Cookie Dough Craving!

Posted by qotw13  

This is wonderful! I did make a few alterations: cut the sugars to 1Tablespoon each (I'm too lazy to do 4 tsp), added only 1 tsp milk, upped to flour to 1/4 cup, added a pinch of salt, and mixed in 1 tsp each of oats and peanut butter- just great! — TinkerToy Aug 9, 2009

Soft Snickerdoodle Cookies

Posted by Juju Bee  

This is the softest snickerdoodle I've ever tasted! But it's not doughy and gooey- just light and absolutely tender! I didn't have cream of tartar, so I omitted it. But next time I want to try adding 1 tsp of key lime juice- yum! I also only had... — TinkerToy Jul 6, 2009

The BEST Strawberry Smoothie EVER!

Posted by stephL  

I altered this one a bit by using half milk, half water, and adding 3/4 tsp of vanilla and 2 Tbsp sugar. Also, all I had on hand was mixed berries instead of straight strawberries. It is so good! Next time I think I'll use all milk and add a bit... — TinkerToy May 29, 2009

Low-Fat Vegan Cookie Dough

Posted by Chef #703565  

To be honest, this wasn't my favorite. The syrup and applesauce made the finished product very gummy and elastic. In the end it tasted kind of floury and had a little bit of a metallic taste to it (most likely from the baking powder). I cut the... — TinkerToy May 20, 2009

Kittencal's Chocolate Buttercream Frosting/Icing

Posted by KITTENCAL  

This was pretty good. I don't really like any frosting other than cream cheese. But this wasn't too bad. I only used 1/2 cup cocoa and ended up adding about 1 T of milk. It was really chocolatey, and I would probably add a bit more milk next time... — TinkerToy Apr 20, 2009

Apple or Pear Crisp for One

This is the single BEST dorm-room dessert out there! It's a decent portion size, low-cal, filling, and SO satisfying! I like just a little more topping, so I simply heap my measurements... Good work, I love this recipe***UPDATE*** Just made this... — TinkerToy Apr 16, 2009

Why-I-Joined-Zaar Carrot Cake

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Lennie  

This was really good! My first time making a carrot cake from scratch- it is so worth it! It did, however, take me about and hour and a half to shred all of the baby carrots I had cluttering my fridge. I cooked mine in a 9x13 pan and it was... — TinkerToy Apr 5, 2009

Kittencal's Old Fashioned Rice Pudding

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by KITTENCAL  

Even when altered, this is a fantastic recipe! I used 1/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup honey, cut the milk down to three cups, used a 12oz. can of evaporated milk, and added the reserved juice from a can of mandarin oranges, about 1/2 cup. This made a... — TinkerToy Mar 30, 2009

I'm sorry, but these just didn't do it for me. It was really dense and flavorless. I'm sad that I wasted my peanut butter — TinkerToy Mar 30, 2009

The Best Brownies

Posted by Juenessa  

Hallelujah! I've been looking for a recipe that doesn't use granulated sugar and haven't found a decent one anywhere. So I decided to alter one that was already fantastic. I made this as-is except I subbed 1/2 Cup honey and 1/2 Cup applesauce for... — TinkerToy Mar 22, 2009

Basic Pancake Mix

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sackville  

I halved this recipe and made exactly as directed, including vanilla. It is phenomenal! My batter looked a tad thin, but I just went with it and they fluffed up beautifully once on the skillet. I ended up with six light and lovely pancakes. Next... — TinkerToy Mar 21, 2009

Sugar-Free Applesauce Brownies

Posted by lizzyizzie  

I wasn't so enthusiastic about these at first, but they grew on me. I like fudgy, dense brownies, and these were very light and cakey. Not horrible, but not my style. I rated them three stars because I added 1/4 cup honey, an extra 1/2 tsp... — TinkerToy Mar 21, 2009

German Pancakes

Posted by ~Ri  

Wow! These are fantastic! Not too eggy or too thick, but definitely more substantial than your average crepe. The whole recipe yielded 30 small/medium pancakes for me. I slightly underfilled my flour measurements, used 1/8 tsp cinnamon and a dash... — TinkerToy Mar 16, 2009

Ihops Pancakes

Posted by carebear68  

I'm sorry, these just didn't work out great for me. I halved the recipe and made as directed except that I added 1/4 tsp vanilla and 1/4 tsp cinnamon- as others had described it as lacking flavor. When I went to pour that pancakes they spread WAY... — TinkerToy Mar 14, 2009

Doomed Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough "for Cheesecake"

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by scancan  

VERY soft and VERY sweet. I was making it to eat as-is, so I made half a batch, underfilled my sugar measurements, added about a Tablespoon of flour, and added 1/4 teaspoon of salt because I like my dough a little salty. Very delicious!*******... — TinkerToy Mar 6, 2009

Instant Oatmeal Cookie

Not bad at all! I tried it once using oats instead of an oatmeal package and it didn't turn out very well. The second time, I used maple brown sugar mix and it turned out wonderfully! — TinkerToy Mar 5, 2009

Banilla Ice Cream (Raw Food)

I'm always looking for good alternatives to the traditional high-calorie, high-fat comfort food. This is perfect! I have no honey or agave nectar, so I just made it with the banana, peanut butter and vanilla. I also omitted the salt, since I had... — TinkerToy Mar 1, 2009

Sweet Banana Snack

THANK YOU for rescuing me when I have the munchies! This is perfect. The bananas are sweet enough for me, so I omit the sugar. I also like to microwave for 10 seconds- warm, sweet, delicious, low-calorie comfort food. Thank you! — TinkerToy Feb 26, 2009

Cracker Barrel Grilled Chicken Tenders

I'm a poor college student, so instead of lime juice and honey, I used lemon juice and maple syrup. It turned out wonderfully! Not too dry and not too bland either. I paired it with some sweet chili dipping sauce and cus cus for a wonderful Sunday... — TinkerToy Feb 22, 2009

Coffee House Coffee Cake

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by yooper  

I halved the recipe and cooked for 35 minutes and it was underdone in the middle and didn't puff up very much. Next time I'll really whip the butter and sugars and beat the egg until fluffy before I add it. Also, I will cook it a bit longer. All... — TinkerToy Feb 16, 2009
