Whole Wheat Pumpkin-Applesauce Muffins

Reviewed: Oct. 2, 2011

I left out the pecans and added currants and cranberries instead of raisins. Delicious!

This is now my go-to salsa recipe; we are done with the jarred stuff. I threw it all into the food processor and it was done in 30 seconds. I made two changes, based on the reviews I read: I added a clove of garlic and reduced the number of peppers to two (although I might do three next time.)

Mini Poppy Seed Loaves

Reviewed: Dec. 23, 2008

These are so good! They are not too sweet, but still have a lot of flavor. I forgot to add the vanilla and almond extract to the first two batches I put in the oven and they still turned out great. I just added it to the last bit of batter in the bowl, and I'm sure those will turn out great as well.

Zucchini Brownies

Reviewed: Aug. 14, 2008

These are really good! My five year old has decided that they are "the best brownies EVER!" I did add more water when I was mixing, because my batter was really dry. I just added a little bit of water at a time, until all of the flour and cocoa was moistened. I also didn't put frosting on them, although I might next time. I have to admit, I wasn't very thrilled with them on the night that I made them, but I had one the next day and changed my mind. These are great!

Zucchini Corn Fritters

Reviewed: Feb. 27, 2008

These are SO good. I made a few changes to the recipe and everyone loved them. I only added a tablespoon or so of sugar, because a half cup sounded like way too much and I wasn't going for a sweet taste anyway. I also left out the cheese, used canned corn instead of fresh and added a couple of handfuls of baby spinach, chopped into small pieces.

Luscious Buttercream Frosting

Reviewed: Feb. 21, 2008

The best buttercream recipe I've found. The only change I made was to add an extra teaspoon or two of vanilla and a bit of extra powdered sugar to help it keep its shape when I piped it onto the cake. I usually don't like icing and just scrape it off when I eat the cake, but this is really good.

Extreme Chocolate Cake

Reviewed: Feb. 21, 2008

This cake is awesome! Very moist and chocolatey. I was kind of scared to bake it when I saw how thin the batter was after adding the boiling water, but it came out just fine. I used a different icing, but will be trying the one mentioned in this recipe next time. I especially like this for cakes baked in shaped pans, because the texture is kind of dense and it holds its shape well.

Best Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie

Reviewed: Feb. 2, 2008

These cookies are awesome. The first time I made them I didn't think they seemed completely done at the end of the recommended time, so I left them in the oven longer. I made them again and only baked them for the time stated in the recipe and they are turned out perfectly. I also added coconut and chopped pecans the second time. This is probably the only chocolate chip cookie recipe I'll be using anymore.

Cinnamon Raisin Bars

Reviewed: Dec. 16, 2007

These are really good! The only change I made was to add cinnamon to the raisins as they were cooking and to use half white flour and half whole-wheat flour. I think that next time I'll halve the amount of icing, because I didn't even use all that the recipe made and I still thought it was too much.
