Peach Upside Down Cake I

Reviewed: May 28, 2012

This is old fashioned goodness. The cake is almost a shortbread and the nutmeg adds the perfect touch. I didn't have any milk, so I used sour cream. I also added about 1/2 t vanilla to the batter. I will make this every time I have peaches. Thanks for sharing!

Grandma's Gingersnap Cookies

Reviewed: Apr. 22, 2012

These are really good gingersnaps! I was looking for a recipe that was not as crispy all the way through as the one I have always used. I think the 350 cooking temperature helps with this as well as the ingredients. I upped the spicy factor and added 1/2 t cloves as another reviewer suggested. I also added 1 t grated fresh ginger and about 1/3 c finely chopped candied ginger to make them triple ginger snaps. This will be my go to ginger snap recipe. Thanks for sharing.

Apple Strudel Muffins

Reviewed: Feb. 11, 2012

Good muffins! Did add lots more spice than recipe called for. Put at least a tsp. of cinnamon and 1/2 tsp. fresh ground nutmeg. Had to add a little extra liquid (couple of T of half and half) because the dough was so thick. Melted butter for topping and added more cinnamon and nutmeg. The toppping did not sink into the muffins, they rose well. Did add 5 minutes of cooking time. I will make these again. Thanks for sharing.

Gingerbread Men

Reviewed: Dec. 14, 2011

OK, just not spicy enough. They are easy to roll out. Doesn't make a lot, so probably a great recipe for kids to play with and enjoy.

S'mores Crumb Bars

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2011

Easy to make and wicked good! They are very sweet, but that's kind of the point isn't it? I used a little more butter and milk chocolate chips. I think I used more marshmallows than called for because I had some of those really giant marshmallows to use up which I cut into pieces. But... loved them and will make them again. Thanks for sharing.

Orange Cake

Reviewed: Oct. 9, 2011

I thought this cake was moist and flavorful. I could have eaten all of it! I took it to work to share and it did not get devoured. Guess they are not orange cake people. Their loss!

Slow Cooker Creamed Corn

Reviewed: Sep. 4, 2011

I am sorry. It looked really good. When it was cooked it was just bland and processed tasting. I think I want to like slow cooker food and I just can't. I guess I need to leave the crock pot alone.
