Smoked Salmon Spread

Reviewed: Oct. 15, 2006

Very good spread w/ the alterations of way more tobasco sauce, and I also used some sour cream mixed in with the cream cheese to cut the consistancy. I would make this again.

Chocolate Chip Shortbread Cookies II

Reviewed: Jul. 10, 2006

I hate to rate a recipe when I have to make alterations to it, but I didn't have nuts so I used extra choc chips and almond extract instead of coconut - turned out awesome. I did burn my first try, but that could be my tempermental oven, I used parchment paper for the rest of them. This is a very versital easy recipe - you could change the mix-ins and extracts. It's a keeper!

Finger Sandwich Butter Cookies

Reviewed: Jun. 26, 2006

Very good cookie - they have become a staple in my Christmas cookie collection. I do not add the red food coloring. I use a pastry bag with extra large star tip to pipe them and then put rasberry perserves in between two, dip one end of the sandwich in chocolate and colored sprinkles.

Oven-Baked Caramel French Toast

Reviewed: May 14, 2006

I've been making this recipie for a while for brunch. Be very careful not to burn the bottom of it. Also good with a sprinkling of sugar/cinnaman mixture on top before it goes in the oven instead of the added layer of carmel sauce. I also heat up the syrup in a sauce pan w/ more pecans, pour it over right before you serve it and serve with sliced bananas around the sides of the serving platter. The type of pan you use for this makes a huge difference as far as sticking and burning - the best luck I've had so har has been a ceramic baking dish - glass and metal has burned

Best Carrot Cake Ever

Reviewed: Mar. 26, 2005

Good but something was a little off. I will try it again, but next time use more walnuts (use more and bigger pieces if you like chunky carrot cake) and more cinnamon which it absolutely needs. It needs to be served chilled - much better. Carrot cake is my favorite dessert - so I've tried a lot - this one left us a little disappointed.. I don't think it lives up to its name but it's good and I will try again w/ those adjustments to fit my personal taste and see what happens.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Squares

Reviewed: Mar. 26, 2005

They are a good candy type treat; not a Reeses but very very close and very, very good! I've been making them for two years now for the holidays.

Whipped Cream Cream Cheese Frosting

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2005

Don't expect this to be a true cake icing - it will not pipe and in my opinion doesn't even have that great of a taste. I made this icing for a carrot cake for a party and am very disappointed. I used it to fill the middle so I didn't waste it and made more traditional cream cheese icing to frost it.
