We have been nominated to host Christmas Lunch at our house this year for James' Dads side of the family. With spare time on my hands now that James is away I've been surfing the net for recipies. I think we're going to supply the ham (which can be cooked in the slow cooker), the mashed potatoes (which I can make masses of the day prior), cookies and treats (which will come from cookie exchange), and some alcohol. Hopefully the rest of the family will bring the other bits and pieces. Fingers crossed for nice weather so we can set up a slip n' slide to entertain the kids.
While recipie searching I came across something that I made last night for a baby shower today and also for a friend in hospital who has just had twins. It was rated 5 stars online, so I just had to try it. The hype was correct. The whole plate was finished at the shower and I had 3 people ask me for the recipie. I was almost embarresed to tell them how it was made. Maybe I should have let them all think I was some kind of gourmet chef or something....anyways, my friends I'll share the secret with you. SOOO easy.
A double package of regular oreos
A block of philly creame cheese (I used full fat version, but I'm sure you could go low fat)
melting chocolate (milk or white)
Blend in food processor. Then put in fridge for a bit. Take out and roll into 1 inch balls and put on wax paper. Put in fridge a bit longer. Melt chocolate. Roll and gently spoon chocolate onto balls. Let them dry on wax paper and then put back in fridge to set. For gourmet look stripe white chocolate onto the chocolate covering.
