Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies III

Reviewed: Jul. 18, 2011

I didn't realise i had no vanilla, so used orange extract instead. also i dont like white chocolate and had no walnuts, so missed them out too. everything else i kep exactly the same. They're really good :-) I put them in the oven for exactly 8 minutes, which was perfect. ANy longer and they'd have been over done. Will make these again when i have vanilla!!!

Great-Grandma's Lemon Cake

Reviewed: May 8, 2010

This was a little heavy but soo good! Rather than the iing sugar dusting, i added my own drizzle. I did this by combining the zest of 1 lemon with the juice of 1 lemon, 5 tbsp bottled lemon juice and about 1/2 cup of fondant icing sugar (fondant confectioners sugar). As soon as I removed the cake from the oven, i drizzled this on top, allowed to cool and served. I will definitely make this again!

Barm Brack

Reviewed: Oct. 28, 2008

Yum! I originally tried this on holiday in Wales this past "summer" and it was delicious. It was recommended to me to try it spread with butter, the way the Welsh have it, and I loved it. This recipe is the exact of what I had in that little cafe in Wales and tastes fantastic. A definite must on my table this winter

Easy Granola Bars

Reviewed: Aug. 13, 2008

These are pretty good. I added seedless raisens rather than cranberries because of the cost, and couldnt find anything other than organic chocolate drops so used smashed up plain cooking chocolate pieces. I also missed out coconut because I can't stand the stuff! They're really moreish and my daughter loves them. We will be taking them camping with us on Saturday.

The Best Banana Bread

Reviewed: Jul. 1, 2008

I was surprised this recipe didnt state a pan size, so I just guessed. I didnt mash the banana completely, i left it chunky, I also followed advice from previous reviewers and used half cup brown sugar and half cup white. This was lovely :-)

Sweet Potato Corn Bread

Reviewed: Jun. 22, 2008

I wasn't overly impressed with this recipe. I expected a good taste of sweet potatoes in this, but I could only really taste baking powder. I would cut out at least 1 tsp of baking powder, add some cracked black pepper and add some corn kernals in with the batter in future.

White Bread I

Reviewed: Jun. 14, 2008

I made this the old fashioned way - by hand as my bread machine is on the blink. It was lovely. I left it to rise over night with a damp cloth over the top to stop it drying out and then baked on 175C for 1 hour on the bottom shelf of the oven. I then left it to cool with another damp cloth over the top to soften the crust. It was lovely, so tasty I could have eaten the whole loaf!! Great with home made butter. Yum.

Crazy Crust Pizza Dough

Reviewed: May 24, 2008

i halved this because it was for a piza for my daughter. She is allergic to citric acid, and as that is a preservative in so many things, making stuff from scratch has become commonplace. She enjoyed this crust, and has asked that we make it again. So easy she helped make it with me - and she's 4! :-)

Angie's Perfect Dinner Rolls

Reviewed: Apr. 16, 2008

these were soft but a bit heavy. I made some of them into calzones by rolling them flat, spreading tomato puree, grated cheese and salami accross, then folding over and baking. They were great! :-D

Best Bread Machine Bread

Reviewed: Feb. 3, 2008

I followed recommendations of adding an extra 1/2 tsp salt, and it rose beautifully. This was really soft inside with a crunchy outside. I like this, and didn't taste any oil flavour - as others said they had. This is soft enough to use for sandwiches.

Banana Bread VIII

Reviewed: Jan. 27, 2008

I'm giving this 2 stars because once I had mixed in all the ingredients, I had a dry mess! There was no way this was "pouring" anywhere!!! I had to add 1/2 cup of milk to get a batter consistancy, so that I could pour it into my loaf pan. Once baked, this was great, not too sweet, and very banana-ry. I would say this is more of a cake than a bread though, because I have tried other banana breads that are more like a bread than a cake. This would be good with raisens added in too.

Basil Chicken over Angel Hair

Reviewed: Jan. 26, 2008

I omitted the hot pepper sauce because i was eating this with my 4 yr old daughter, and i knew she wouldn't like it hot. This was great, so more-ish! I couldnt stop eating it!!! Definitely a regular on our table.
