7/4/26 Did 8 peaches in 9x13. Didn't peel; it tasted fine but did affect texture slightly. Did 1.5x the topping compared to the original and it still didn't have adequate coverage; should double next time.

Made for Jon's Bday 8/26/25 and Father's Day 6/21/26. Too much butter in crust; first time it melted out into the oven, second time I tried a water bath, which kept the butter in and it was too much. 1.5x'd per suggestion of allrecipes users. This is about half of a family pack of oreos (just the cookies, not the cream). Also did 1.5x the cream topping the second time around which was the appropriate amount

3/7/26 for Amanda's bday party. Doubled recipe and had issues with food processor being too small. Also accidentally used self-rising flour, so texture was off. Cake overbaked at 55 mins; next time would check first at 40. Toasting and grinding almonds a PIA; would be much easier to sub same weight of almond flour. A mediocre bake by me, but the recipe has potential if executed better

Made to go w baked alaska. Subbed vanilla in for lemon juice. Excellent

1/3/26 For dinner party w/ Steffan&Brittney + Heather/Matt. Needed to stir more; top of beef was burned but still tasted great. Used 2c wine and 2.5c beef stock; next time would do 3c wine as it wasn’t enough liquid and had to add more stock after it came out of the oven. Straining sauce not necessary. Next time would cook pearl onions separately as the original recipe calls for; they completely melted into stew and weren’t discernible. Mushrooms v good; did add salt/pepper to them as they cooked. Served w mased potatoes; need about 2.5 pounds to go wit tis quantity of stew.
