I fixed these for breakfast this morning as I hadn't been to the store yet, and was out of about everything, including eggs and all-purpose flour. Don't let the small amount of batter fool you -- they rise beautifully, and the recipe really will make 6. They're on the plain side, so serve with jam, etc.

Banana Pudding I

Reviewed: Jan. 17, 2009

I was looking for a recipe that didn't call for instant pudding, and this is a good one. Not quite sure why a 9x13 dish was called for...I was able to fit it quite nicely into a refrigerator dish with room to spare. Also, it's much better if allowed to sit in the refrigerator over night. Will definitely make again, but will reduce the number of cookies, and increase the number of bananas.

Pecan Tassies

Reviewed: Dec. 30, 2008

This is now our official family Christmas cookie. I follow the instructions exactly except that I use real butter instead of margarine. The dough is very sticky. Chilling it overnight helps make it easier to handle. The thicker the pastry is in the muffin cup, the easier it is to remove it from the pan intact after baking. Nonstick pans sprayed with cooking spray are a must.

Sweet, Sticky and Spicy Chicken

Reviewed: Dec. 20, 2007

my guys loved this one. Husband's only complaint was that there wasn't enough sauce. Must admit I cheated a bit -- my son's palate is a bit wimpy, so I used Heinz Chili Sauce instead of hot sauce. It was still yummy

Red Wine Flavored Beef

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2006

Yum! Thanks for sharing. I use a "california roast", and add some sauteed onions, a couple of bay leaves, a bit of thyme, and some canned mushrooms. I also use the whole envelope of onion soup mix.

Apple Crisp IV

Reviewed: Mar. 19, 2006

wonderful! a very easy apple crisp. My family likes more "apple" than "crisp", so I cut the "crisp" to 1/3 of what the recipe called for, and just sprinkled it on the top. Planning to make this one in a dutch oven on our next camping trip. Thanks for sharing!

Crispy Orange Beef

Reviewed: Nov. 19, 2005

This was quite good. Very quick and easy to prepare. It helps to partially freeze the beef before cutting it into strips. The only change I made to the recipe was that I went ahead and added an entire bag of the pre-cut broccoli instead of just 8 florets as garnish. We'll make it again.

Moist Cinnamon Rolls

Reviewed: Nov. 19, 2005

excellent! I don't own a bread machine, so I made the dough in my trusty kitchen-aid mixer. It didn't take as long to rise as the recipe called for. I did a normal 1-hour first rising, punched it down and let it rise for another half hour, then shaped it and let it rise in the pan for only about 1/2 hour. Will make this one again.

Cornish Game Hens with Garlic and Rosemary

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2004

Delicious! Served this for Christmas dinner with garlic mashed potatoes. Increased the sauce ingredients as several other reviewers suggested, which gave us enough to use as gravy. Will definitely fix again.

Mardi Gras King Cake

Reviewed: Feb. 21, 2004

Yummy! Especially good still slightly warm. Much better than the mail order one we got from the bakery in New Orleans. Will definitely make this one again next year. I made the batter, let it rise, and formed it into the rings the night before, then put it in the 'fridge. The next morning, I let it come to room temperature, rise, then baked them for the normal time.

Old Fashioned Coconut Cream Pie

Reviewed: Apr. 20, 2003

Thank you for providing a "launch pad" for reconstructing my Grandmother's coconut cream pie recipe. This one set up nicely -- I did cook the custard a little longer than recommended -- and has a nice coconut flavor. A little too much flour, though. Next time, I'll use egg yolks only and cut down on the flour. Also, plan to use meringue like Grandma did, instead of whipped cream to provide a little more contrast of textures. Added a couple of tablespoons of toasted coconut to the dry ingredients in the pie crust - yummy.

Soft Christmas Cookies

Reviewed: Jan. 3, 2003

This dough is very easy to work with. The cookies have a great taste, but are not as soft as I had hoped. The cookies do soften nicely when frosted and allowed to sit for a day (if you can keep the kids from eating them!)
