Momma's Wine Cake

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2009
I have never tried a wine cake, but it sounded interesting. This is very good! I'm eating some right now. I used cooking spray in the pan and used the cinnamon-sugar. This gave a nice crispy crust on it. (I also added 1 tsp. of cinnamon, just because we love cinnamon.) The crunchy crust in combination with the soft, tender center was a nice contrast. The wine added a very slight background flavor. This recipe could be the springboard for many variations. It really does scream for the addition of fruit & sauce of any favorite flavor, and I would highly recommend planning on adding it.

Cheesy Potatoes

Reviewed: Aug. 4, 2009
We really liked this recipe. Simple, easy, and flavorful. Just the way we like it. The only differences I did was to cube the potatoes instead of slice them (much easier to stir later), and to sprinke on the cheese after the stir instead of in the beginning, so it was nicely layered on the potatoes. This one will go into regular rotation!

Garlic Basil Mashed Potatoes

Reviewed: Jun. 23, 2009
Very good recipe! The flavor was very good. Not overpowering, just a yummy background. The only changes I made were to use fresh minced garlic rather than the powder, plus I added about 1/2 tsp. of horseradish. Since smooth, non-lumpy mashed potatoes are a sacrilege in our house, I combined the ingredients in a bowl, plopped them on top of the hot cooked potatoes and hand mashed. This one's going in my cookbook for regular rotation. Thanks for sharing it!

Pleasant Pork Chops

Reviewed: Aug. 26, 2008
This was excellent! This one's going on regular rotation! I made very slight changes: I went with a 75%/25% mixture of chicken broth and white wine. I warmed the mixture in the microzapper and let the bay leaf float in it. I used half butter and half bacon drippings to prevent burning. Quickly sweated the garlic and onion, spooned out from pan, leaving the flavored oils. I cooked the pork chops until an internal temp of 140 degrees (about 10 minutes), plated, and covered with foil and a towel while I finished the sauce. Then deglazed the pan with the broth mixture. Put the garlic mix back in and added the spices. I did reduce the amount of paprika to about 1/2 tsp, added the salt & pepper to taste at this point, added a big pinch of cayenne. Let it reduce, cooled, added the sour cream and served over mashed potatoes. Oh yeah, mashed potatoes are required! You don't want to lose all that sauce! Thanks for offering it to us!

Clone of a Cinnabon

Reviewed: Mar. 12, 2008
These were very good! The dough is dead-on. The filling did not amount to enough seepy-goodness for me, so I'll have to see how the other reviewers did it also for some hints. 2 hints for you all: First, use the BEST cinnamon you possibly can. If you can get it, Cinnabon sells jars of their cinnamon that you could use in this. I used Penzey's, and although it was very good, there just is NO COMPARISON to Cinnabon cinnamon. If I could buy cases of the stuff, I would be a very happy camper. Number two: the "secret" ingredient in the frosting that will make it match theirs almost perfectly, is the addition of a few drops of lemon juice. If you made the frosting and thought it was close, but something was missing, there it is. Try it!

Pork with Linguine and Blue Cheese Mushroom Sauce

Reviewed: Feb. 28, 2008
I really liked this recipe, but I think it would be even better with the addition of a splash of wine in the sauce. I also think this would be really good over rice. Alas, I won't get to try those suggestions. Even though my hubs likes blue cheese, he hated this recipe, and has threatened to make his beefaroni if I ever make it again. I'm not taking any chances!

Play Dough Cookies

Reviewed: Feb. 6, 2008
I made these last night, and they are very good. Nice mild taste. They look festive! Others mention they are like sugar cookies. I think they are much closer in taste to spritz cookies. I cooked them so they were very lightly crisp on the edges, but chewy on the inside. Just the way we like them. Very filling, though. I can do some major damage on a bag of Chips Ahoy, but could only do 3 of these when my snack-o-meter dinged. Do not try and make these without a good supply of ice cold milk. You'll tank me for that tip later!

Cheesecake Cupcakes

Reviewed: Jan. 5, 2006
This recipes is perfect for something quick to eat. I don't know how anyone could say anything bad about this recipe. I usually cut this recipe down to just making 10 cupcakes and I don't uss sour cream (the sour cream doesn't sound that good). I've made these cupcakes 3 times already and I've found that it's best not to let them brown on the top and make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before using!This isn't a dense cheese cake, it's on the creamy side so don't use the recipe if this isn't to your liking!

Miniature Cheesecakes

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2004
This didn't come close to my mother's cheese cake. The nutmeg really gave these mini's a bizarre taste and the wafers tasted funky too. The one good thing about this recipe was that the texture was just right.

This was the best Meringue I ever made! The last time I made meringue it came out flat like icing. I'll be sure to use this recipe again.

White Chili with Ground Turkey

Reviewed: Oct. 28, 2002
This was the most awful recipe! I tried it twice and still have no idea why you need to add 5 cups of chicken broth at the end. It should be called turkey chili soup!!! Sorry.
