Have you ever tried out a new recipe and followed the instructions exactly, only to have it flop? This has happened to me before and it’s extremely frustrating! Not only have you wasted the time, but also money.

Recipes can fail for two reasons you may not have taken into account:

1.  The temperature of the food

2.  The temperature of the oven

Obviously, room-temp food cooks quicker than anything taken directly from the fridge. Cooking times are approximate (as I mention when posting my own recipes to this site).

As for the oven, many of them are off by a huge margin. You can pick up a cheap oven thermometer to check for any discrepancies.

Happy Cooking, Ladies!

Have you had a recipe fail lately? If so, do you know why?
