Burnt Sugar Cake II

Reviewed: Jun. 12, 2013
This was a very good cake. It was light, soft and fluffy. I made it with coffee as suggested by another reviewer. It did give the cake a fantastic flavor. The coffee made the cake a little too dark though. Next time I will try it as written. Thanks for sharing this delicious recipe!

Homemade Sweet Italian Sausage (Mild or Hot)

Reviewed: Jun. 3, 2013
This was my first time making sausage. It was really delicious. The recipe has a tiny bit too much salt and pepper for my taste. That's easy to adjust. Everything else was perfect for me. This will definitely be my "base" recipe in the future. Thanks for sharing this yummy recipe!

David's Yellow Cake

Reviewed: May 13, 2013
I finally tried this cake because I had exactly 8 leftover egg yolks in the freezer. I made it with half butter and half 80% vegetable oil margarine. It was very good. I planned to frost it with caramel frosting. After tasting a little piece I trimmed off for my hungry impatient toddler, I decided to leave it unfrosted. I don't recall ever saying nah I won't frost this one. This is a very rich, very moist cake. It's good as is. (If folks are having trouble with baking scratch cakes with recipes that seem to work for others...1.)Make sure all ingredients are room temp, including the milk. This is very important. 2.)Cream butter and sugar VERY well. I only have a hand mixer, so I know it works just fine for this. Be patient and cream well. 3.)Don't over mix after the flour and milk are added. Mix more than you would for muffins. Blend well but don't go crazy. 4.)Test your oven temperature on both sides. 5.)DON'T GIVE UP! After a half dozen scratch cakes, they'll start tasting really good. After making a dozen+ of them, they'll start tasting great.) Thanks for a great recipe!

Heavenly White Cake

Reviewed: Apr. 7, 2013
This cake is fantastic. The flavor and texture are perfect. This cake will seem dry if it is cold. Bring it to room temperature for at minimum of 30-35 minutes before serving and it is perfect. Also, make sure the butter, eggs and milk are all room temperature before using. This recipe is a keeper!

Braided Easter Egg Bread

Reviewed: Mar. 25, 2013
Good recipe. I made this last year for Good Friday. I added slivered almonds and golden raisins. When it was still warm I put some vanilla frosting and sprinkles on top. I am going to make this again on Good Friday this year. Thanks for sharing.

Snickerdoodles II

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2013
These taste exactly the way snickerdoodles should. I found the dough didn't need the entire amount of flour. Thanks for sharing a yummy recipe.

Blackened Salmon Fillets

Reviewed: Mar. 16, 2013
This recipe had way too much salt for me. Half a teaspoon per piece of fish is just way too much for my household. It says four salmon fillets but doesn't say what size. I used quarter pound fillets. Maybe that was the problem. The salt really obscured the flavor of the fish. I'd try this again but with much less salt, like 1 tsp. As they say, you can always add salt but once you've ruined your dish you can't take it away.

Sweet and Sour Sauce I

Reviewed: Feb. 20, 2013
We eat sweet and sour sauce over tofu with vegetables a lot. I like to try new sweet and sour sauces. We had this one tonight. This is a good one. It's a little plain. Simplicity is a good thing in this case though. I made a double batch and refrigerated more than half. We look forward to having it again soon. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Danish Christmas Red Cabbage

Reviewed: Feb. 16, 2013
I've never had hot cabbage with sugar and vinegar. This was also the first time I've ever eaten red cabbage cooked. It was delicious! This dish is good hot or cold! It's simple but is nicely crisp and flavorful. We served it with homemade macaroni and cheese. It was a great dinner. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Good Old Fashioned Pancakes

Reviewed: Jan. 16, 2013
After trying this recipe I stopped buying pancake mix. These taste better than pancakes made from mix, are just as easy to make and are more economical. Thanks for sharing it.

Sean's Falafel and Cucumber Sauce

Reviewed: Jan. 16, 2013
This is the first time I have ever made falafel with canned chick peas. We really didn't care for it. Falafel made with soaked dried chickpeas are crunchy around the edges and soft in the middle. These were just soft. The flavor was decent but the texture really fell short. I tried this recipe because grinding chickpeas in my 3 cup capacity chopper isn't too fun lol. But after eating "real" falafel we just can't make it this way. This is better than using a dry mix though. Thanks for sharing.

Lavash Cracker Bread

Reviewed: Jan. 14, 2013
I enjoyed making this. We all enjoyed eating it. The bread has a delightful crunch. Mine didn't look like the picture but it was still quite good. It's a tiny bit tedious to make. But I probably will make it again because it's yummy. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

Asian Orange Chicken

Reviewed: Jan. 11, 2013
This is a great sauce. We eat mostly vegetarian. I made this sauce to use with broccoli and seitan in a stir fry. It's really yummy. I added quite a bit more garlic, ginger and green onion to suit our taste. Thanks for sharing this awesome recipe.

Easy Peach Cobbler

Reviewed: Dec. 27, 2012
I made 3/4 of the recipe and used a can of cherry pie filling (in a large glass pie plate) for cherry cobbler. I thought it was a bit too buttery. My boyfriend loved it! I made the recipe the same way again today for him. Thanks for sharing. :)

Best Toffee Ever - Super Easy

Reviewed: Dec. 20, 2012
This is a delicious, fun and easy candy to make. It smells great when it's cooking and tastes even better when it's done. We're sending this candy to relatives this year for Christmas. I used white bark instead of chocolate and mixed butter and margarine in some of the batches. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

World's Best Oreo® Fudge

Reviewed: Dec. 18, 2012
This didn't turn out well for me. I haven't made fudge in a long time. I've only made it a few times. But I've never had a marshmallow fudge not turn out. Still, I'm sure my lack of expertise in fudge making is to blame for this recipe's failure. It came out a little soft. My boyfriend and I both thought it had way too much butter. It made it seem a bit imbalanced. Like it was too rich in a bad way. I also made the mistake of using salted butter. The oreo and vanilla flavors worked well though. I would try this again with a recipe using less butter.
