"These were a huge hit at the Halloween party I went to this evening. I made the very small bite size, and they went fast. At least one person told me I had ruined them for Reese's. For the stems, I made my own buttercream and used cocoa powder to make it chocolate, then added green food coloring to get that brownish-green color pumpkin stems tend ..."

"I made this as a dessert, and served it over vanilla bean ice cream. It was fantastic. I used light brown sugar, and used more brown and less white. I had a mix of honeycrisp and cortland apples, and they came out delicious. The juice that cooks out of them makes a luscious apple-flavored caramel."

"This stood up so well to my substitutions and mistakes. I had about 1 1/4 c once I mashed the bananas I wanted to use up, so I halved the recipe. Well, I halved the flour, mixing white and wheat, and then forgot to halve the baking soda. So, I needed more acid and substituted buttermilk instead of the hot water. I also put in a pinch of cinnamon. ..."

"These were very good. I made them almost exactly as written, the exceptions being I used butter to saute the onions instead of olive oil because I prefer the taste, and I cooked the onion much longer, because I like it soft all the way through. I actually used medium (not large potatoes because I had four of them, and I still found that they were..."

"This was fantastic. I didn't have enough butter, so I used a quarter cup (all I had and added some canola oil. It was soft and creamy, sweet, and had excellent texture. This is going to be come a regular hearty side dish."

"These were fantastic, everyone loved them. I think good bacon makes a big difference here. I used uncured maple bacon. Also, I ended up mixing light and dark brown sugar. I made them up the night before, put the sugar on top, and then stuck them in the fridge. The sugar and fat interacted and dissolved overnight. I was a little worried at first, b..."

"I made this cake for my and my friend's birthday party. Everyone thought it looked and tasted amazing. The cake itself had a great texture, the ganache was subtle and the praline frosting was a perfect texture. One change I made was to cut the sugar in the cake back to 1 and 1/2 cup. The praline topping was so sweet it worked out verry well to hav..."

"I made two batches of these. In both, I left out the egg white and also the orange zest (no citrus for me. Also, I put in a splash of vanilla and a tablespoon or so of canola oil. The first batch, I added a sprinkle of cinnamon and fresh ground nutmeg. The second batch, I added chocolate chips. Both were fantastic. I mixed the wet ingredients usi..."

"I am very bad at eating veggies but this soup turned out great. I sauteed the onion, pepper and carrots in some butter before I threw everything else in with the broth. Made a ton because all the guys were over. It was perfect with biscuits. I topped with sour cream, crumbled bacon, and extra shredded cheddar. Next time I might use a leek or two i..."

"I made this in a 13x9 pan so I could cut little bars/squares for people to snack on. Because it was a larger area, I make extra for the crust (about 1.5 times what the recipe says. I also threw some pecans in the food processor with the graham crackers and ginger snaps. The cheesecake itself I made exactly as the recipe said, and it came out abso..."
