I made these using 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose and they turned out well. I wasn't sure about the temp of my water and the yeast didn't really turn into a "creamy foam" but my dough still raised. I brushed my pretzels with an egg white but they didn't change color as much as I expected. I dropped them in the water by hand but slide out using a spatula. The first one I tried to use bbq tongs or chopsticks and it broke apart.

Lime Chicken Soft Tacos

Reviewed: May 12, 2013

I really enjoyed the strong flavors in this dish. The chicken was done in about 12 minutes for me and I only cooked the marinade for about 3 minutes longer (until all the liquid was dried up). It took me about 30 minutes total to make which is unusual that I can get a flavorful recipe done in that short of time. I only used about a pound of chicken though and came away with 4 fulling tacos. Next time I would definitely use more chicken. I also used a whole lime and skipped the green onion.

Applesauce Doughnuts

Reviewed: May 11, 2013

These are the best doughnuts I've ever had! I doubled the amount of cinnamon, but kept everything else the same. I baked them in a doughnut maker I had for about 8-10 minutes until a cake tester cake out clean. I pulled the doughnuts out with chop-sticks and rolled them in sugar cinnamon! It was really hard to stop myself from eating more than I should... I got about 3 dozen using my maker which is a little larger than standard doughnut holes you'd get at the store. They were so fluffy & the first recipe I've tried in the maker that actually raised to fill the wells.

Banana Crumb Muffins

Reviewed: May 4, 2013

I made these muffins with whole wheat flour and only 1/2 cup of white sugar. I actually got a dozen muffins. I felt that the crumb topping ratio was off though. Too much brown sugar, not enough cinnamon (I added about 1/2tsp) and too little butter for the amount of brown sugar called for. I'd still make them again but play around with the crumb topping or possibly eliminate it since that's a lot of sugar to be eating.

Healthier Sugar Cookie Icing

Reviewed: Nov. 1, 2012

I followed the directions exactly and the milk and powdered sugar didn't come out smooth and adding the sugar syrup only made hard clumps. I added all the syrup 2 tsp. at a time and then more milk to get a bit of a glaze with hard sugar balls in it. If it wasn't so late & I didn't have work in the morning I would have tossed the stuff out made a glaze without graduated sugar.
