This is a really cool idea, but I changed the ratio of chocolate and butterscotch because I think butterscotch is too sweet. Because I used more chocolate, I used regular raisins - not chocolate covered. Even with my adaptation, people seemed to really like this candy.

Aunt Teen's Creamy Chocolate Fudge

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2005

I splurged and bought good chocolate, and I think it made all the difference. I also made a butterscotch fudge with pecans. This is a very flexible recipe, so I can't wait to try additional variations.

Chocolate Brittle Surprise

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2005

Everyone is so shocked when I tell them it's made with crackers. It just tastes like delicious chocolate covered toffee. I love the idea of making a toffee without a candy thermometer.

Russian Tea Cakes III

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2005

This were a new addition to my Christmas cookies, and I've already had to come back to this website to reprint the recipe for friends. They are a bit difficult to form, but man... are they good!

Cranberry Pistachio Biscotti

Reviewed: Dec. 21, 2005

This is an awesome recipe. Although there are a few more steps vs. other cookies, they are definitely worth it. I make them every Christmas and always get compliments.

Classic Tiramisu

Reviewed: Mar. 26, 2005

This is an okay dessert, but not a true tiramisu, which requires that you make a zabaglione. If you want to make tiramisu much easier, this is a nice option. However, I think it is worth the extra time to make it the more traditional way.

Taste of Home's Morning Glory Muffins

Reviewed: Mar. 22, 2005

This recipe is absolutely work the time, energy, and number of ingredients. I feel like I'm eating a delicious carrot cake rather than a muffin!

Raspberry Almond Shortbread Thumbprints

Reviewed: Jan. 8, 2005

They tasted good, but were hard to form because they were too dry. I would reduce the amount of flour next time.

Beef and Rice Posole

Reviewed: Jan. 8, 2005

I made this for a Mexican potluck party, and it was a huge hit! However, instead of using beef, I used chicken breast, which I cut into bit-size pieces. I also replaced the water with chicken broth.

Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff I

Reviewed: Jan. 17, 2004

I jazzed this recipe up, following the advice of some others. First, I coated the beef with the flour, salt, and pepper and browned it. I added beef broth instead of water; I eliminated the onion and used a packet of onion soup mix instead; I also added one Tbs. of tomato paste and 1 Tbs. of horseradish. I placed fresh thyme and sage while it was cooking, but removed them when I added 2 oz. of onion and chive cream cheese and 2 oz. sour cream.

Barbeque Pork Two Ways

Reviewed: Nov. 11, 2003

I rubbed a pork tenderloin with salt, pepper, and chicken grill seasoning, and browned the outside before putting it in the crock pot. I also followed the advice of others and added 1 cup of barbeque sauce (Sweet Baby Rays), but I also dilluted a 1/2 cup ketchup with 1/2 cup of white wine. I shredded the pork, and then let cook in the juices the last hour. It was wonderful!
