'll add an extra banana next time.

No Bake Chocolate Oat Bars

Reviewed: Jun. 13, 2007

THESE ARE AMAZING!!!! The only reason for 4 stars is that they are quite greasy with all that butter so i halved the butter and added milk instead- turned out a lot better and still clumped perfectly. There's also really no need to grease the pan either. Great taste, gotta make these for all those cookie moments!

German Chocolate Cake III

Reviewed: Jun. 10, 2007

I loved this cake! I did the half brown/half white sugar mix and i added some Bacardi rum and plain lowfat yogurt to keep it moist longer. couldn't have turned out better!
