I had to try this one... I love chocolate! Love every ingredient used to make this. The consistency was closest to a moist in the center brownie. I just thought that the recipe was missing something in the presentation aspect. I sprinkled some powdered sugar and cocoa powder and that helped quite a bit. It is different but it is also very good and very rich.

French Baguettes

Reviewed: Jan. 25, 2009

Delicious! My family has never finished up loaves of bread within minutes before. They turned out beautifully. My shaping skills could improve some but hey, they were gone so fast I barely got enough time to take a picture. I followed the recipe except for using the egg white instead of the egg yolk. Fantastic!

Shrimp Scampi Bake

Reviewed: Jan. 25, 2009

This was really good and easy. I increased the garlic, and the parsley. I decreased the butter by 1/4 cup. Served over Linguine. I baked for only 10 minutes. It was plenty of time.

Grandma's Secret Pie Crust

Reviewed: Jan. 24, 2009

Wow! This recipe is excellent. The texture was great to work with and although I wasn't really sure what to make of the vinegar I'm glad that I didn't chicken out because otherwise I would have missed out on this great discovery. It was flaky and delicious. Thank you Felicia.

Bread Pudding Apple Pie

Reviewed: Jan. 24, 2009

I have to admit that I was a little skeptical of this recipe. It was intriguing however because of the combination of apple pie and bread pudding. Two desserts that I enjoy greatly. I used cinnamon apple sauce and added 1/8 tsp. allspice. It was very good. Different because it is more firm like a previous review mentioned, firmer. But still very tasty. I made the crust from this site and it was a great compliment. I used Grandma's Secret Pie Crust recipe.

Slow Cooker Pulled Pork

Reviewed: Jan. 24, 2009

I seasoned my pork with salt, pepper, garlic powder and some Montreal Seasoning. Let it marinade in the fridge for 2 days (not on purpose), just running as usual. I actually had a big piece, about 5 1/2 lbs., so I doubled the amount of root beer. I cooked it for about 6 hours and drained it and added a 19 oz. bottle of Jack Daniels BBQ sauce and one of Sweet Baby Ray's. I got the smoky taste of the JD and the Sweetness of the SBJ. It was just wonderful! This one will be added to the rotation for sure! Thank you Lori.

Grilled Asparagus

Reviewed: Jan. 13, 2009

Wonderful and quick way to make Asparagus. Here is how I did this. I added the Olive oil (EVOO), salt, freshly ground pepper and a little bit of K.C. Masterpiece Ginger Teriyaki marinade and the Asparagus in a zipploc bag. Transferred it to a piece of heavy duty foil and folded it so that it would not leak. I folded another piece of foil to the other side just for extra precaution. I grilled it for about 3-4 minutes on the top wrack of my outdoor grill.

Smooth and Creamy Peanut Butter Pie

Reviewed: Jan. 13, 2009

Chocolate and peanut butter! Yummy. I made no changes with this one. My oldest daughter gets the credit for helping and decorating. I just made suggestions. She used Butterfingers and Heath bars for the decorations. As for the rating, it was not my alone either. They rated it too.

Japanese Chicken Wings

Reviewed: Jan. 13, 2009

Wow! There are are some recipes that will be just above the rest and are "remarkable". That is how I feel about this one. It is that good IMO. I found it supper easy to make. I did add a bit or salt and freshly ground black pepper to the flour. I also doubled the sauce so that I could baste it during the baking. I had to use 2 eggs because one wasn't enough for the amount of wings I had. This one is a keeper! Thx!

Mocha Chip Bundt Cake

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2009

Decadent and Delicious. A hit! Not sure if it was my oven but 1 hour was almost too long, so next time I'll try to leave it in 55 minutes and check on it.

Guy Approved Meatloaf

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2009

I finally found a Meatloaf that my kids will eat. My husband who doesn't care for Meatloaf either said that it was very good. I did bake the bacon in a separate foil lined cookie sheet for about 15 minutes and then removed it from the oven and put on paper towel lined dish to drain some of the excess fat. Towards the last 15 minutes of baking I poured some barbecue sauce over it and layered the bacon on top. It was just a little greasy but most had already drained.

Salsa Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 2, 2009

I've found a great new way to cook chicken that not only is delicious but also fast and easy. Before I left for work on Tuesday I put the chicken brests in a Ziploc bag with the juice from a can of Rotel and the taco seasoning. Put this in the fridge and left it to marinate. Got home and just completed the dish. I mixed the rotel contents that were left in the can with the salsa. It had a lot of flavor and my biggest surprise was how much my kids who are picky eaters enjoyed it and complemented me. Thank you Faye.

Southern as You Can Get Collard Greens

Reviewed: Jan. 1, 2009

So good. Very comforting. I omitted the water and the vinegar. I sauteed half an onion, 3 cloves of minced garlic in about 2 tbs. of extra virgin Olive Oil, added 3 strips of bacon, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Cooked on low for about 2 hours. Great flavor.

Golden Crescent Rolls

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2008

These were a delight. I was so busy when I made it that I just let them rise for longer than stated but it was just fine. Excellent. I'm not sure that it makes it better or not to sit rising/resting longer but they turned out light and yummy. Not so much like a crescent (that is more the shape) but a great roll. The butter in the middle adds a lot to it. Thank you Mike.

Libby's® Pumpkin Cranberry Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2008

Excellent. Tasty and moist. I used 1/2 cup of oil and 1/2 cup applesauce to sub for the 1 cup of oil. I also added just a dash of freshly grated nutmeg. I put them into mini loaves and gave them as gifts to friends.
