Worth a try! I baked the cake in a bundt pan so it would look pretty. It was done in 40 minutes. I added an extra tsp of cinnamon and used Canola oil b/c that's what I had in the cupboard. The cake was perfectly moist and stayed that way for a few days afterward. I did not ice it, but may try that when I make it again next week for Thanksgiving. I can see why some may say it's oily, but that didn't take away from how delicious it was. Thank you!

Super-Delicious Zuppa Toscana

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2011

This is absolutely wonderful. I didn't change much, only that I used turkey sausage and ditalini pasta instead of potatoes b/c I don't care for potato. The flavor is so bold and delicious. I sprinkled fresh shaved parmesan on top and served with bread and salad.

Banana Sour Cream Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2010

I love to read through all of the reviews before I make anything. However, I just didn't have the time this time around. Guess what? You don't need to either. Don't change a thing about this recipe and you will have an amazingly moist, flavorful bread that won't last long in the house! YUMMY!

Satiny Chocolate Glaze

Reviewed: Nov. 20, 2010

Perfect! Just the right flavor and consistency for my favorite chocolate cake. I also love that I don't have to break out the messy confectioner's sugar for this recipe. I know, lazy! But who doesn't love easy? I simply placed the first 3 ingredients in a Pyrex glass measuring cup and microwaved for two 45 second intervals, stirring in between, as others suggested. There is absolutely no excuse to use canned frosting when you can make this delicious homemade glaze in 90 seconds. Another plus: when the glaze sets it isn't as easily transfered to the foil or plastic wrap if you're transporting the cake w/o a carrier. Less mess:)

Caramel Popcorn

Reviewed: Dec. 20, 2009

Yum! I am on my third batch. I halved the butter as many suggested. I used Orville Redenbacher's Natural Simply Salted microwave popcorn and kept it warm in the oven until time to coat. I used a large brown bag to distribute the caramel all over the popcorn before baking. It baked for about 45 minutes to just the right consistency of crunchy/chewiness. After allowing the popcorn to cool I distributed it into 2 pound decorative plastic containers and drizzled it with dark chocolate. The perfect gift for co-workers. I attached the recipe as a gift tag. Cute.

Spinach Cheese Pie

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2009

This recipe turned out quite nice. There was not too much cheese as "yumyum" suggested and I am not quite sure how reviewing a recipe you've never made is useful. The recipe was easy to follow and, as stated, the nutmeg truly does add a little extra something. My toddler even enjoyed this which pleased me a lot! Between the eggs, spinach, and cheese she got a nice nutritional dinner. We served it with some tomato soup.

Chicken Enchiladas I

Reviewed: Sep. 10, 2009

I served this at my husband's football draft party. I usually make chili and I thought this would be a nice change. After sampling, I can say that these are OUTSTANDING. I rolled them in fajita size flour tortillas. I omitted the water, no surprise there. I used Margaritaville medium salsa in place of tomato sauce. I used enchilada sauce in place of taco sauce. Boiled chicken in a bullion cube and shredded. I made it the morning of the party and put the sauce and cheese on right before putting it in the oven. I doubled the recipe and there is nothing left. What a truly wonderful recipe.
