Biscuit Baking Mix

needs more salt

Dough was sticky and difficult to work with. Ended up tasting like bad shortbread. I think there needs to be a little sugar and salt in the dough. I came across a similar recipe in my grandmother's recipe collection that had the same ingredients and proportions but had sugar and salt as well- so will try that next. Might try Solo filling next time as well. Just wishing they had more flavor!

Chicken and Shrimp Linguine

Reviewed: Jul. 19, 2009

Needed some salt, but otherwise pretty good and very easy. It is very good though. My husband said it would be nice if there was something green in it (spinach or asparagus) and more garlic.

Green Salad with Cranberry Vinaigrette

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2008

Pretty good! It will definitely give a little zing to your salad. I will probably make it again.

Big Soft Ginger Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2008

Excellent cookies! Really soft. People have told me that they don't like ginger cookies, then eat one, and rave about how good they are! They disappeared before the Rum Sugar Cookies in my office. I absolutely love these cookies!

Rum Sugar Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2008

I wouldn't go so far to say these taste "just like egg nog". They are very good, and are very similar to my great-grandmother's egg nog cookie recipe. I have only done one batch, and have not yet done the icing. Will try the icing too.

Eggnog Thumbprints

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2008

I have been searching for the perfect egg nog cookie recipe for 6 years... and I this is by far my favorite. I have made 2 batches. The dough comes out beautifully. I think next time I make it I will use rum flavoring instead of the vanilla flavoring in the cookie. I did mix the flour in with my KitchenAid on Stir, and baked on parchment paper, and they baked beautifully. I did modify the filling recipe a little. I used 2 tsp. rum flavoring, 2 tsp milk, and 1/4 tsp. of nutmeg, (probably an extra tsp of powdered sugar as well). It makes this frosting taste just like egg nog. So delish! This recipe has won a place in my annual holiday "must have" cookies.
