Pumpkin Cookies V

Reviewed: Sep. 28, 2009
I will be making these again. A tip..these cookies dont spread on their own so you need to use your fingers or a spoon to spread them out before cooking. My first batch was cooked on the bottom and still batter on the top. I just drizzled the frosting and it added just the right amount of sweetness. I also added cloves and nutmeg as personal preference. Everyone loved how light and moist they were. I made a double batch, 116 cookies and they didnt last 24 hours. One more note, my oven usually bakes like the instructions state but my cookies needed at least 13 minutes to set up/ A great breakfast cookie also

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough + Cupcake = The BEST Cupcake. Ever.

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2009
I'm not sure what the hype is about. They are good, but not what I expected. I made them exactly as stated. I thought it would taste like biting into a cookie hidden in a cupcake but chocolate chips added to the cupcake might have been just as good. I would probably make them again. They are good! Just not something amazing and different.

Rich Chocolate Frosting

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2009
I won't buy canned again. I never attempted or thought to make my own...just seemed easier to buy it but this has changed my mind. It's even fool proof. I started making it when I remembered that I had wanted to half the recipe. I ended up using 4 sticks of butter, 5 cups powdered sugar, 1.5 cups cocoa, vanilla and some milk. Still tasted great. More like milk chocolate which was an even bigger hit.

Frosted Banana Bars

Reviewed: Aug. 28, 2009
AWSOME! ONLY THING I DID DIFFERENT WAS TO MAKE MY OWN FROSTING (I HATE ANYTHING PROCESSED) I USED 2 CUPS POWDERED SUGAR 1/2 CREAM CHEESE 1/2 STICK OF BUTTER APX. 1/4 C MILK. I MELTED BUTTER AND CREAM CHEESE IN MICROWAVE APX. 45 SECONDS AND ADDED TO THIS THE SUGAR AND THEN ADD MILK TO KEEP IT SLIGHTLY STIFF AND CUT A SMALL CORNOR OFF OF A SANDWICH BAG AND FILLED IT WITH THE FROSTING AND JUST DRIZZLED OR PIPED THE FROSTING ON IN A SQUIGGLY DESIGN IT LOOKS KIND OF FANCY AND DIFFERENT THAN FROSTING JUST SPREADED

Chocolate Zucchini Sheet Cake

Reviewed: Aug. 28, 2009
AWSOME CAKE I HAVE BEEN OFFERED MONEY TO MAKE THIS FOR PEOPLE...THE TRICK TO MAKING THE CAKE NOT TO SOGGY IS TO DRAIN THE ZUCCHINI IN A STRAINER AFTER YOU HAVE PROCESSED IT IN THE FOOD CHOPPER I HAVE ALSO SUBED THE MILK IN THE CAKE WITH SOUR CREAM AND USE BUTTER INSTEAD OF OIL AND IT'S JUST AS AWESOME. AND I USE REGULAR WHOLE MILK IN THE FROSTING GREAT WAY TO USE UP THOSE FAT ZUCCHINI'S IN THE GARDEN.

Restaurant Style Chicken Nachos

Reviewed: Aug. 25, 2009
I love this recipe! I made it for my bf's dad for his birthday and he just loved it. I substitute canned chicken (easier when you're in a fix) and I also layer the nachos with some nacho cheese sauce as well as shredded cheese. I find that if I cook most of the juice out of the chicken/salsa mixture, the nachos don't get soggy.

Sweet Dinner Rolls

Reviewed: Jul. 11, 2009
This is a great, basic roll recipe. I like that it uses all purpose flour because I can never seem to remember to buy bread flour. It's also nice to not need one more item to take up space in my already small home. I don't use a bread machine when I make this. I set the eggs out for a couple hours to warm. Then I place the warm water, warm milk and sugar in a bowl. Dissolve the sugar and then add the yeast and let it proof. Then I add the eggs, butter, salt and flour. Mix well with my hands and put it in a greased bowl, turning once to coat, then cover with towel and let it rise. After one hour (or after it doubles) I punch it down and roll into three small balls per muffin slot and make cloverleaf rolls. I let them rise another hour and then bake. Yummy and they go really fast around here so I bake a double batch which gives me approx. 48 cloverleaf rolls.

Too Much Chocolate Cake

Reviewed: Jun. 13, 2009
Great taste for such an easy recipe. Will make this again without a doubt. Anone who rated it below a 5 either screwed it up or didn't bake it long enough. I baked at 350 degrees for 65 minutes, checking it at 50 minutes with a toothpick every 5 minutes til done(:

Coconut Cream Cake I

Reviewed: May 26, 2009
This was an awesome cake recipe. I did use coconut milk instead of cream because some people eating it are watching their sugars. I ended up tossing about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the sauce out because it stopped seeping in and was just running to the edges. The cake was still super moist but not horribly soggy (except one corner peice) Normally I bring leftovers home from BBQ's but not this time. I even have my second one in the fridge right now for my Mom to try. If you love coconut, you'll love this cake. Superb! Would love to try it with banana cake or chocolate cake :)

Navajo Fry Bread II

Reviewed: Feb. 1, 2009
With some alterations, this was a great recipe. As per the other reviewers, I cut the salt to two teaspoons. I also cut the milk to 2 1/4 cups, and added about a half cup of flour as I formed the balls. This went great with Spanish rice and spicy beef with onions. I will make again. Note, though, that this makes a LOT of bread.

Julia's Hot Cross Buns

Reviewed: Jan. 29, 2009
I have to say I made this twice in 2 days and it turned out different both time-better the second time. Excellent both time first time more like bread second time more like buns I made these for my daughter for school for Sts. Day and they were a hit. Instead of candied fruit I used dried cranberries and they turned out great. I also mixed into the powdered sugar apx. 1 T. real butter...they were good either cold or warmed in the microwave for 45 secs. will do again I made them in my bread maker and took them out after the 2nd rise step and rolled into balls and placed on greased cookie sheet and let them rise covered on top of the stove while the oven warmed up for apx. 45 minutes...the second rise in the bread maker made them lighter and more like buns. Will make again, and again

Corn Tortillas

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2009
I made this last week according to directions. They came out wonderful. If you are having problem with them sticking then add your water slowly to the masa slowly as you mix. Just sa it becomes hard to stir with a spoon, use your hands to mis and mix in just enough water to hold it together adn kneed it a bit. It should no longer stick to your hands, if it does add sprinkle a tad more masa on the ball of dough and kneed a bit more. If you are having trouble with it sticking while rolling or pressing out, then place a ball of dough inbetween 2 pieces of plastic wrap, press, then slowly peel off the plastic wrap. This is how i did it and it works wonderfully. Last night I made them again and added a little salt to the mix, pressed them, then deep fried them into the shape of a bowl for my chili. The kids loved them, and I didnt have bowls to wash! Just carefully place a pressed tortilla into the hot oil and hold a metal ladle down in the center of it as it fries. Pretty simple, and quite tasty!!! You can also make the dough just a little stiffer and use a pizza cutter to make your own fritos!!! they went well with the chili. I LOVE THIS RECIPE!

Peppy's Pita Bread

Reviewed: Jan. 20, 2009
this was awsome! The only change i made was I fried them instead of baking them. I wanted more ofa flat bread instead of a pocket. I fried them in a TBS. of olive oil in my cast iron skillet till the bubbles browned on then flipped thme over. Removed them and placed them on a paper towel and flattened them down with a plate on top. The only problem i had was i didnt make enough. I filled them with a chicken salad and my boys devoured them. Thank You for this recipe!

I followed this recipe to tee except I just couldn't get the thought of butter rum out of my head so I added rum soaked raisins. This was the best bread pudding I have ever had. I added a dollup od whipped cream to the top and devoured it!!! Thank you for this recipe.

Yummy Pikelets

Reviewed: Jan. 16, 2009
they were good. i used my homemade strawberry rhubarb jam and whipped cream. For me it was just a small heavy pancake. It was good. Nothing to write home about. I followed the recipe to the note. It just isn't fair to rate something unless you do!!! I did find that the thinner I made the batter, the better we liked them. I would make it again because they are just so easy.

Cream Cheese Candies

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2008
I have had this same recipe for over 20 years. My kids beg me to make these very christmas! I roll them in small balls,, dip the balls in red and green sugar, then flatten with a fork. I read that some people had trouble with drying... try using food coloring paste instead of drops. the liquid is just enough to hamper drying time. Hope this helps.
