I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Software and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.

My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.

I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!

Thank you!!

BETTY'S TIP: Check your chocolate-baking chocolate works best in this recipe. Melted chocolate chips will harden when dropped onto the batter, making it difficult to swirl.
