Mint Chocolate Cake With Mint Cream Cheese Icing/Frosting

Posted by chungry1  

NOTE: THIS REVIEW IS FOR ICING ONLY I used the icing in this recipe for a different chocolate mint cake. The icing is amazing. The peppermint and cream cheese complement each other in a way so that neither is too strong. Have already used twice... — Chef #719736 Nov 1, 2009

Sauteed Spinach and Portabella Mushrooms

Posted by Stefanie #3  

Wonderful recipe! I omitted parsley and only used a 10 oz bag of spinach (curly leaf, which worked fine), but kept everything else the same. I drained off the liquid before serving. This is very, very good and I will make it again and again. The... — Chef #719736 Oct 7, 2009

Super Easy Gluten Roast

Posted by Buckethead  

This was pretty good. I did not have the Lipton onion soup mix, but the other reviewers made me think that was ok, and it was. I used a vegetarian fake chicken bouillon and added some soy sauce and liquid smoke to give it a more beefy flavor. I... — Chef #719736 Sep 7, 2009

Cinnabon Cake

Posted by Sassy in da South  

This is a very good cake. It's surprisingly easy to make considering how complicated it looks. I used the suggestion of pouring the cinnamon butter mixture on top and swirling in with a knife. I wish I'd swirled a little more, but the cake still... — Chef #719736 Aug 31, 2009

Traditional Greek Salad

Posted by Moody  

I used lettuce and added feta cheese, so my review is mostly for the dressing...I've been searching for a Greek salad dressing that wasn't too oily and this was PERFECT!! I will make this again and again. Thanks. — Chef #719736 Aug 18, 2009

Curried Chickpeas & Kale

Posted by Dancer^  

This was really a 2.5 star dish for me. My boyfriend and I thought it smelled terrific, but when it came down to eating it, we were pretty underwhelmed. We ended up adding extra curry and a lot of salt and that made it ok, but not great. The... — Chef #719736 Aug 17, 2009

Sugared Cranberries and Sage Leaves

Posted by MarraMamba  

I used this method to make sugared strawberries and they turned out beautifully. Very good and easy method for sugaring if you don't want to use egg whites. I will definitely use this method again. — Chef #719736 Jul 16, 2009

Pink Champagne Cake

Posted by Jessica K  

Sorry, but this cake was nothing special. Neither I nor the 3 other people eating it could detect the champagne at all. It just tasted like a slightly better version of a cake made from a cake mix. I followed the directions exactly for both cake... — Chef #719736 Jul 16, 2009

Honey Bun Cake

Posted by Jenny White  

I noticed there is a * on the 300 degree cooking instruction, but no further mention is made in these instructions. The cake was NOT done after 1 hour at 300. I had to cook for 15 additional minutes at 350. Then, the top was starting to be a bit... — Chef #719736 Jan 22, 2009

Whiskey Cake (Cake Mix)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Jamie Lynne  

Try this with bourbon!! The batter was a glue-like consistency, so I added a half cup of milk. The cake still came out just fine. Next time I will try it as written and see what happens. I don't have a bundt pan so I used a regular cake pan, which... — Chef #719736 Nov 8, 2008

Chocolate Mint Bundt Cake

Posted by Marie  

Wonderful and easy! I made this for my dad's 50th birthday and it was a huge hit. I used the Andes mints (did not stir with any flour. The batter was way too thick for them to sink anyway). Do not own a Bundt pan, so used two 8 1/2 inch pans. 50... — Chef #719736 Nov 8, 2008

Greek Salad

Posted by SouthernBell2627  

Wonderful recipe! All the greek salad dressing recipes I've seen on here have been way too heavy on the oil. This was much better. We will definitely be making this again. Changes were: omitted cucumber, used Mezzetta Mediterranean Olive Antipasto... — Chef #719736 Sep 8, 2008

Greek Salad Dressing

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by MJ & BARB HUNDAHL  

My boyfriend and I both found this to be way too oily. All we could taste was the olive oil. I tried to doctor up the recipe by adding more vinegar, but it was unsalvageable. If you like a very oily dressing, go for this one! — Chef #719736 Sep 8, 2008

Peach (Or Mango) Margarita

Posted by Leslie in Texas  

I was very glad to see a Peach Margarita recipe that didn't include peach schnapps. However, this was just way too strong for me. I used enough ice to make it a slushy type texture. I even used a whole peach, instead of a half. I also tried adding... — Chef #719736 Aug 4, 2008

Dobby & Winky's Butterbeer

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Erin_1984  

We also had the stuff that kept floating to the top, which was cinnamon! I love cinnamon, but 1 tsp was waaaaaaaaaaay too much. I can't believe no one else thought so. We plan to make this again using just a pinch. Good flavor overall, since as... — Chef #719736 Jul 17, 2008

Low-Fat Low-Sugar Butterbeer

The basic flavor is really good, but 1 tsp is WAY too much cinnamon. I love cinnamon, and it was just way way way too much. I plan to make it again and just use a pinch of cinnamon. — Chef #719736 Jul 17, 2008

Potion # 9

Posted by Angela Dawn  

I increased the 7-Up (used diet, actually) to one oz. and omitted the raspberry Chambord. In addition, I didn't have any lemons, so I added a dash of lemon juice. This was a wonderful drink. It reminded me of fruit punch. Loved it, and will... — Chef #719736 Feb 15, 2008

Roasted Asparagus

Posted by jean1  

This was very good! It was so easy and made an elegant side dish for my meal. Great recipe. I used the bagged parmesan cheese instead of the kind that comes in a plastic shaker, and it was delicious! — Chef #719736 Feb 15, 2008
