Bagels II

Reviewed: Dec. 23, 2007
I've never made bagels before so I wasn't sure what to expect. These came out exactly the way a bagel should taste - texture and all. I added a bit more salt to the recipe, put about a tsp of baking soda into the boiling water along with honey instead of sugar. I also baked the bagels on a stone. Excellent!

Tomato and Garlic Pasta

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2007
I just made this and had to rate it right away. This is fantastic! I didn't have any parm on hand so i omitted it. i was concerned that w/o the cheese it would be lacking in flavor, but it is not at all. I was looking for a recipe to duplicate something that i had at a restaurant and this matches it exactly. (of course at the restaurant it cost $18 rather than the $3 to make it myself!)

One Bowl Chocolate Cake III

Reviewed: Jan. 9, 2007
This is the first chocolate cake from scratch that i've found to be excellent. i used soy-milk to make it non-dairy with no problem. i frosted it with a non-dairy whipped topping that i mixed together with crushed chocolate sandwich cookies.

Carrot Cake XI

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
i love this recipe and so do all of my guests. i top it with a crumb topping instead of frosting when i use it as a cake, or i often don't top it at all and serve it as a side dish. i never thought i could like carrot cake, but this recipe changed my view!

Brownie Biscotti

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
tasted and looked just like biscotti. would be very good with coffee since it's not too sweet. if you're looking for something really chocolately, though, this is not it. make regular brownies instead.

Fortune Cookies I

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
these looked and tasted very good. it was a little hard to get the little papers out of some of the cookies, but everybody liked them and thought they were cute. don't think we'll be doing this any time soon though because the process was very tedious and time consuming since we could only do about 3 at a time. you really have to work fast with these otherwise the cookie will crack as you're forming it.

One-Hundred-One-Year-Old Pastry Recipe

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
this isn't exactly great for flakey pastry puff kind of dough, but it's really good for the bottom of savory pies. i use it often.

Cajun Spice Seasoning Mix in a Jar

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
This is great! I ommit the salt and just add some to taste to whatever i'm making. this goes really well on cut-up sweet potatoes baked until crispy.

Knishes

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
This was OK, but the dough wasn't like a real knish that you'd get at a kosher deli. i prefer a "doughier" dough and this was a little harder.

Caramel Frosting V

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
i never made real frosting before - I couldn't believe this actually worked. I let the mixture cool in the fridge for about an hour. it actually got hard, but i was able to whip it up with a hand mixer with no problem. i did change the recipe a bit: i used non-dairy whipping cream and only about 1.5 cups of brown sugar (coudln't get myself to use a pound!). probably would've been more caramely if i used all of the sugar, but it was still very good.

Vanilla Brownies

AWESOME! I make these all the time and always include the chocolate chips. they're probably also good with walnuts or pecans.

Crispy and Creamy Doughnuts

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
I never made doughnuts before and these were so easy and very good. I made the dough the day before i needed the doughnuts, let it sit for 1/2-1 hour and then cut them. i let them rise in the fridge for abt 24 hours, then put them in the oven on a low setting for about 10 minutes. they rose a little bit more and got even bigger in the oil. instead of using the glaze, i filled half with jelly and half with caramel and then rolled them in powdered sugar. I still prefer the doughnuts out of the doughnut shop, but for a homemade treat, they're great. we were able to make about 50 medium sized doughnuts (no doughnut holes)

Chewy Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
i served these at a party and EVERYBODY loved them (toddlers and adults alike). only change i made was to leave out 1/2 cup of oatmeal. they weren't exactly chewy, but they were much softer than the standard cookie. this is definitely going to be my standard oatmeal chocolate chip recipe.

Cinnamon Rolls I

Reviewed: Dec. 24, 2006
pretty good. i didn't expect them to actually rise in the fridge, but they did and then they got even bigger in the oven! i poured a lot of extra cinnamon/sugar/butter mixture over the buns before baking. after they were done, i drizzled a very basic icing on the top (1-3 tablespoons of milk with a cup of powdered sugar). the only problem is that after a couple of days they got a little stale.

I typically don't like Coquito but made this recipe for my husband- I loved it! My pan did scorch however (much to my surprise)... but I don't have a double boiler. Oh well- yummy yummy!
