The Best Thing You Ever Made

So what's the best thing you've ever cooked/baked? Something everyone raved about?

For me: Red Velvet Cookies

Re: The Best Thing You Ever Made

I've made a few really good things - I make some mean brownies and I used to make really good oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, but I haven't made them in a few years. I also made a version on the Baked French Toast that was posted on here and it was really delicious.

For food food, I make really good veggie lasagna. Chat Icon

I get the most raves about my pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and my maple-pecan crusted chicken cutlets. I don't think those two things are the best I have ever made but they certainly have gotten me my best compliments. Personally, I think my raspberry tart was pretty awesome. I also think my potato-chip crusted salmon always comes out good. and I made paella once it was amazing... but it's too expensive to recreate LOL.

Probably my Chicken Soup, Bolognese and Noodle Kugel..I don't bake so anything I've made was probably pretty mediocre.

Paella. I make it only once every two years. Too time consuming, but when friends get wind of it, they beg for an invite, LOL!

Re: The Best Thing You Ever Made

I really don't know if I can choose. It would probably be a toss up between:

Spinach artichoke dip
Chicken or veal parm
Baked beans
Coconut shrimp
Rainbow cookies
Red velvet cake balls

Re: The Best Thing You Ever Made

i haven't been "really" cooking for long... so not a lot comes to mind

but what does come to mind are:

* cuban black beans
* cinnamon rolls
* whole wheat pizza

whenever i ask what people want for dinner, they almost always say my home made pizza... that warms my heart

Re: The Best Thing You Ever Made

hmmm..

I think in baking the new winner is the almond cookies I made over the holiday. even my MIL who ask for nothing wants more.

there are a few things that I make wwell and I am known for: especially bolognese, meat and marinara sauce, risotto, lasagna and french onion soup.

there have been a few times when I've made one of the above and knocked it out the box.

I'll have to ask dh if there are any standouts. though he'll probably say No. Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA: I also get many requests for my burgers, guacamole, sangria, and mojitos.
