  1. This tasted very good. I used home-made cottage cheese as it called for cream-style cottage cheese. For nuts, I used chopped pecans. The nuts gave it a nice texture and were a good flavor combination with the raisins. I really liked that I didn't have to bother with a crust. This was more like a soufflé. DH really liked it too. The only disappointment I had was that it got too dark on the outside before it finished cooking in the center and took 40 minutes rather than 30 minutes before it was done in the center. I would have blamed this on my oven, but it's a brand new stove and I just had the oven temperature calibrated about 2 or 3 weeks ago, so I know it is accurate. Regardless of the darkness on the outside, I will make this again and experiment with different temperatures, possibly a lower rack and different pan sizes. If it weren't the type of food product that is subject to falling, I'd cover the edge in foil before it got too dark. The recipe doesn't specify what size baking dish to use, so I used a 9-inch deep dish glass pie pan. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

Hey Everyone! Greetings from Sunny Singapore! I'm am so glad to have found this site. It is waaaayyy better than other sites I've been. I have about 240 cookbooks and my faves are the older cookbooks I got from my mom as I prefer from scratch cooking. I have created several cookbooks dedicated to the use of eggs. I have come across a number of recipes requests for using up lots of eggs. So there they are. http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/123897/Backtattoos.jpg The above is a picture of me at my office's Annual Christmas cum costume party. I won first prize with that orange costume! The one with the (fake) Tattoos was taken in Dec 2007 when I again won first prize. I love spicy food and the many different kinds of chilli dips different foods calls for!! Love baking, cross stitching, trying my hand now in shoe beading and patchwork and now doing a course on aromatherapy. Oh and am now trying to raise a flower and herb garden but it is not easy as I am a newbie at that too! In some of my recipes, you will note that there is a letter in brackets at the beginning of the name. This is what it means : (A) : Aromatherapy/Homeopathic/Less toxic I'm not crazy about recipes using pre-mix cakes as I am a more from-scratch person. My recipes will have the local name (when applicable) as well as the anglicised name, eg "Au Nee (Sweet Yam Paste). If I had a month off, I'd be in Texas.
