Obviously I must have done something wrong because these did not turn out. The batter was actually dry.. no moisture at all. I grated the zucchini on the second smallest size (the one you hold).. I can't imagine that because the zucchini shreds weren't small enough that the brownie came out this bad. IT didn't rise (yes my b.soda is good) and it's all lumpy and grainy??? I don't understand.. I'm not a beginner baker either.

Orange Cranberry Drops

Reviewed: Nov. 19, 2010

You might as well bake cranberry bread because that is what the consistency of this cookie is like. It baked more like a muffin than a cookie. Ok taste, nothing spectacular. I made some orange icing for the top that made them tastier.

Cheesy Potato and Corn Chowder

Reviewed: Aug. 19, 2009

YUMM-O! When I first looked at this recipe, it didn't look like anything special. But, wow it's so delicious! The only things I did differently were add garlic to the onion, and I did half creamed corn (which I've never bought in my life!) Don't tell anyone there are green chiles in this , and they'll be none the wiser, but they'll be asking you what that special kick is !

Apple Hermits

Reviewed: Aug. 17, 2009

I made an entire batch yesterday and they are GONE today! I admit, I ate most of them but my 2 year old helped. I am giving this 4 stars because I really think it needs a 2nd egg (which I added). The batter was really dry!! I also recommend making sure you dice your apples pretty fine, mine were a little too big. I put in pecans and did not add raisins. No icing either. I substituted half whole wheat flour, so I wasn't guilty feeding these to my daughter. I think next time I'm going to add some ginger!

Melt In Your Mouth Blueberry Cake

Reviewed: Jul. 21, 2009

I am giving it a 4 because without the changes I made, I don't think it would have been as yummy. I added a heaping handful of brown sugar to the butter/sugar mix..added extra vanilla and a dash of almond extract (totally transformed the flavor of the cake in my opinion) , and also added a few splashes of half and half bc I didnt want the cake to be too dry. I used frozen blueberries and just let them sit in cool water for a while and patted them dry before adding the flour. The cake is SO yummy, especially after adding a little cinnamon to the sugar topping. It created this delicious hard shell on the top. I have a feeling this cake will be even yummier tomorrow!!

Old Fashioned Coconut Cream Pie

Reviewed: Jul. 14, 2009

Oh.my.goodness. If you are a coconut lover, this is absolute heaven. I only did two small things different. 1) I added half teaspoon of coconut extract, half teaspoon vanilla. 2) I shaved some frozen chocolate on the top. Even without these additions, this pie would have still been great. Oh, and by the way, if it's possible-this is even better the next day. YUMMO !

Grandma's Lemon Meringue Pie

Reviewed: Jul. 12, 2009

The flavor was spot on for this pie. However, mine didn't turn out right. I had never made a meringue before, so for me the instructions were not detailed enough. I wasn't sure how long to boil the filling for. But, in the end, the pie was runny and soggy. So, I'm not sure if i cooked it too long or not long enough ? Also, I used a hand mixer for the egg whites, and I seriously beat it for at least twenty minutes. I'm going to have to throw it out. Too bad bc I can tell it's a tasty pie.

Strawnana Bread

Reviewed: Jul. 7, 2009

Really yummy!!!! Very easy to make. I didn't measure my strawberries bc I know I didn't have enough.. so mine isnt overly strawberry tasting, but still good. I added a little bit of squeezed orange juice from the orange and added about a half teaspoon of orange extract. I also did half whole wheat flour and added 1 motts strawberry applesauce cup (lessened the oil by that much). Added a few white choc chips to some of them and yumm-o !! Bake them 25 mins or so to make them muffins!

White Chocolate Fruit Tart

Reviewed: Jul. 5, 2009

Don't get me wrong, this is definately yummy... But, it's a fruit pizza with a white chocolate twist. I don't think, as other reviewers stated, that this was the "best thing ever." I used a pie pan and i definately didn't need all of the crust (which was the best part-a basic shortbread).

German Potato Pancakes

Reviewed: Dec. 25, 2008

we must have done something wrong. The potatoes didnt sit out for more than a couple mins before we mixed it in. i cant explain the taste but it was not good. but bc of all these good reviews, maybe something went wrong at our house.

New York Cheesecake III

Reviewed: Nov. 3, 2008

I HIGHLY recommend making this about 2-3 days before you plan on serving it. I made it the day before my halloween party, and it was just ok. It didnt have that "bite" i was craving. But, boy, 2 days later, its fabulous!!! And even though graham cracker crust would have been yummy, the shortbread gives it a great texture. I did add about 1/4 cup of sour cream, and lessened the cream by just a little. and i added a few squirts of lemon juice. excellent!!!

Banana Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2008

I was expecting a real "punch" of flavor with the bread, but I thought it was sort of bland. I made it for my toddler in an attempt to get some good stuff in her. But if youre just looking for something tasty, it needs some sort of glaze or topping!

Party Pinwheels

Reviewed: Aug. 16, 2008

Nothing spectacular really. The taste was bland and too salty somehow. They fell apart even after chilling. After a party I threw, many were left on the plate. sorry!
