It worked!! So excited...my boyfriend loved it, and it went great with powdered sugar on top and a bunch of fresh fruit on the side.

Beer Spuds

Reviewed: Jan. 26, 2009

I think these were pretty good, even if I did make them in the oven. They had a very tangy, distinctive flavor.

A big hit at a birthday party, this cake is for grown-ups! The concept isn't that scary, once you get your stiff peaks of egg whites. Just mix gently (folding doesn't seem so descriptive with the very thick batter you have to work with) and keep your cool. Cooks up very nicely in a bundt pan also.

A big hit at our girls' night! I used amaretto and almonds instead of hazelnut liqueur and hazelnuts.

Mandarin Orange Cake III

Reviewed: Jun. 18, 2008

I liked making this cake because it was very easy and quick. I agree with everyone else that it doesn't taste much like oranges, but my friends and I enjoyed the sugary topping and overall it was a big hit.

Sesame Coffee Cake

Reviewed: Jun. 11, 2008

I totally modified this recipe, using cashew butter & water for the tahini, and soymilk for most of the water. I have to say, it's pretty nice! It tastes very much like nutmeg, it's very sweet, and even despite its richness I like it with a bit of soft butter on top. Low-cal! haha...

Baked Zucchini Chips

Reviewed: Oct. 1, 2007

It was ok, and I used wheat germ instead of breadcrumbs which is daring and not recommended. Still, if you like zucchini, why not try it?

Fruit 'n' Nut Spice Bars

Reviewed: Sep. 6, 2007

These are good and very easy to make, but I must say do not really fit the name. They are more like chocolate chip cherry cookie bars. I can't taste the spices that much, but I do like the predominant flavors of chocolate chips and marachino cherries that I do taste. Yum!

British Bread Pudding

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2007

this is a very versatile recipe, because I changed a lot of things (used leftover bagels for one, and added yogurt) and it still turned out very well. I would recommend it!

Walnut-Date Quick Bread

I will give it five stars because while I did not taste it personally, the people for whom I made it thought it was great and asked me for the recipe. :)

Greek Lentil Soup (Fakes)

Reviewed: Aug. 13, 2007

I am sure this recipe is quite good--I deviated from it quite a bit, though, and added instead of a quart of water, two cups of water and a cube of bouillon and a large can of organic crushed tomatoes with basil. I also included cubed potatoes with the carrots. It turned out a delicious thick lentil stewy soup, vegetarian and wonderful, even leftover. A splash of balsamic vinegar and a few crumbles of feta cheese on top was the lovely finishing touch.
