Coconut Cookies (With Oil)

Posted by eBeth  

These were... weird. They didn't really hold together and the "batter" seemed practically like granola and was really hard to mold into cookie-like shapes to put on my baking sheet. Maybe adding an egg as a couple of the other reviewers had would... — Roosie Mar 30, 2008

Sour Cream Pound Cake

Posted by Kozmic Blues  

This is *the best*. We've made it probably half a dozen times and will definitely make it again. The sour cream really adds something special to this - the flavor tastes vaguely lemony to me, which is nice. Our favorite addition is some dried... — Roosie Mar 27, 2008

Cleaning Silver

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by DoryJean54  

I found that the version of the recipe without salt and with more baking soda worked better. Salt is caustic to silver, so it seems like if baking soda works just as well (though it does have salt in it as well) it might be better to avoid pure... — Roosie Dec 1, 2007

Blueberry Gingerbread

Posted by Mysterygirl  

These were very very tasty on day 2. Day one they were pretty good but the flavors hadn't set yet and after that they got kind of soggy as someone else suggested. The flavor was good overall though and I might try this again, but I would probably... — Roosie Nov 27, 2007

Strawberry Crisp for Two

Posted by ~Leslie~  

Wonderful! I actually doubled the recipe for 2 people for a nice big breakfast. I have made this twice now (in two days) and fully intend to make it again in the future. The first time I used frozen strawberries and raspberries served with... — Roosie Nov 27, 2007

Silver Cleaning Recipe

Posted by Kimke  

This did not work quite as well as I thought it would on extremely tarnished silver. But it still worked pretty well and my things turned from black to silver-y, but not glistening like if I had used polish on them. Certainly a good method if... — Roosie Nov 27, 2007

Congo Bars

Posted by Mimi in Maine  

DH requested congo bars like his Grandma used to make and he said these fit the bill quite well. For everyone's info about 2 1/2 cups brown sugar should equal about 1 lb. We omitted the walnuts due to not having them and added a handful of... — Roosie Nov 27, 2007

Bare Pantry Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by KC_Cooker  

These were pretty good for what they are. We had a cookie-craving and bare pantries, so this sounded perfect! I was actually short on butter too, so we used part unfiltered peanut oil, which was nice and imparted a nice peanut-y flavor to the... — Roosie Nov 27, 2007

Buckwheat Cinnamon Pancakes

Posted by LUv 2 BaKE  

Quite good, a little thin - I thought that the cinnamon went very well with the buckwheat flavor but wasn't quite strong enough to show up over the flavor of the buckwheat. Not bad at all. — Roosie Oct 5, 2007

Beer Bread

Posted by Gerald Norman  

Very tasty bread and extremely easy to make and one I certainly will be making again. I used a bottle of Squatters IPA, which went quite nicely, but I can imagine this would work well with most beers with a reasonable amount of flavor (I think it... — Roosie Sep 24, 2007

Berry-Smash Muffins (Strawberry Muffins)

Posted by sydsmama  

I decided to give this a shot, and I think I've made it 4 times since then... I just couldn't stop making it! I actually used raspberries (frozen, defrosted) instead of strawberries and baked it as a bread instead of muffins. Really good flavor,... — Roosie Sep 14, 2007

Coconut Plantation Bread

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by MizzNezz  

Good flavor. A tad dry, but certainly quite nice considering there is no butter or oil. A nice light bread to enjoy for breakfast. Thanks! — Roosie Jun 17, 2006

Very Berry Coffee Cake

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

Very nice. I am omitting the stars because I increased the yogurt to milk ratio since I needed to use up my yogurt, apparently ran out of nuts so I had to omit those from the topping and only used 2 kinds of berries. The flavor was good,... — Roosie Jun 17, 2006

Blue Raspberry Fruit Shake

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by mlok  

I made this for my BF... I was hoping that I could have some, but he drank the whole thing! Guess that means it's good. I did sneak a sip and it was quite tasty, especially considering the simplicity. Blueberries and raspberries are the two... — Roosie Jun 14, 2006

Chocolate Sauce (Throw Away Your Hershey's!)

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Steve_G  

Yummy. Dark, decadent and delicious. It made me kind of nervous cooking this - I was really scared that I was going to burn it, but the directions said to boil and the instruction to "reducing heat if syrup threatens to boil over" let me know... — Roosie Jun 7, 2006

Ohh! Sweet Granola

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Rakow  

Good! I didn't do chocolate chips - just golden raisins - because all I had was full-sized and that seemed a little intimidating. I'm sure it would be delicious as Marg suggested with almond and mini chocolate chips. I used walnuts and added a... — Roosie Jun 5, 2006

Raspberry Cake

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by sugarpea  

Maybe I didn't use enough raspberries, but my cake rose around and covered some of my berries, so my pretty design didn't end up mattering so much. I liked the fact that the berries were on top, which is a nice change from cakes/breads with... — Roosie Jun 5, 2006

Foam Soap Refill

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by jp mims  

This worked great. I just used the old bottle for some Kiss My Face foaming handsoap and used Basis facewash as the soap for the recipe. It's a little less thick than the original product, but I am not sure if that is because of the recipe or... — Roosie May 3, 2006

Daphne’s Cinnamon Oatmeal Muffins

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by A Messy Cook  

These muffins don't have the gummy texture that baked goods made with oat flour often have nor were they dry as baked goods made with oats can often be! I was worried as the batter seemed a tad thin, but they turned out great. I added a handful... — Roosie Feb 12, 2006
