Banana Pudding

Posted by Tams67  

Quick and easy to prepare, this was the perfect dessert to bring to large Thanksgiving gathering ... loved by kids and adults alike! Made with unsweetened Silk Soy Milk instead of whole milk, my finished pudding looked especially festive topped... — aloha808 Nov 27, 2009

King Arthur Flour: the Best Fudge Brownie Ever

Posted by dmac085  

After discovering this recipe this past summer, I ended up making it 5 times in about 3 weeks for different special occasions — without a doubt the best brownie you'll ever taste! Great with bittersweet chocolate chips and walnuts as add-ins!... — aloha808 Nov 8, 2009

Coconut Cookies

Posted by liz timm  

These are simple to make and very tasty! I've been making them for a couple of years and didn't realize I never rated them. I use food coloring to dye the coconut — Orange for Halloween, Red/Green for Christmas; a popular cookie with coconut... — aloha808 Aug 23, 2009

Barefoot Contessa Pb Choc Chunk Cookies

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Chef #1219597  

Another winner from Ina — I love her recipes! I used my largest cookie scoop (a little bigger than golf ball size balls of dough) and made 33 cookies, with Costco's Natural Peanut Butter and Nestles Chocolate Chunks. The cookies did not spread... — aloha808 Aug 17, 2009

Crumb Topped Banana Muffins

Posted by MizzNezz  

I made a double batch of these the other night to bring to a meeting at work the following day; made 19 average size muffins but I must have overfilled the cups because they did rise up and over my individual baking cups. It was hot, humid and... — aloha808 Aug 15, 2009

Low-Fat Buffalo Chicken Strips

Posted by Chef #738454  

These were so simple to make and were the perfect topping on my mixed greens salad! Thanks for the cooking tip — my package of (10) tenders weighed 1.20 lbs; perfectly cooked in 13-14 minutes! Next time I'll try it without the flour and add... — aloha808 Aug 10, 2009

All Grown-Up Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Posted by fawn512  

The only cookie sheets I own are air-cushion ones so that probably affected the shape of my cookies — very flat, not puffy as is the photos, but still chewy. While the overall flavor is sweet and mild, the problem I have is with the gritty... — aloha808 Jun 15, 2009

Almond Joy Cookies

Posted by Vseward (Chef~V)  

Not too sweet and pretty tasty but I wished they had more coconut flavor — the texture of the coconut was there, but the almonds and chocolate seem to mask the flavor. The next time, I will add Coconut (and just a drop of) Almond extract. Made... — aloha808 Mar 29, 2009

Scott's Original Burnt Cream

Posted by momaphet  

Definitely the best Créme Brulee! Here in HI, we have a Kinkaids restaurant (same family of restaurants as Scotts Seafood) ... I got this recipe from them on a 3x5 card about 25 years ago and misplaced it — mahalo for posting! — aloha808 Mar 24, 2009

Green Tea Cookies

Posted by Poison_Ivy  

I doubled the recipe but ran a little short on Matcha. The dough was extremely stiff and I almost broke 2 cookie scoops while portioning it out, but I like the shape of the cookies with the scoop, much better than if I used a spoon, or took the... — aloha808 Feb 26, 2009

Surfer Bars

This looked like a recipe that would travel well, so I made it for a birthday gift and sent it (today) from HI to CA. I brought the extra bars into the office and got mixed reviews; some thought they were way too sweet, most thought they were... — aloha808 Feb 26, 2009

Black-Bottom Banana Bars

Posted by Debster  

Super moist (almost wet) but that is probably because I used 3 medium bananas that yielded about 2-1/4 cups of mashed fruit. It baked up nicely in 25 minutes in my 9x13 Dansk cast iron baker. I brought them to the office today and while they were... — aloha808 Feb 7, 2009

Orange Vanilla Chip Cookies

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

I added 1/2 teaspoon of Fiori di Sicilia from King Arthur to boost the orange flavor. These are too sweet for me but will make a nice addition to my Christmas Cookie Gift Bags and Boxes — next time I will try them with try them with Semi or... — aloha808 Dec 14, 2008

Coconut Bread

Posted by No Spam  

5 Stars for taste and texture on the one pan of (12 cavity) mini bundt cake muffins but the 8x4 Loaf Pan took 1-1/2 hours to bake through (it just came out of the oven) with the last 20 minutes, the oven temperature up to 325. It's very dark and... — aloha808 Dec 1, 2008

Orange Cranberry Bread

Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake

I agree, these are the best Lemon Bars! I have been making a very similar recipe from a book called Cookies by Bess, published in 1980. The Shortbread base is exactly the same but the Lemon topping calls for 1-1/2 cups of Sugar and no BP or... — aloha808 Oct 1, 2008
