It is only at this time of year that I bring out my secret recipe:

Chocolate Chip Cheese Bar:

2 rolls of (Pillsbury) chocolate chip cookie dough -            +/- 32 ozs. total weight
2 8oz. packages of cream cheese
2 eggs
1/2 cup of sugar
1/2 cup of chopped nuts
1 tsp. vanilla

Cream together cheese, sugar, eggs.
Add vanilla and put mixture to the side.
Slice one roll of cookies thin.
Line the bottom of 9x13 un-greased pan with the sliced cookie dough
Pour cheese mixture over cookies.
Slice the remainder of the cookie dough and place on top of the cheese mixture.
Sprinkle with nuts.
Bake at 350* for 45 minutes.
Cool and cut into squares.

***the rolls of cookies dough soften very quickly so I usually freeze them first which makes them easier to cut into slices
***beat the cream cheese mixture until creamy
*** If they are too gooey try refrigerating them after they have cooled.

I didn't go out this year; I have a wicked cold and don't feel well, so.... I did have wonton soup with another US citizen.

But I was very grateful for the wonton soup!

Hope y'all had a great time!


A wonton hussy having wonton soup? Sounds almost cannibalistic. LOL
But I sympathize on the wicked cold. We went to my sister's with our bad colds. I would have preferred to stay home but didn't want the kids driving home in the sleet. And they really want to see their cousins.

I brought twice baked potatoes and assorted cookies. Brought a small bag of cookies back which my son promptly confiscated and consumed later that night. The eating capacity of a 17 year old boy never fails to amaze me.

That would be homophonic cannibalism! :P

Last year I did turkey, gravy, potatoes, and bread.

This year the host's new dom got in his head he was going to deep-fry the turkey. Which turned out okay...edible...but not as good as mine, and of course there was no lovely gravy.

I roast my turkeys in a deep covered pan with lemon and fresh herbs in the cavity and a full bottle of apple wine in the pan. Low and slow for hours, sealed up. It does not produce a golden bird, if that's your goal. However, it produces a subtly flavored delicious bird that is tender and juicy without tons of marinading, so it is ideal if you plan to slice it up before dinner. And, of course, the pan juices make a gravy to die for.

I will add that world-beating mashed potatoes may be achieved by boiling your potatoes in a rich chicken stock, then mashing with heavy cream and real butter.

Alexandra - we do essentially the same thing with our roasted birds, except I use an apricot or blackberry puree and either homemade vegetable or poultry demi-glace for the simmer sauce/glaze. You almost have to when you're buying "pastured" turkeys like we do, since if you don't cook the bird VERY slowly and with comparatively low heat (225-250 degrees, tops, for 6-8 hrs), it will be exceptionally dry. However, my companion loves the crispy skin, so at slicing time, I peel the bird, brush the skin with warmed coconut oil, powdered dried thyme, rosemary, sage, and a little sea salt, and pop it under a low broiler for about 5 minutes -- It's GLORIOUS... crispy, perfectly seasoned, slightly sweet from the simmering steam during the roasting... I'm not a big fan of poultry, and even less of a fan of poultry skin, but even I had to admit that this was actually pretty tasty.

Funny you should mention it because the group dinner that we went to last night had deep fried turkey and I thought it was fantastic.  My other half liked it so much that I was worried that he was looking at that deep fryer in that "we should get one of those" kind of ways.  Yeah...... ummmm...... no.  I'd be one of those folks who would manage to start a fire.  LOL.

This was kind of a pot luck deal where everyone contributed an item.  I have to write a gal this morning who brought a rice dish that I enjoyed so much that I have to have the recipe.




Dnomyar -> RE: Who's Cooking? (11/28/2010 6:15:43 PM)

I love cooking and my son is a chef so we had a ton of food leftover for thanksgiving. One of these days I will stick to my diet. My granddaughter thinks that turkey is ham and loves it. She has gone back home and the house is so quiet.




TermsConditions -> RE: Who's Cooking? (11/28/2010 6:48:35 PM)


I *love* cooking. If the table does not include fresh cramberry relish, giblet gravy and oyster dressing the holiday just does not seem right. Alas, we traveled this year and i did not get to cook : (

But i did clean up the kitchen and do the dishes and pans while the ladies were out shopping. [:D]

And i did find some vacuming and a little dusting that needed doing. And some cobwebs. Don't want to be a rude guest though so one must not clean *too* much. lol




mwdsub4u -> RE: Who's Cooking? (11/28/2010 6:55:41 PM)

hi Lady pact, I always cook during the Holidays and on weekends, Turkey in the bag, upside down, with all the trimings, the older i get the more i enjoy it.
And i would love to be the houseboi-wife,, in a Mistress, Female Supremacy house hold




Scala -> RE: Who's Cooking? (12/9/2010 5:57:10 AM)

cooking is a hard limit for me [:'(] ... any attempts to push this limit is met with an immediate safe word 




Dnomyar -> RE: Who's Cooking? (12/9/2010 11:48:50 AM)

Cooking a Dearborn brand ham in vernors ginger ale. Best way ever to cook it. OK explain this to me. I can go to the place where they make the Dearborn hams and pay $3 a pound but in the grecery stores it is over $6 a pound.




LadyHibiscus -> RE: Who's Cooking? (12/9/2010 4:56:03 PM)

The neighbor got a half ham and shared it out--well, his wife got it from one of hr jobs. Dearborn is my fave, so much better than honeybaked.




YSG -> RE: Who's Cooking? (12/9/2010 6:58:45 PM)

Ok, so I am not cooking for christmas this year, however, seeing as I work in a grocery store and have an employee discount, I am the one doing the grocery shopping. We literally have the entire clan coming this year, we're talking roughly 60 people, spanning 4 generations from all over the country under one roof.

the shopping list includes, but is not limited to:
3 25lb turkeys
5 full size hams
2 dozen sweet potatoes
3 bags of white potatoes
10 large boxes of chocolate pudding
2 dozen bags of frozen corn
15 pounds of apples
and about a million other things that it would take me all night to write out, and will be filling several shopping carts




LadyHibiscus -> RE: Who's Cooking? (12/9/2010 7:53:43 PM)

Criminy! How are you going to cook all that? I couldn't deal, and we have two kitchens!

Rayray!! We are having Sanders hot fudge cream puffs for dessert on xmas!




Dnomyar -> RE: Who's Cooking? (12/9/2010 8:33:28 PM)

LH The best price on sanders is at ACO hardware stores. They sell it for half of what the other stores do. Talk about teasing someone. I will be in wisconsin for a couple of weeks during christmas. Mmm How about we meet over a sadners hot fudge sundae cream puff after the holidays. I have finals and presentations the next few days so nat able to right now.

all the local familes are chipping in on cooking (4, to be exact).




LadyHibiscus -> RE: Who's Cooking? (12/9/2010 9:06:46 PM)

You're on, Rayray! There is even a little Sanders shop in Rochester. We always get the topping at the ACO.
