Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

I baked this a little less than directed as was suggested in the reviews. Turned out good. Maybe a little dry still but with the really good frosting on it no one cared! I think maybe using buttermilk instead of regular milk might help.

I don't know why the other two reviews didn't like this cake... it is delicious. The coffee really brings out the chocolate taste. I have found that many people bake cakes too long and therefore, they are dry. Try baking this cake a little less than the advised time...it is very moist and the only chocolate cake recipe I use!

Quite possibly the worst cake I have ever eaten!!! Dry, dense (and not in a good way), and just not worth eating.

This cake is dense which I like; but very dry. The texture is OK. Flavor is drug down by the dryness.
