Chocolate Cream Pie

Posted by KITTENCAL  

The art of making pie crust is one which has alluded me so far, so a couple days ago, I decided to make another attempt using my Grandma's recipe. Of the 4 crusts that it yields, I actually turned out one that I knew I could fill, so, I made this... — Two Socks Nov 16, 2009

Cinnamon Sugar Snack Mix

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by LonghornMama  

This is a great recipe, but I think it could be made even better with some minor adjustments. When I make this again, and I will, I plan to use an even mixture of Chex, Kix, and Honey Comb cereals, along with some pecan or walnut pieces, and I... — Two Socks Nov 5, 2009

Pan-Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Herb-and-Mustard Crust

Posted by Tracy K  

This is perhaps the most enthusiastic review I have given anyone this whole year on this site, so forgive me if I have a hard time containing myself. This dish was so easy to put together and so delicious that it's hard to find the right words... — Two Socks Oct 26, 2009

Big Ol' Mess (Smoked Sausage in Spicy Sweet Sauce)

Posted by Bone Man  

I stumbled on to this recipe after trying to figure out what to do with a pound of chipotle-flavored smoked sausage a friend gave me a couple days ago. I didn't have any jars of sweet and sour sauce, so I used #350238 from here on the site, and... — Two Socks Sep 14, 2009

Kittencal's Restaurant-Style Chinese Sweet and Sour Sauce

Posted by KITTENCAL  

I needed a homemade sweet and sour sauce to use in Big Ol' Mess (Smoked Sausage in Spicy Sweet Sauce) and settled on this one. I started out by using a full cup of pineapple juice and cutting back on the white sugar by a few tablespoons and added a little powdered ginger, but... — Two Socks Sep 14, 2009

Buffalo Chicken Casserole

Posted by SLColman  

I had to make a few minor adjustments to this recipe. First, I've never seen a can of cream of celery soup that is 14 oz. so I made up the difference by doubling the sour cream to 1 cup. I also increased the hot sauce slightly to 1/3 cup, and... — Two Socks Aug 15, 2009

Vanilla-Scented Granola

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Bev  

Every granola recipe I have ever tried up to this point has lacked any real flavor and wasn't anywhere near sweet enough for me, so I made a couple of minor changes when I made this recipe yesterday. I used 5 tablespoons butter in place of the... — Two Socks Aug 14, 2009

Kittencal's Jalapeño Cheddar Cheese Bread

Posted by KITTENCAL  

I followed this recipe almost to the letter, using sesame seeds for the top, and adding an extra jalapeno. While the bread was good, I found the cheese flavor to be a bit lacking, even after using 10 oz. of grated, good-quality sharp cheddar.... — Two Socks Jun 18, 2009

Libbie's Delicate White Cake

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Dienia B.  

I debated whether to assign any stars to this review, but I decided it needed to be done. This looked like a good recipe, even though I had my doubts about the low oven temperature. The batter came together easily enough and had a light,... — Two Socks Jun 15, 2009

Olive Oil, Garlic, and Crushed Red Pepper Pasta Sauce

Posted by JackieOhNo!  

I honestly did not have high expectations for this recipe, but decided to give it a try after a former roommate of mine told me how good it was. I was very pleasantly surprised how easy this was to make and how incredibly light and delicious it... — Two Socks May 22, 2009

Baked Chicken and Rice With Honey-Mustard Sauce

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

I have had major problems with baked chicen and rice recipes in my past what with overcooked rice and dry, rubbery chicken in an incredibly bland sauce. But, I knew I had to give this recipe a try, though with some modifications. I used boneless... — Two Socks May 6, 2009

I am surprised I have not yet rated this recipe being I have made these so many times. This recipe makes a great little snack, especially if you take the liberty of adding just a touch of spice, as I usually do...I like about a tsp. of cinnamon... — Two Socks Apr 28, 2009

Old-Fashioned Pound Cake

Posted by Wildflour  

This is the one and only true recipe for the original pound cake, but I do things just a bit differently. This recipe, as written, tends to yield an unpleasantly dry texture, so on a friend's advice, I now add a cup of whole milk to the batter... — Two Socks Apr 17, 2009

Pizza Biscuit Bake

OK, I guess I'll be the first one to rain on this happy parade by saying I was not very impressed with this recipe, mainly because the bottom/crust was very doughy. I followed the recipe exactly, except for replacing the ground beef with cooked... — Two Socks Apr 8, 2009

Melt in Your Mouth Banana Bread

Posted by Mysterygirl  

The only reason why this recipe has no stars is because it doesn't deserve any stars at all for me. This was by far the worst, most frustrating recipe I have made from Zaar so far. The flavor of the batter was great, but the directions as to... — Two Socks Apr 6, 2009
