"This is really delicious! I was looking for a recipe to help me use up some dried Turkish figs. That's what I used here instead of the frozen figs, and it worked great! I blended everything all at the same time, which resulted in a chunkier smoothie. For a smoother drink, I would suggest blending the dried figs with the cinnamon, honey, and s..."

"This stuff is amazing! I made the mistake of thinking the white chocolate/peanut butter mixture wasn't going to set up as well as the chocolate mixture. So, I poured the chocolate first and covered it with the white chocolate/peanut butter mix. DON'T DO THAT! I learned my lesson every time I tried to pick up a piece and got dark chocolate all over..."

"I used this dough to make a gingerbread house and a few gingerbread cut-out trees to decorate. The dough was great to work with right after being made, but (as another reviewer mentioned DO NOT put the dough in the refrigerator to use another time. I only had enough time to bake half of the dough the day I made it, so I put the rest away to use t..."

"I loved this frosting! It was really easy to make and tastes so light even though it's sweet. I used some coconut extract instead of vanilla extract because I was using this recipe to top my white cupcakes with a sprinkle of macadamia nuts on top. It was fantastic. This frosting holds up really well too! I am about to make this recipe again to top..."

"This is really great after you let it sort of marinate for a day. I used a red and yellow pepper mix and only used about 1/2 the amount in the recipe. Everything else I did the same. The dressing is really tangy and delicious. I made this for Superbowl and it was the most refreshing thing alongside all the fried foods and sweet desserts."

"You hit it right on the nose with your comment about it being very rich! I was using this "brownie" as the base for a tiger-bar-inspired cupcake. I didn't include the semi-sweet chocolate in the batter. Instead, I waited until taking the brownies (which I baked in muffin tins with liners out of the oven and then sprinkled the tops with a half and..."

"I absolutely loved this! I used a 10" springform. I was in a hurry and didn't let the cake portion cool completely. As a result, the very middle never fully set up because the cream cheese mixture sort of blended with the cake middle. It actually worked out kinda nicely because when I cut the cheesecake after chilling completely, the middle was st..."

"I'm really not sure why I haven't rated this yet because it is ABSOLUTELY wonderful!!!! The lemon vinaigrette with the pistachios is a wonderful pairing and the smoked salmon really brings a wonderful smoky salty flavor to the pasta. So delicious and so easy to make! Tastes fantastic the next day, too. Cold or warm...I like it both ways! Thanks Co..."

"UPDATE: I have also had good results using a fancy nut mix. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I just finished making these about 5 minutes ago for a (very late night dessert snack. They are delicious. I also decreased the salt to 1/2 teaspoon as another reviewer did. I put them over some vanilla bean ice cream while they were still warm. Sooooo good. And really t..."
