Featured Cook


Cooking Level: Expert

Home Town: Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina, USA
About me:
I'm a college student studying Restaurant Management and Culinary Arts. My specialty is cookies, confectionary items, cakes and other desserts. I also have my own business baking desserts for other people for birthday parties, gatherings, etc. It has been a great experience - a great way to learn the ropes (quickly). Having a business/computer background definitely helps with all the book-keeping that is involved.

Oaty Cereal Bars

Reviewed on Jun. 15, 2009 by sjsholar 
These are SO good! I could hardly stop eating them. Neither could the 8 year old I babysit who will not eat anything! She took a bite, and after a moment of suspense...she belted out "That's the way, uh huh, uh huh, I like it!" LOL. I used Golden Graham cereal because that's what I had in the house, and also boiled the sugar and honey longer as one user suggested. I think I went too long though, because they set up to be hard as a rock. That can easily be remedied though by a few seconds in the microwave. Be careful! The sugar mixture can get VERY hot when reheated! I will be experimenting with different kinds of cereal & next time will only boil the sugar and honey for about 1 minute instead of 3.

Chocolate Orange Truffles

Reviewed on Jun. 9, 2009 by sjsholar 
These were AMAZING! So good. I made them for my boyfriend & his favorite flavors are orange and key lime so I made half of each. I took a reviewer's suggestion of making the filling mixture the night before and keeping in the fridge overnight. It was REALLY stiff by then, but I was still able to get it into balls. I would definitely double or triple the recipe if making for more than one person because mine only came out to 24 VERY small truffles. Taste is delicious though!

Chocolate Eclair Dessert

Reviewed on May 21, 2009 by sjsholar 
I have been making this dessert for family get-togethers my entire life! Which is 20 years. Everyone loves it, I don't know what would happen if I decided not to make it one year! Definitely follow one user's suggestion of microwaving the frosting if you are using store-bought - that is the way I have always done it, and not only does it make it MUCH easier to spread, the consistency sits much better with the rest of the dessert. I always try to get it into the fridge the night before serving so that the graham crackers get soft. Delicious!
