Brown Sugar-Caramel Latte

Reviewed: Dec. 29, 2011

I used milk instead of half and half, and Kahlua flavored coffee from my Keuring, since I don't have an espresso machine. Delish!

Eggnog Latte

Reviewed: Dec. 29, 2011

Pretty good! I used all egg nog, and omitted the milk. I used a Kahlua flavored coffee in my Keurig and this was delish!

WOW, so very good! First time I ever made pulled pork and it was delish!! I will be making this again for sure! I made a few changes...I did not use the vegetable oil, it seemed unnecessary. I also had only a hot and spicy BBQ sauce in the house, and I didn't want to overwhelm the dish, so I only used half a cup. I also used a whole cup of chicken broth and upped the brown sugar to half a cup. I completely omitted the mustard, as no one in the house likes it, and I don't ever buy it. Small changes, excellent meal! Try it, you won't be sorry!

Kyle's Favorite Beef Stew

Reviewed: Dec. 7, 2011

This is absolutely delicious! I left out the onions and mushrooms, due to my family's taste. They all loved this and the entire crock was gone when dinner was over!

Donut Muffins

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2011

These are very good. I used butter instead of margarine, and I halved the nutmeg, because it seemed overwhelming. I also added some cinnamon to the batter, these were delish.....you won't be sorry if you make these. I got 24 of them, and they are going fast!

McCormick® Vanilla Rich Chocolate Chip Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2011

Excellent cookies! They are big cookies, with crisp edges and chewy middles, very tasty, I will definitely make them again! I used only 3 teaspoons of vanilla, 4 just seemed like too much. I also left out the nuts, as my family doesn't like them.

Perfect Double Chocolate Peanut Candy Cookies

Reviewed: Oct. 4, 2011

These were quite tasty. I followed the recipe exactly, and it made about 40 cookies. Days after being made, they were still soft and delicious. Will definitely make these again.

Many Meals Pot Roast

Reviewed: Jun. 30, 2011

I have made this twice now. First time, I followed the recipe exactly, and it was really good. Second time, I made some additions. I added a bunch of minced garlic, dried oregano, and parsley. Also a liberal splash of worcestershire sauce and about 1/4 cup of beer. Excellent!

English Roast Beef

Reviewed: Nov. 23, 2010

We did not care for this at all. We had a 5.4 pound round roast and set it for 2 hours, as the recipe said that would make a rare roast. I pulled it out to check it 20 minutes prior to the timer going off, and it was already medium and on it's way to medium well. Perhaps because I had no Dutch Oven? Had to use a roaster after I seared it on the stove top. But the roast was very bland, the flavors didn't really seep into it at all. Won't be making this one again.

Shmunky's Colby Jack Cheddar Biscuits

Reviewed: Aug. 12, 2010

We didn't like these at all. They were very chewy, and the insides took longer to cook than the outside, making for a crunchy exterior. And the taste just wasn't quite "right", though I can't put my finger on what I didn't like about it. We won't be making these again.

Ten Clove Garlic Marinade

Reviewed: Jul. 29, 2010

Excellent! Our new favorite marinade. Left out the onions, as they are not a favorite around here. Marinated overnight, then threw the filets on the grill. Perfect!

Great Chicken Marinade

Reviewed: May 17, 2010

I used italian dressing from a bottle, since I didn't have the packets, lessened the oil, and added a tablespoon of brown sugar. It was pretty good. My 5 year old declared it the best chicken ever, which was nice!

Japanese Style Deep Fried Shrimp

Reviewed: Mar. 9, 2010

Excellent, but I think Old Bay is missing from the ingredients. I dusted the shrimp with Old Bay, then flour, egg, panko. Just the touch that was needed to take these over the top!

Almost No Fat Banana Bread

Reviewed: Mar. 3, 2010

Wonderful! I used all whole wheat flour, replaced sugar with Splenda, I added extra bananas, a bit more applesauce, and about 1 TBSP of oil, for texture. Tastes just as good as the full fat version! Will definitely be making this again!

Beer and Brown Sugar Steak Marinade

Reviewed: Feb. 16, 2010

Delicious! I marinated the meat for about 4 hours, and it was excellent! This will become a staple around here! I used light beer, since that is what we had, and subbed soy sauce for the teriyaki. Also added garlic cloves. We all loved it!

Overnight Coffee Cake

Reviewed: Feb. 16, 2010

Excellent! I did not let it sit overnight, just baked it when done putting it together and it was fabulous! I did add a layer of the topping in the middle of the batter, then piled the rest on top. Served it to company and everyone loved it! Will definitely make this again!

Jumbo Fluffy Walnut Apple Muffins

Reviewed: Feb. 16, 2010

OMG delish! The best apple muffin I've ever made. Light and fluffy! I did add extra apple and they are really moist. Also, I got 10 jumbo muffins out of this recipe, and doubled the topping to cover them. I did change the topping to 1 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, and half teapoon of nutmeg. Excellent!
