Grandpa's Pasta Sauce

⁽¹⁾

The sauce was too much like spagetti sauce. I cooked the pork chops in the sauce for hours and it was tender, but the pork flavor was diminished; I would prefer to taste the pork more.

Amaretto Brownies Supreme

The brownies turned out phenomenal, however, the recipe ingredients need to be reviewed. I spent an entire afternoon looking for cocoa BUTTER. I had never used it before or seen it anywhere. After spending a good amount of money on a 100% pure cocoa butter body product that was food grade, I figured out from the "directions" that the recipe intended for cocoa POWDER. It may have been my mistake for not reading the directions first as well, but that is a big mistake in the ingredients. Other than that it was great.
