mexmama74 rated and reviewed the recipe Carrot-Walnut Cake

"What an awesome carrot cake! Not too dry or crumbly like other carrot cakes that I've tasted. I made this for my mother-in-law's birthday, everyone raved about it. I had to make another one when we got home, because my husband and children wanted more cake! I really liked the simplicity of the cake. Not alot of ingredients and very easy direction to follow."

mexmama74 rated and reviewed the recipe Cheesy Broccoli-Potato Soup

"This was a soup-er easy recipe to follow. Tasted pretty good, but I added some black pepper and a little more salt. Family loved it. I just served it with garlic bread. Kids didn't complain about the broccoli and never suspected the mashed potatoes. I will be making this recipe again, soon."

"This is really a tasty dish! I first made this recipe as a newlywed and that was 14 years ago!!! Well, my hubby still loves this dish. The only thing that I've changed, is that I sometimes substitute cashew for the peanuts! DELISH!"

mexmama74 rated and reviewed the recipe Luscious Lemon Squares

"These lemon squares always come out perfect. From the first time I made them, about 15 years ago, until today. I just finished making a batch. My kids and husband love them. Our aunt has a lemon tree and always gives us lemons, and my kids ALWAYS ask for these lovely squares. They're not too tart nor too sweet. Perfect!!!!"

mexmama74 rated and reviewed the recipe Chocolate-Orange Truffle Cake

"Oh my!!! This cake is sinfully delicious! I made it today for Valentine's Day. It tasted divine. Very easy recipe to follow. The only change I made, was that I substituted a dark chocolate candy bar that's flavored with orange extract, for the chocolate chips. It just helped enhance the orange flavor of the cake. If I'm ever in the mood for a guilty pleasure, you can be sure that I'm going to make this cake!!!"

mexmama74 rated and reviewed the recipe Churros

"Wow! What can I say about these churros? "Muy bueno" is what my husband said and he's Mexican. Enjoy these churros with a cup of Mexican Hot Chocolate and you've got yourself an "authentic" Mexican dessert."

mexmama74 rated and reviewed the recipe Decadent Pecan Pie

"This is THE BEST pecan pie recipe! I've been making it for years. I made it again yesterday and my hubby's family just raved about it! I like to substitute the corn syrup for maple syrup, and it's just as good. Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing. My sister-in-law substitutes the corn syrup for sweetened condensed milk, but it just isn't the same. Thank you Betty for teaching me to cook!!!!"

mexmama74 rated and reviewed the recipe Russian Tea Cakes

"I just made these cookies yesterday. Talk about easy! The only bad thing about these cookies is, that I had a full house when I was baking them and they were gone as soon as I finished them!!! My kids are already asking me to bake another batch!"

"I absolutely love this cake! My husband and kids love it too. The thing I couldn't believe was that this recipe doesn't call for any eggs. And it's such an easy cake to make. It's even a great gift idea!!!"
