September 29, 2016 at 5:16 amMay I use betty Crocker super moist chocolate fudge with the same wet ingredients you mention in your site? Or do I use the boxes wet ingredients minus the water?

July 6, 2014 at 11:15 pmWhy the different time to refrigerate the dough for the recipes, some you have to refrigerate 15 min. before baking and others 45 min.

July 6, 2014 at 11:18 pmHi Monica,
Due to the variations in the different doughs, the time required to refrigerate will vary. Hope that helps! 😉

September 5, 2013 at 7:56 amWhen you do the gifts in a jar such as cookie mixes and food items, how long do they stay good for before having to use. I do a lot with helping families around Christmas time and wondered if I made a bunch up for Christmas this year, how early I could make them up and them stay fresh. Love the ideas you have on here. Glad I found your site. Thanks
