Frozen Strawberry Lemonade

Reviewed on Jun. 8, 2009 by Air force wife 
I love this recipe! I am two months pregnant and the only thing that sounds good is Panera's frozen lemonade. This is an excellent homemade alternative. I used frozen strawberries. Definite keeper because it makes a great summer drink.

Taco Pizza

Reviewed on May 4, 2009 by Air force wife 
Very good pizza! I must admit that I did use another pizza crust - Jay's Signature Pizza Crust, a recipe from this site, because I only wanted to make one pizza since it is only my husband and I. I cut the cayenne pepper in half in fear that it may be too much spice for us. Once I rolled out the dough, I put some olive oil and garlic powder on it and pre-baked it for 5 minutes. I topped the pizza with lettuce, tomato and crushed Doritos after it was done baking.

Sturdy Whipped Cream Frosting

Reviewed on May 1, 2009 by Tulips*n*Truffles 
I try so very hard to not give low ratings. :-( This turned out just awful for me! Like others, my frosting is not stable at all - not even close! I think if I'd have whipped it any more, it might have turned to butter - it got to stiff peaks - but after it sits for literally 30 seconds, it's soft and won't hold its shape again. I started with ice cold cream - had it in the freezer for 20 minutes before I began - and ice cold bowl and beaters. Room temperature cream cheese. The flavor is alright, but really quite bitter for some reason. New cream cheese, new cream. IF I were to make this again, which I just can't imagine doing, I'd add at least a cup of powdered sugar to the finished frosting to help give it some body; otherwise, I have cupcakes literally dripping with frosting. I honestly don't even think it would do well on a sheet cake. :-( I have no clue how those who took pictures of this frosting actually have any height...
