Cake Balls
Delicious! The recipe is very easy to make, but time consuming. It would make a great rainy day project. I used devil's food cake mix, and made my own cream cheese frosting (whipped together 8oz. cream cheese, 1/4 c. butter, 1 c. powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract). I also melted down a few oz. of Trader Joe's 72% bittersweet chocolate for the outside chocolate coating, instead of confectioners coating, and it was delicious. I melted the chocolate in the microwave, instead of a double boiler.

Whipped Shortbread Cookies
These cookies taste delicious, but completely crumble when I try to pick them up. They certainly 'melt in your mouth'. Perhaps I should have used 2 cups of flour like some other reviewers did. Also, my cookies are much flatter than the photo. Not very photogenic. I followed the recipe exactly, except I added 1 tsp. of almond extract to the batter. I cannot imagine what went wrong here....

Sirloin Steak Dianne
Although the recipe was a bit more time consuming than I planned for (about 1 hour total from start to finish, including all prep work), it was worth it. My family raved about the sauce. Also..who knew sirloin steak could be so good? I served it with mashed potatoes and roasted asparagus. This recipe makes lots of extra sauce, so make a side dish that will help use up the sauce (mashed potatoes were perfect)...you will not want to waste it!
