Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting

Reviewed: Jul. 3, 2008
I used this with the Frosted Banana Bar recipe on this site. It is very good, but I needed to use at least twice as much of the milk the recipe calls for to get the consistency that I was looking for.

Frosted Banana Bars

Reviewed: Jul. 3, 2008
More like a cake than a bar, but absolutely delicious nonetheless! Who would have thought that one of my favorite cakes would turn out to be a banana cake. The Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting recipe on this site complimented this recipe well.

Cream of Broccoli Soup I

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2008
Wow! This is fantastic!! There was none leftover to take a picture of! In place of the water, I used one 14.5 oz. can of chicken broth, and one 14.5 oz. can of vegetable broth. I also used one cup of half and half and 1 1/2 cups 2% milk, and mixed about one cup of cheese right into the soup instead of using it as garnish. I don't care that it is supposed to be hot and humid, I am making this soup again this weekend!

Cream Cheese Frosting II

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2008
This is the best cream cheese frosting recipe ever! Don't change a thing! After using this frosting on whatever treat I am making, I always make sure I scrape a spatula around the sides, and that is just for me (which I eat right there in the kitchen)! I have used this with Self-Filled Cupcakes I and Sam's Famous Carrot Cake.

Self-Filled Cupcakes I

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2008
OMG! These were incredible!! Definitely makes 24 (I'm not admitting how many I ate!). I filled the cupcake liners a little more than halfway, used a tablespoon of filling in each, then topped with just enough batter to cover the filling (about a tablespoon). I covered the lower rack in the oven with tin foil, just in case they overflowed, but they didn't. Frosted with Cream Cheese Frosting II. They are fantastic! I will never make plain cupcakes again.

Bacon Wrapped Shrimp

Reviewed: May 19, 2008
If I don't have time to marinate shrimp, this is the next best thing! Tip: cut bacon slices in half, trim the excess fat, then wrap each shrimp in a half slice of bacon (this will help you get crispier bacon without having to precook it). Also, we always brush the shrimp with barbeque sauce (Sweet Baby Ray's) while they are on the grill. Gives them just a hint of something special!

Smooth Sweet Tea

Reviewed: May 15, 2008
Iced Tea has always been a staple for me in the spring and summer months, even though I have always hated that bitter aftertaste. Well, the pinch of baking soda takes care of that! Thank you, thank you for making my favorite drink even better! I add fresh lemon slices to the pitcher (and sometimes lime slices, too).

Unbelievable Chicken

Reviewed: May 12, 2008
I make this chicken 3 or 4 times per month! I just love it!! I typically don't use all of the olive oil, and I always cut the chicken breasts into cubes prior to marinating. Marinate the cubes 4 to 5 hours, thread them onto skewers, boil the marinade to use for basting, and grill away! The only problem I have ever had with this recipe is not making enough!

Marinated Grilled Shrimp

Reviewed: May 5, 2008
When I first saw this recipe, the tomato sauce in the ingredients list really threw me, but with all the wonderful reviews I decided to try it anyway, and I'm so glad! It's fantastic! Just the right amount of heat from the cayenne, and wonderful flavor. Served with garlic rice and sauteed green beans. Thank you!

Spinach Dip with Water Chestnuts

Reviewed: May 5, 2008
Spinach dip is one of my favorites, and this was my first time making it! Used 1 cup mayo, 1 cup sour cream, and 1/2 cup cream cheese. Because it was just me and my BF, I decided to make open faced bagel sandwiches with Everything bagels, melted Cooper Sharp cheese, a layer of spinach dip, sliced Roma tomatoes, and a sprinkling of fresh ground pepper. So yummy!

Chocolate Oil Cake

Reviewed: Apr. 26, 2008
I'm giving this a 3 star for taste. It's a good chocolate cake. However, I attempted to bake it in 2 9-inch rounds. I was trying to make a chocolate layer cake. I buttered and cocoa-ed the pans. Unfortunately they stuck badly and werent usable (although my family enjoyed my "mistake").

Grilled Garlic and Herb Shrimp

Reviewed: Apr. 24, 2008
These were delicious! A delicate marinade that enhanced the flavor of shrimp. The only changes I made were to use fresh basil, and boil the remaining marinade (with 1 T. butter) for basting on the grill. Served with garlic butter rice, and sauteed zucchini for the most delicious meal so far this week. I will definitely use this receipe again!

Grilled Shrimp and Apple Skewers

Reviewed: Apr. 24, 2008
These shrimp were so tasty! I don't like hot fruit, so I did not use the apples on the skewers, but didn't want to lose out on the apple flavor, so I added 1.5 T. of applesauce to the marinade (apple juice works, too), and used brown sugar instead of white. Let the shrimp marinate 2 hours, threaded them onto skewers, boiled the marinade 3 minutes to use for basting, and they were out of this world! I served them with garlic butter rice and sauteed zucchini.... delicious, delicious dinner!

Chorizo and Lentil Stew

Reviewed: Apr. 24, 2008
This stew is fabulous! The flavors are complimentary, and not overpowering. My local store did not have bulk chorizo, so I used a 1 lb. package of chorizo links, removed the casings, browned and sliced 'em. I may actually use 1.5 lbs. next time, just to have a little more meat. I also used chicken broth instead of water, which made the stew almost too salty, so reduced sodium broth is probably the way to go. My BF was a little turned off by the lentils, so I may even try a different bean next time, just to change it up a little (an 8 or 16 bean blend would probably be nice). All in all, a fantastic recipe that will definitely be at the top of my soup list. UPDATE: I made this again, doubled the chorizo, and used a 13 bean blend in place of just lentils. Love it, love it, love it!

Brooke's Best Bombshell Brownies

Reviewed: Apr. 21, 2008
I never thought that I would be able to make delicious brownies from scratch, but thanks to Brooke, I have! These are fantastic! Moist, fudge-y, dense ... you just can't ask for anything more from a brownie. I did not use the chocolate chips (personal preference), and I can't wait to try them with walnuts! It's "bye, bye" to the boxed stuff! This is now my go-to brownie recipe. Fabulous! UPDATE: I made them again with walnuts ... Fantastic! Love 'em!!

Lemon Poppy Seed Loaf

Reviewed: Apr. 21, 2008
Moist and lemon-y ... exactly what I was looking for! I wanted a distinct lemon flavor, so after reading other reviews, I used the zest of 3 large lemons, along with their juice (equalling almost 1 cup of lemon juice). I also dusted the bottom of my pans with white sugar, so that they would have a sweet crust. My loaves were perfectly done in 40 minutes, so you might want to keep an eye on them towards the end of baking. A fantastic recipe! Thank you, thank you!

Buttermilk Pound Cake II

Reviewed: Apr. 21, 2008
Man, do I love pound cake! This was fantastic!! Ate it plain, ate it with berries, ate it with ice cream ... it was great with everything! Used fresh lemon juice because I didn't have any extract, and I dusted the bottom of my bundt pan with sugar to get a crusty top. Definitely recommended.

Apple Pie by Grandma Ople

Reviewed: Apr. 21, 2008
This was my first attempt at apple pie, and it was easy and delicious! Used McIntosh apples at the suggestion of the produce guy in the supermarket, and did not pour the sugar mixture over the crust, although next time I definitely will .. I was just too afraid of spilling to try it the first time I was making it. Wonderful, wonderful pie!

Cheesy Garlic Bread

Reviewed: Apr. 18, 2008
Wonderful garlic bread! Used butter, and gently boiled it with the minced garlic prior to spreading it on the bread. Used shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Yum!!
