Chocolate Covered Cherry Cookies II

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2011

I made these just as the recipe says except that I used half whole wheat flour and half white flour. These are my new favorite cookies!!!! I put the chocolate icing on before as well as after baking and they are so gooey and very chocolaty.

Pumpkin Gingerbread

Reviewed: Oct. 9, 2011

So yummy! Even my kids loved it! I made it just as the recipe says (minus a cup of sugar because that's just insane to have almost as much sugar as flour) and then I made it again using applesauce instead of oil, egg whites instead of whole eggs, 1 cup less sugar, and the flour half whole wheat half white. It turned out GREAT both ways!

Monkey Bread II

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2011

This was my first time making monkey bread and it was much easier than I thought it'd be. I used 2 cups of whole wheat flour and 1 cup of white to make it a little healthier. I also used half the amount of butter and sugar and still had enough. Next time I will dip the bits in butter and then roll in the sugar though as I think that will more evenly spread the sugar throughout it.

Strawberry Muffins

Reviewed: Jul. 5, 2011

I used whole wheat flour and applesauce instead of oil. I made one batch with the strawberries chopped but they just oozed juice while baking and made them so ugly with brownish liquid all stuck to the sides. For the 2nd attempt I pureed the strawberries and it made them much prettier and the taste was great but the texture was a little gummy in the middles even after cooking for extra time.

The Best Banana Bread

Reviewed: May 10, 2011

I used 100% whole wheat flour and applesauce instead of margarine and it turned out AMAZING!!!! I think I can even try cutting back on the sugar next time. This recipe is a keeper!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

Reviewed: Dec. 22, 2010

these are amazing!!! I made them in a little reese cup shaped candy mold and they are perfect. I did a mixture of milk chocolate and semi sweet chips because that was what I had and they are so much better than real Reese cups. I love that they are gluten free too!

Oreo™ Cookie Bark

Reviewed: Nov. 22, 2010

this was a huge hit last Christmas and I will for sure be making it again! So easy and yet I was asked many times for the recipe.

Baked Teriyaki Chicken

Reviewed: May 10, 2010

so yummy! I didn't have any vinegar so I left that out and I used chicken breasts instead of thighs. I will be making this often now. I didn't use foil to line the pan and will be regretting that later!

Cola Cake

Reviewed: Apr. 2, 2010

I used a white cake mix and a can of diet Sprite. I did add one egg white just incase and it turned out perfectly! It was a huge hit at the party last night and no one could tell anything was different. It saved about 50 calories per cupcake which is well worth it to me!

Pretzel Turtles

Reviewed: Sep. 14, 2009

These are super easy and highly addictive! I used rollos and they are so good but the dove chocolates probably squish prettier because of their shape. I will be making these for every get together this Christmas and they will make great teacher gifts!

Oat Applesauce Muffins

Reviewed: Aug. 27, 2009

very good muffins! I used paper liners though and half of each muffin wouldn't peel off of the paper. I added cinnamon and vanilla to mine to give them some flavor. Next time I think I'll add some grated apple too. I'm going to add flax too for some added fibre.

A Good Easy Garlic Chicken

Reviewed: Aug. 20, 2009

It was good but probably would have been better with the gravy. I give the chicken 3 stars but my picky 5 year old gives it 5 stars.

Oven Stew II

Reviewed: Apr. 25, 2006

This is the best stew I've ever had! It definately didn't have enough liquid for me though so I doubled the amount of water. I also used all frozen veggies except the potatoes. I also used cut up marinating steak instead of the stewing beef to cut out some of the fat. I also didn't have stewed tomatos so I used canned diced and it worked well.
