This cake was a huge hit with my family. Surprisenly, I personally found it not sweet enough, but everyone else loved it. The only thing I did differently from the recipe is added vanilla pudding mix because I needed it to be a bit more dense to hold it's shape as a 3D Bear cake. I'll be making this again and will probably add fruit of some sort - baked in the center of cupcakes or somethings. Thanks for the recipe! :)

Old Fashioned Chicken and Dumplings

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2011

The overall taste seemed fine... Seemed salty, but I used regular butter instead of unsalted butter for the dumplings, which for all I know messed the whlel thing up... but the dumplings were awful! I guess I didn't understand the directions, but it said it will be crumbly after mixing everything together and then to spoon it in... so it stayed crumbly and was not appetizing at all - looks or taste. I'd appreciate for any veterans of this recipe if they could explain the dumpling part to me b/c it was nothing like any dumplings I have ever made before.
