Reviews

Has anyone made this? I'm very disappointed. I ended up scooping out most of the middle - it just wouldn't bake - it was like soup. The only thing I did different from the recipe - I used a hand mixer instead of a food processor. I didn't think that would make a difference. about 1 year ago by holliweller
