Pecan Pie Muffins

Reviewed: Mar. 10, 2011

A good finger food. Used less butter because I didn't have the full amount. The only thing I would change next time is to add some vanilla extract.

Cranberry Sauce Extraordinaire

Reviewed: Nov. 12, 2005

Wonderful recipe. Substitute Splenda for the sugar. Would love a candle that has the aroma of this stuff cooking. Yummy!!! Is more like a chutney, but a good chutney. Is definitely a keeper recipe.

Old Fashioned Peach Cobbler

Reviewed: Aug. 4, 2005

Thought from the reviews that my family would love this cobbler. Way too sweet,and I used less sugar than listed. After the initial taste, no one took another bite.

Butternut Squash Soup

Reviewed: Mar. 9, 2005

This is good as a side dish, but a little overpowering to be the main course. Half the called for cheese is definitely the way to go. A very good cold weather soup.

Nana-Nut Bread

Reviewed: Mar. 9, 2005

This is a great recipe and the bonus is that it is low-fat/low-carb. Made by the recipe except used no-fat buttermilk. Definitely a keeper.

Followed a lot of the recommendations for this recipe..i.e.--went with the premade crust, drained the frozen berries and went two tablespoons of corn starch. It was o.k. but not something I would bake again.

Praline Sweet Potatoes

Reviewed: Jan. 30, 2005

Having just returned from New Orleans, we were looking for a recipe with that great praline taste. This one definitely is a keeper. Went by the recipe except a little more on the sweet potatoes and would NOT change a thing.

Braised Balsamic Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 2, 2005

Always looking for new ways to prepare chicken. This one will go in the recipe book. I did follow several reviews and cut down on the vinegar to 1/3 cup. Did not have all the spices so I used what was available. Also added chopped garlic.

Apple Pecan Cobbler

Reviewed: Nov. 16, 2004

Made this recipe twice in one weeks time; once with pecans and once without. Each time I made it the texture was different and I followed the recipe both times. Loved both!!!

Walnut Biscotti

Reviewed: Jan. 10, 2002

This is so good and won the approval of a child and an 85 year old woman. Need I say more! Better than any biscotti I've ever bought. We used fresh black walnuts in our recipe.
