My mother made a cake very much like this one when I was a kid. It came out awesome! One word of advice tho, this cake, for some odd reason, it needs to sit for a good day or two before it is moist. When it first comes out of the oven it is a bit dry. I think the pudding mix just has to sit or something. Because by the next day it is so moist and oh so good! So be patient and make it the day before you want to serve it. Well worth the wait.

Sweet and Sour Chicken I

Reviewed: Oct. 10, 2009

Very good recipe. The things that I will tweak next time do not effect the rating. The sauce is good but it was a bit too sweet for us, I will add a touch more vinegar next time. And I need to play with the temperature of the oil or the thickness of the batter. I had a small issue with the batter not adhering to the chicken. But the flavor overall, awesome!!! Just like chinese take out! and no msg!

Pinto Bean Chili

Reviewed: Mar. 10, 2009

this is a really nice recipe, easy to prepare, worth the time. dont be deterred by the other reviewers speaking about too much heat or lack of heat. chili seasoning is a very personal thing, after you add the tomatoes there is still plenty of time to adjust the chili powder and cumin to your individual taste. the vinegar is awesome, this really adds to it. i just about doubled all the seasonings to get it to where it was hot enough for us. but we are portuguese descent and love our food hot!!! also, its great that this was written for using dried beans. i also got a box from angel food ministries and didnt know what to do with dried pinto beans. so nice to not have to buy a packet of premade seasoning for this recipe as mentioned in a few other 'award' winning recipes on this site. this is definately my new chili recipe, thanks!!!

Shrimp Etouffee II

Reviewed: Feb. 24, 2009

i followed the recipe exactly and it came out fantastic! only thing i changed was i dont like to cook in the microwave so i made it on the stove sauteeing the first four ingredients in the melted butter and then added the rest and continued to cook for about five minutes. great recipe, just enough hot for us and we are a family of portuguese that love hot food! next time we will be adding chourico to it for variety! awesome, thanks so much for a great recipe.

Pineapple Upside-Down Cake II

Reviewed: Mar. 15, 2008

this is a favorite of mine. i havent reviewed it before because i kept waiting for some of the problems other people spoke of to happen so i could see maybe what is going on and i might be able to help. i have made this recipe a good half a dozen times at least and well, i havent had a problem yet. it's moist, tastes even better the next day, always comes right out of the pan, i do butter the pan well....great recipe. and i really love using fresh pineapple.

Chocolate Cornstarch Pudding

Reviewed: Oct. 25, 2006

this is so easy and so good! you will never make box chocolate pudding again! if you dont like a skin on the top then use the plastic wrap method. so creamy, so chocolatey, so yummy!!!! keep stirring and dont get tempted to turn up the temperature or it will burn on the bottom of the pan. worth the tiny bit of patience! pure comfort food.
