  15. Louise Fucaloro says:

    These recipes look delicious. I have printed them in the hopes of trying each one. My family loves desserts and I work as a nurse in a psychiatric hospital. I often bake for my patients and they love the goodies. I am planning some good treats for them now that I've seen your recipes. I have recently eaten a cake (which is more like a flan) from Senor Taco Restaurant. It's a tres leches cake. It is phenomenal but I can't find a recipe with this texture. As I mentioned, it is more like a custard or flan texture and they top it with raspberry sauce. It is to die for! Have any of you every come across a recipe that will render a cake like this? Thanks in advance for your help and thank you again for all the bar cookie recipes. My passion is in the kitchen!Louise

  16. Dori Strock says:

    Which recipes are freezer friendly.

  17. Cyd says:

    All of the recipes are not ours. When we do a list post we like to highlight other bloggers. But the recipes that are from the Six Sisters are all freezer friendly if put in an airtight container.

  18. Beth Miller says:

    Is the drool part of the signup? Great recipes. I am one of 5 sisters and we all do well with baking. Must be the influence of our Mother who loved to bake.

  19. Joanie says:

    How do we get the recipe? When I click on it, all I get is the picture, not the recipe

  20. Cyd says:

    Click on the recipe title under the picture and it will link you up!
