Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie Stew

Reviewed: Oct. 26, 2009
I made a half recipe omitting the salt. Half just about filled up my whole crock pot! I wouldn't cut your chicken pieces too small as mine fell apart when stirring. Enjoyed it served over biscuits.

Extreme Chocolate Cake

Reviewed: Apr. 19, 2010
Very good tasting cake, quite moist and dense. The batter is super runny, and at most about 1 1/2 inches deep after rising during baking. You'll definitely have to layer it. I did not try the frosting.

Bread Machine Focaccia

Reviewed: Apr. 2, 2010
Made almost exactly as written, using dried rosemary instead of fresh. Made some great paninis and yummy bread otherwise!

Simple White Cake

Reviewed: Apr. 2, 2010
Made as written, beating the ever loving heck out of it as others suggest. Tastes like sugar cookie!

Delicious Ham and Potato Soup

Reviewed: Nov. 4, 2009
Very good and easy. I use unpeeled red potatoes. I just throw the first part in my crock pot for a few hours, then add the roux for another couple of hours.

Very yummy AND easy. It's perfect as is, or you can spice it up if you want to.

Marshmallow Fondant

Reviewed: Feb. 25, 2010
This was really REALLY easy! This was the first time I've ever made or tried using fondant and it worked beautifully. Plus, it tastes really good!

Chocolate Crinkles II

Reviewed: Oct. 27, 2009
Very good! This was just about the stickiest dough I've ever worked with. 45 minutes in the freezer got it solid enough to continue. Made into large balls for two sheets of 16. Perfect at 14 minutes. Yummmmmm.

Chicken Lo Mein

Reviewed: Oct. 19, 2009
This was okay. Almost good, but not great for the amount of effort. I liked the taste of the marinated chicken vs. chicken just thrown in there. I would try again with different noodles and maybe adding the oyster sauce if it's not too spendy!

Disappearing Marshmallow Brownies

Reviewed: Oct. 26, 2010
Very good. I had to get my butterscotch blazing hot to completely melt, so unfortunately my chocolate chips melted when I stirred them in later. So I couldn't really taste the butterscotch, but oh well, they were nice and chewy and yummy! Had to bake for 25 minutes, at 20 the middle was still jiggly.

Creamy Cajun Shrimp Pasta

Reviewed: Nov. 12, 2009
This was okay. It wasn't spectacular (maybe it was the seasoning I used? or skim milk?) but was fast and simple. Felt like it was missing something.

Marbled Pumpkin Cheesecake

Reviewed: Nov. 22, 2009
Since I made this in a regular pie pan (don't have a springform), there was enough filling to almost fill up two, definitely too much for one. It ended up baking just fine without cracks. I put the prepared filling in the fridge while making the crust which allowed for distinct, separate marbling. I was hoping you could discern the "plain" cheesecake flavor from the pumpkin, but the pumpkin overwhelmed everything. Still, very good, and very easy.

Easy OREO Truffles

Reviewed: Dec. 18, 2009
These taste amazing! However, I rated it 4 stars due to proportions stated in the recipe. I was able to get by with one 8 oz box of chocolate. It also seemed like 9 crushed cookies for the topping was waaaay too much. I would also suggest sprinkling the topping right after you dip each piece in chocolate (I waited until done with all of them and the first ones were already set). I bet these would be even more amazing in white chocolate.

Spanish Rice II

Followed directions exactly. A tad spicy for us, but good nonetheless.

No Time to Cook Chicken

Reviewed: Oct. 13, 2009
Made this as written but added garlic powder, seasoned salt, pepper, and a small sliced onion. It was fairly bland with these additions, so all alone it would have been reeeeaaaaalllllly bland. FYI -- Adding an onion made my house reek! Regardless, it was quite easy. Might make again adding more spices.

Chicken and Broccoli Braid

Reviewed: Mar. 18, 2010
This was very good and easy. However, just using 1 tsp of dill weed (half what is called for) was a little too much for me. Otherwise, yummy.

Country Apple Dumplings

Reviewed: Oct. 14, 2009
I made this recipe exactly as written and also using brown sugar (half recipe of 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar, and vanilla). I preferred the version with brown sugar, thus only 4 stars since it's not the exact recipe. I think the brown sugar takes the extreme sweetness of the white sugar only version down a notch. But this recipe still rocked -- super easy to make and is ridiculously good for such little effort!!!

To Die For Blueberry Muffins

Reviewed: Jul. 18, 2010
Very disappointing. Note I'm rating the actual recipe as written. The topping was entirely too heavy to allow the muffins to rise, despite only using half of what it actually makes. The topping caused the muffin middles to sink in and then majorly overflow the cups. They look disastrous, but taste okay. But still a low rating for recipe flaws.

J.P.'s Big Daddy Biscuits

Reviewed: Oct. 26, 2009
Made this exactly as written but without the kneading. They turned into hockey pucks (tasted okay though). Not sure if this was user error or the fact that I live in relentlessly rainy Oregon. Too bad I won't be able to really figure that out until it stops raining in May!
