These are phenomenal. I had to do a few minor tweaks, like the 2 tablespoons of butter instead of just one. I cut it in, mixed every so lightly with the milk and then dropped them in. The first batch I accidentally went to 20 minutes and they mushed up but the kids didn't mind. I ended up making 3 batches so far (pork, sauerkraut and dumplings) and I think I may need another one. If your family is big (and in it for the dumplings) just one batch isn't enough! These are downright delicious. Tried with parsley one batch and pepper with another. You really can't seem to go wrong if you follow the recipe and keep to 15 minutes with a lid on simmer!

Butter-Dipped Biscuit Squares

Reviewed: Jan. 31, 2009

These were surprisingly good! Quick, easy and tasty. Can't really go wrong. Mine were a little flat, so they got a tough and chewy, the fatter ones were great, though. Followed the recipe exactly, would probably make them again, too. Thanks!

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

Reviewed: Nov. 2, 2008

I started making these prior to reading all the reviews...I must say, a lot of people managed to mangle them. These were actually pretty impressive, though I strayed and split the sugar between white and brown. They weren't gritty, they didn't burn on the bottom and they weren't excessively oily like I was afraid they'd be.(I even greased my first sheet!) But I wouldn't recommend them if you aren't a huge fan of peanut butter. ^_^

Mom's Best Peanut Brittle

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2008

This turned out really good!(despite my lack of thermometer.) I highly recommend it, even for the not so experienced candy makers. (Warming the tray in the oven prior to dumping the mix on it helps to spread it around before it hardens)

Melt - In - Your - Mouth Shortbread

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2008

These turned out AMAZING when whipped profusely. I did make them without the electric mixer the first time, and though they were crumbly, they were still awesome. I'd highly recommend them for holidays or anytime you're in the mood for some quick and delicious cookies.

Good Old Fashioned Pancakes

Reviewed: Sep. 2, 2008

Seriously, there is no need to stray far from this recipe. I sifted the flour only once, added a teaspoon of vanilla and left the batter thick (not lumpy!). I like to let my batter sit ten minutes, but when you have a 2 1/2 year old tugging at your pants, there's not much more than 3 minutes to wait. They turned out PERFECT. They are light, fluffy and just phenomenal. I highly recommend them.
