I have a tip from an accident. The first show I did as a consultant was 1.5 years ago, and I made the Chocolate Pecan Lattice Tart. While practicing this at home first, instead of using pizza crust, I accidentally used pie crust. It turned out fabulous and I then made it that way at the party...

Every year our high school band does a fundraiser called dinner in the park and every year they have an auction and action off goodies. So this year my friend asked me if I would make a recipe for her and we picked out the peanut butter torte in the SB cookbook. When I got to the park my friend...

Did anyone else find this dry? We had it at our meeting tonight and I found it very dry. Maybe it was because my director made the cake part ahead of time so it was room temp not warm/hot and the marshmallows and cups didn't melt at all. It was basically brownie with melted pb chips and...

Anyone tried a variation with peanut butter? I have a new consultant who wants to use something like this for a grand opening. Thought I would ask before trying to reinvent the wheel.

My host for the end of May has a guest coming whoose interested in a Chocolate Fondue Pot, smaller size with a Tealight. Does Pampered Chef carry something like this or could I recommend a Product that would work for her. I think I saw recipes for it online. Thank you.
