Not a bad recipe. I did adjust it a bit and used 1/2 cup each sour cream, mayo, and buttermilk. It had a pretty good flavor, although I found the dill to be a bit too strong for my personal preference. I would make it again though and reduce the dill and increase the garlic and onion powders. Definitely a good base recipe for Ranch dressing that you can play around with and personalize to your own liking and so much better than the bottled stuff in the stores.

I love Ranch dressing, but am not crazy about the bottled, mass-produced stuff and have been looking for a good recipe to make at home. Unfortunately, this wasn't it. To me this did not taste anything like a Ranch dressing. I made the recipe as is and all I could taste was the Worcestershire Sauce, even after letting it sit awhile to let the flavors blend...I even tried adding more buttermilk, spices, garlic powder and onion powder and it was still way too overpowering with the taste of Worcestershire. The recipe called for 1 tablespoon of it, but I wonder if it shouldn't read as 1 teaspoon. Also, the oregano and parmesan cheese didn't seem to blend very well with the rest of the ingredients. To me it was more like a twist on Caesar dressing than Ranch dressing. Sorry, I just wasn't impressed with this one.

The recipe as is, is okay, but I didn't really think it tasted like an eclair. I experimented a bit and made some variations which I think really improved on it and resulted in an eclair taste. Instead of using graham crackers I used crushed vanilla wafers for the bottom and middle layers. The top layer I used crushed chocolate wafers. For the filling I only used 2 cups of milk as it made the filling a little more thicker and flavorful. I folded in the Cool Whip after I thoroughly mixed the milk and pudding together. I used a milk chocolate frosting on top, but only used about 1/2 of the container so it would just have a thin layer on top and like other reviewers microwaved it for about 30 seconds so it became a glaze and was easy to pour and spread. It was so much better. Both times I did use the Cool Whip, but next time I will use my homemade whipped cream as I prefer it to Cool Whip and I think will enhance the flavor even more.
