Chocolate Mint Candies Cookies

Reviewed: Jun. 7, 2008
Edit since Original Review - These cookies are great but, after about 36 hours if there is any left overs they get kinda blah...even though they were stored in a tight container. It took some time to get the feel of the cookies. I ended up putting the dough into the fridge overnight (even though it was a lot harder it seemed the cookies turned out better.) A metal cookie scoop from Pampered Chef made scooping the hard cookie dough out no problem even after sitting in the fridge all night. These cookies are definitely a cookie you do NOT want to over bake. I found 10 minutes cookie time was exactly perfect for these (and letting them sit on the cookie sheet for 1 minute. I ended up using only half of a Andes Candy on each cookie a whole piece just made the cookies to rich if you make the cookies walnut sized (this is with using parchment paper on my cookie sheet so my cookies didn't really spread out much.) I loved the ones that have a lil bit of green left on the top of the cookie I wish that more of the cookies had the brown/green swirls in them but unfortunately it is hard to keep the swirls in sometimes. I think I may add a 1/8 teaspoon of mint extract to the cookie dough next time (I just want a hint of mint in the actual cookie so figure 1/8 of teaspoon might just be enough.) If you overbake the cookies they seem to taste a bit more like thin mints (crunchy) but I prefer them soft and chewy. I found taking them out when the cookie began to crack that it seemed

Chipotle Crusted Pork Tenderloin

Reviewed: Jun. 1, 2008
We tried this on pork chops. I couldn't find the chipotle powder so I used hot Mexican chili powder and regular powder instead. It was really good. Next time I might add a little more brown sugar so that the sweetness is a little more prominent.

Ground Beef Pie

Reviewed: May 23, 2008
This is too bland. It needs something else like tomatoes or something. My family did not like it. Probably won't make it again.

This was a great squash recipe- the best fried squash that I've ever made! I used seasoned salt instead of the seasoning in the recipe.

Easy Paella

Reviewed: Apr. 4, 2008
I thought this was just ok. My husband hated it, but he's not a big fan of shrimp. I picked his out, but it still had the shrimp flavor. It probably would have been better without the lemon and it also needed more chicken stock for the rice to cook thoroughly. This recipe has many great reviews, so maybe paella is not for us. :0)

Soft Pretzels

Reviewed: Feb. 17, 2008
These were easy to make and tasted good when eaten warm. As they cooled, they got kind of dry. When they came out of the oven, I sprayed them with spray butter and dipped them in cinnamon sugar- yumm!

Crispy Oven-Fried Fish Fillets

Reviewed: Feb. 3, 2008
I made one change in this recipe, that was to dip the fish first in flour then the milk before dipping into the crouton crumbs, the breading stayed on and didn't have a mushy texture as the other reviewer stated. My daughter normally picks off breading but loved this one so it is a keeper. Next time I may try tweaking it a little just to see what I can come up with. Thanks for the recipe!

Vicki's Hush Puppies

Reviewed: Feb. 3, 2008
Awesome recipe! I made it as directed in the recipe with the exception of adding a little old bay seasoning. My 73 year old father who has never cared for hush puppies said they are the best he's ever tasted and went back for seconds and even thirds! Thanks for the great recipe, it is a keeper and will definately get plenty of use in my home!

Pizza Sauce and Dough

Reviewed: Jan. 29, 2008
I just used the sauce from this recipe. It turned out great!!! I don't like chunks in my sauce so I put the tomatoes in the blender before I started. I think I will play with the spices a little next time but it was great!!! Thanks for a great pizza sauce that I can make myself and don't have to worry about what is in it.

Jay's Signature Pizza Crust

Reviewed: Jan. 29, 2008
I am always trying new recipes to try to find the best out there. I tried this instead of using my usual recipe. Unfortunately I was disappointed it just didn't stack up compared to my normal recipe. It didn't have the flavor, or the consistency that I normally have with my pizza dough. It was a ok dough but, nothing spectacular. I will go back to my regular recipe.

Rice, Broccoli 'n Cheese Cups

Reviewed: Jan. 6, 2008
I thought these were easy to make, but bland. They needed more ranch dressing or seasoning. It would probably be a good side for kids. The texture was good and the muffin size servings were cute. Next time I would definitely add more flavor.

Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes

Reviewed: Jan. 2, 2008
These were awesome! I have tried many different Au Gratin Potatoes Recipes and could never find a recipe that I liked. These will be my new Au Gratin Recipe from now on. I used 1 tsp of Onion Powder instead of a onion (I just don't care for consistency of onions but I like the taste they give so I prefer using onion Powder or Flakes.) I also added 3/4 tsp of Garlic Powder and 1/2 tsp of Italion Seasoning. (All of the seasonings I added to the butter as it was melting. Then just poured the cheese sauce over the potatoes. They were so amazing thanks for a great recipe!

Sweet Dinner Rolls

Reviewed: Dec. 26, 2007
I ended up making these twice today (Christmas Day) the first time I just didn't like the results. (Good thing I started at 4 am) They were ok but just not up to my standards of what I normally make for Dinner Rolls. So since it got such great reviews I decided to try again. The second time I made a few changes...instead of adding the 1/4 cup of butter at the end I changed that to shortening and actually added it into the dough in the bread machine. I had to add another 1/4 cup of flour because after I added it the dough was just way to sticky (which I knew it was going to be) After I made these changes though the rolls were perfect. They were light, fluffy, had a nice bread taste, and turned out beautifully. Instead of rolling them out I put 3 small balls each into each muffin pan to make Clover Leaf Rolls. They were really good. The only person who didn't like them was my cousin and I think that is just because he is used to my grandma's recipe....although he did eat 5 of them so he couldn't have hated them that much.
