Perfect recipe. Everyone in my family loved this pie, even my father-in-law who usually prefers more tart/natural-tasting desserts. Just the right blend of sweet and tart. Strawberry rhubarb pie is a wet pie. The filling spills out and that's okay. It's only grocery store pies, loaded with goodness knows what, that stay in perfect pieces when they are sliced.

My Grandma's Shoo-Fly Pie

Reviewed: Jul. 2, 2010

I made this recipe according to the instuctions, but adding some of the crumb (maybe 1/4) to the filling in layers. It looked amazing and according to my brother-in-law from Pittston, PA, it is exactly right. I used a deep pie dish. It was perfect. I wish I'd taken a picture. Thank you for sharing.

Treacle Scones

Reviewed: Jan. 19, 2009

These taste very good and are simple to make. They are almost bread-like, the dough comes out quite soft and a bit elastic. I used granulated sugar because I hadn't any superfine and I didn't know what mixed spice was, so I used pumpkin pie spice. I also put raw sugar on the top before baking. They are good plain, with butter, and with apple butter. I will make these again. They will travel very well.

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2006

This recipe is a life saver for my 8 year old niece, just diagnosed with Celiac's disease. She can still eat cookies! I use brown sugar in this recipe for a taste I consider closer to traditional peanut butter cookies.

Cajun Shrimp Orecchiette

Reviewed: Jun. 5, 2005

I used 1 1/2 TEASPOONS Cajun spice and 1 teaspoon of black pepper, allowed the sauce to reduce, and served over rice. I felt like a superstar chef. My husband, who is a professional chef, loved it. I will certainly make this again. It's so easy!

Dump Cake V

Reviewed: May 10, 2005

I substituted devil's food cake mix for the yellow and distributed the melted butter evenly with a spatula. I omitted nuts and coconut. The top came out like brownies. The dessert was delicious with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream.
