Sweet Potato Pie II

Reviewed: Nov. 12, 2009

The recipe turned out great.....tasting better than my pumpkin pie recipe. I did modify the recipe just a bit....incorporating the eggs all at once instead of beting the egg whites separate (serious time saver) and using sweetened condensed milk instead of the evaporated milk AND sugar. I doubled the recipe tto make two pies and they both came out perfectly fine. I would recommend baking tthe sweet potatoes in the oven for two hours and using a food processor to make the potatoes smooth for a better texture. This recipe even allows for a slight mishap of forgetting to turn the oven temperature down. THANKS FOR THE GREAT RECIPE!!!!

Kielbasa with Brussels Sprouts

Reviewed: Nov. 8, 2009

This was so good and I am not a fan of Brussels Sprouts. I did saute the onions in Olive Oil with 2 cloves of garlic. Added the sausage and spouts to the onion garlic mix to brown the sausage and cook the sprouts. After placing into the serving bowl I added grated parmesean cheese to melt on the top.

Tiramisu Layer Cake

Reviewed: Aug. 5, 2009

This was Delish! OMG! Delish, Can I say that again? Delish! I didn't have a hand mixer but for the frosting so I did it by hand (took about 10 minutes of not stop whipping) so I put a large bowl over a smaller bowl filled with ice water to keep it as cold as possible (for the frosting) and it turned out perfect. I also accidentally added whole eggs to the cake mix (oops) Even with my mistakes this turned out Delish! (LOL)P.S. I made this EXACTLY as written with no extra anything! EDIT: Making this once again! I know everyone will love it, making it for my hubbys company party. Anyhow, the more I make it - the easier it seems to get (just a thought for newbie bakers like me).

Easy Pesto

The recipe was ok, but the nut taste is overpowering in this dish. Neither my husband or I enjoyed this. It was decent enough to eat because we already cooked it, but we would not make it again.
