Never made butter icing before. This was so simple to make and tasted good. Used butter only as didn't have any shortening. Was difficult to spread so will add more liquid next time and slighlty less sugar as it was a tad too sugary. 1/4 of the recipe filled a 9inch cake with no topping.

These cookies are easy to make and very tasty- i hardly got a chance to eat them because my sister and dad ate them all

I made this for a starter with a family meal and everyone loved it!

Used my basic recipe for the basis to this but used the flavourings and it was oh, so yummy! Made cardamon extract by soaking about 5/6 crushed green cardamons in hot water and added this. Will use this as an idea again.

Didn't make the dough (used "Ricardo's Pizza Crust" recipe) as we didn't have any flat beer - tbh we never have any left over beer in! The sauce was simple and easy to make with the ingredients I have in. Used dried oregano and less tomato puree (about 2 tablespoons. Blended it to give it a smooth texture which we prefer and used the leftovers (as half the recipe made too much for one pizza) for the base of a pasta sauce the next day. Yummy!

This is the first pizza base recipe I have tried to make from scratch in my bread machine and it was so easy to do, won't try another. Cut the sugar down to 1.5 tablespoons as recommended and didn't find it too sweet but made the crusts tasty. Also used 6g yeast as that is the size packets you get here in the UK, rose well. Topped with the sauce from the "Pizza Sauce and Dough" recipe, mozzarella, chili peppers and mixed veggies which worked really well. Came out slightly soggy in the centre of the base using a baking (cookie?) tray so have invested in a pizza stone and will blind bake for 5-8 mins prior to topping. Brushed the edges with olive oil before baking and came out lovely, golden and crisp.

easy and very tastey add a desert spoon of tomato puree but really good without

This was excellent. I made it with 3 cans of clams and it was really too many - 2 cans probably would have been fine. I also added 2 stalks celery chopped up, and 3 cloves crushed garlic. Next time I will probably also add a bay leaf or two, and possibly fill the clam stock to 3 cups with white wine instead of regular water. I simmerred with the lid off - this lead to thicker consitency than I think I would have gotten with the lid on. I think this would make an excellent base recipe for any chowder. Next time, I will try it with fresh calamari and large shrimp.

This was tough to make in a slow cooker. Required a lot of attention to keep the potatoes and cheese from congealing together. Sort of defeats the "set it and forget it" recipes that makes the slow cooker so useful.

good recipe,, but to add a little more flavour add a tea spoon of dried mixed herbs to the mince beef,, and if you want a hotter flavour a few diced chilles

Great. A really authentic flavour and virtually calorie free when made with fat free yoghurt. Made a massive quantity Even though I only made a third.

These were a real surprise. It's the first time I've done any baking without sugar so I had my doubts but these were great. They held together beautifully (no egg required )and were a really tasty guilt-free treat, that I'm sure I'll be making again and again. I used 2 tsp of cinammon and I definitely think some spice is required. I used a mix of dates, prunes and apricots simply because I didn't have enough dates. As long as the bananas are over ripe and therefore sweet I don't think it matters too much what type of dried fruit you use.

Very tasty and a nice way to use up some roasted pumpkin I had left over. I used cinammon instead of nutmeg and 1/4 tsp of salt was more than enough. If you're not dousing them in syrup or using tinned s.p or pumpkin I'd add another tbsp of sugar to the mix.
