A pack of cards

You had me at Macaroni

How about some macaroni cheese balls? These are crunchy and really good. Shape your leftover cold macaroni and cheese into 2-inch sized balls and place on a parchment-lined sheet tray. Grab a bag of your favorite potato chips. Place the potato chips in a gallon-sized zip-top bag. Using a rolling pin, gently roll over the bag to finely crush the chips. Pour the crushed chips into a shallow dish. Place 1 cup of flour in another shallow dish. Whisk two eggs in a small bowl. Roll each macaroni and cheese ball in the flour, then dip in the eggs, letting any excess egg drip off. Roll each ball in the crushed potato chips, firmly pressing the chips into the ball to create a solid coating. Return the balls to the baking sheet. Repeat to coat all of the balls. Fill a Dutch oven or large pot with oil to a depth of 2 inches. Heat the oil until a thermometer registers 350°F. Fry 6 balls at a time for 4 to 5 minutes or until golden brown and hot in the center. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm. Tip: If you are a dip lover, try these with ranch dressing. Mmm i'm gonna have to go make a batch because my mouth is now watering lol

Looking for those awesome party snacks

It's so easy to make and it's totally delish. I've also made it with fresh spinach and it's come out really good. I make it just for my daughter and myself and can make a spinach dip sandwich. Almost like having Avocado Toast..

I always go for the spinach dip...this one sounds really good.

I am going to make this. I always buy spinach dip at the store. It's one of my favorites.

3 packages of frozen spinach defrosted and strained of liquids
2 packages of Knoor Vegetable soup mix
1 cup of Mayonnaise
1 cup of sour cream or plain yogurt
1 can Chestnuts diced
1 bunch of green onions chopped (Scallions)
1 large round sourdough bread cut out the inside part and cut into pieces

Method:
Mix mayonnaise, sour cream (or yogurt), and Knoor Vegetable soup mix till well blended and set aside.
Chop/dice Chestnuts, green onions and combine mayo/sour cream mixture with the chestnuts and green onions together and spinach together and place in fridge to "marinate".

Preparation of serving cut the bread and place the bread on large serving dish. Place the spinach mixture into the well of the bread, using it as a bowl. then place the cut up bread around the outer part of the serving dish and serve.

Enjoy..

Hubby's Sausage Dip

Ingredients

1 roll Jimmy Dean Sausage { he gets regular } can get other flavors
2 Philly Cream Cheese { Block }
1 mild can Rotel


Directions
Brown and chunk up the sausage in frying pan
Add cream cheese and Rotel add a little milk so it's creamy
put in crock pot to keep warm
serve with Tostitos Scoops

That's easy to do ... slice or semi slice the date and stuff the combo of cream cheese and either shredded chedder, or any cheese you want and then wrap the bacon around it et al..

I've always wanted to try and figure out how to add cream cheese to it. One of these days 😁

It does sound interesting, have not had those before, will definitely give them a try....Thanks for entering,.:

I like to bring bacon wrapped dates. They are so easy. Cut a bacon slice in half and wrap around a medjool date. Top with a jalapeño slice and hold together with a toothpick. Bake in a 375 degree oven for ten minutes and serve. They go quick.

Share you favorite go to Party recipe, the one everyone loves to see you bring!!!

Shamrock Shake Pie
Ingredients:
12 graham crackers
2 tablespoons brown sugar
½ cup butter, melted
2½ cups milk, cold
¼ teaspoon green food coloring
2 teaspoons mint extract
5.1 ounces box of instant vanilla pudding mix
8 ounces container of whipped topping, thawed

Directions:
Grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or shortening and set it aside.
Place the graham crackers and brown sugar in a food processor and blend until the graham crackers become fine crumbs. While the food processor runs at low speed, gradually pour in the melted butter until the crumbs start to stick together.
Firmly press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of the pie dish, and place it in the freezer for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is firm.
While the crust is freezing, whisk the milk, green food coloring, and mint extract in a large bowl until the food coloring is distributed evenly and the milk is green.
Add the vanilla pudding mix, and continue whisking until the pudding starts to thicken. Let the pudding rest for about 5 minutes to thicken up more.
Fold the whipped topping into the pudding until it is well mixed, then spoon the pie filling into the crust, and smooth out the top of the pie.
Place the pie in the freezer for at least 6 hours or until the filling is completely set.
Top with whipped cream and maraschino cherries, if desired, and serve cold.

Use either two 3 oz. boxes, or one of the 6 oz boxes of jello.

Can't wait to try but was wondering what size Jello, the 3- or 6-ounces box?

I have you entered, thanks .....

I vote for #1 - Lemon Bundt Cake.

My mother made this inexpensive dessert when we
were growing up and struggling to make ends meet.
She called it the "Poor Man's Parfait".

Ingredients:
2 - boxes of Raspberry Jello
1 - 16 oz. can of crushed pineapple (drained)
1 - 16 oz. carton of heavy whipping cream

Prepare jello as directed and allow to set.
When jello has set, stir jello well with large spoon.
Add the drained crushed pineapple.
In a separate bowl beat the heavy whipping cream.
When fully whipped, combine whipped cream, jello
and crushed pineapple mixture in a large bowl.
Mix well and chill before serving in sundae glasses.

This looks messy but tastes divine!
The REAL whipped cream is why this tastes SO GOOD!

Here they are,,,

1.Bundt Lemon Cake

3 cups sifted unbleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter
2 cups sugar
4 large eggs
1 cup milk
Finely grated zest of 2 large lemons

Glaze

1/3 cup lemon juice
2/3 cup sugar

Adjust an oven rack one-third up from the bottom of oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a plain or fancy tube pan with an 11- to 12-cup capacity and dust it lightly with fine, dry bread crumbs.

Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt and set aside. In large bowl of electric mixer, beat the butter to soften it a bit. Add the sugar and beat for 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs individually, scraping the bowl as necessary with a rubber spatula to keep mixture smooth. On lowest speed, alternately add the dry ingredients in three additions and the milk in two additions, scraping the bowl with the rubber spatula as necessary and beating only until incorporated after each addition. Remove the bowl from the mixer. Stir in lemon zest. Turn the batter into prepared pan. Level top by rotating pan briskly back and forth.

Bake for 1 hour and 5 to 10 minutes, until a cake tester comes out dry.

Let cake stand in the pan for about 5 minutes and then cover with a rack and invert. Place over a large piece of aluminum foil or wax paper.

The glaze should be used immediately after it is mixed: Stir the lemon juice and sugar together and brush all over the hot cake until absorbed.


Let cake cool completely. Use two wide metal pancake turners or a cookie sheet to transfer it to a cake plate. Do not cut for at least several hours.

Best to make on New Years Eve.

We always have sauerkraut and pork and mashed potatoes. You have to eat sauerkraut for good luck in the new year. I still love it. 😋

Will that is different but so cool that it was a tradition that you had...Cant say that I have had any pickled herring..

Hubby and I would always snack on Ritz crackers and Pickled herring him with the sour cream and me just the pickled ones.

Trying to think back - hard to do - I’m old lol
But all I remember is that pot of black eyed peas and cornbread

We would stay up till midnight and eat snacks and perform skits as a family. But our snacks were always the quick and easy kind.

Gilbertei - Easiest Apple Pie

Preheat oven to 350°.

Peel and slice enough apples to fill a pie plate 2/3 full. Sprinkle the apples in the pie plate with cinnamon to taste.

In a separate microwave safe bowl, melt 1 ½ sticks butter and cool, so you don’t cook the egg.
Add in 1 egg
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
½ cup of chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts) but this is optional

Mix then spoon and spread this mixture over the apples and bake for 30 minutes** or until a knife comes out cleanly and the apples are soft. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Refrigerate leftovers.

My oven runs cooler, so it took almost 45 minutes for our “pie” to be done. My sister’s took 60 minutes.

Any kind of apples has worked for me. Kind of nice to use a few leftover apples. You don’t grease the pan, you don’t add leavening, etc. I know that this seems like an odd recipe and if you are a traditional apple pie person, it won’t fit the bill, but it is a quick and easy version of apple pie and we really like it. I can’t remember the name of the person on Facebook that demonstrated it, but she has been making it for 20 years.

Santa says be sure to post your recipe for this months contest..It can be anything you want and you will also get a Christmas Token for your post.....

Unfortunately that is what I usually end up doing

Thanks so much!

What a way to warm up and make the house smell good...apple pie in the oven...

I have entered your pie in the contest and will have a Christmas Token added to your profile...thanks

ok thanks!

First time I made it, it was 2, but they were huge. 2nd time it was 4 apples. You just fill the pie plate up 2/3 full. No matter how many apples it takes.

Sounds good! About how many apples do you use?

Go to nearest grocery store and pick up these ingredients:

Your favorite pie
Whipping cream in a can

Directions: shake can vigorously, then spread whipping cream over top of pie and serve. It's the easiest Christmas pie you'll ever serve. 😂

Preheat oven to 350°.

Peel and slice enough apples to fill a pie plate 2/3 full. Sprinkle the apples in the pie plate with cinnamon to taste.

In a separate microwave safe bowl, melt 1 ½ sticks butter and cool, so you don’t cook the egg.
Add in 1 egg
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
½ cup of chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts) but this is optional

Mix then spoon and spread this mixture over the apples and bake for 30 minutes** or until a knife comes out cleanly and the apples are soft. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Refrigerate leftovers.

• My oven runs cooler, so it took almost 45 minutes for our “pie” to be done. My sister’s took 60 minutes.

Any kind of apples has worked for me. Kind of nice to use a few leftover apples. You don’t grease the pan, you don’t add leavening, etc. I know that this seems like an odd recipe and if you are a traditional apple pie person, it won’t fit the bill, but it is a quick and easy version of apple pie and we really like it. I can’t remember the name of the person on Facebook that demonstrated it, but she has been making it for 20 years.

Thanks

Your recipe will be entered into the contest and I will also have a Christmas Token like this put on your profile (unknown photo)

my wife has been saying the same for over 20 years, it's a family joke

LOL....love to try one!

My pies are legendary, i.e. they are much talked about, but may or may not actually exist

Its a magical Christmas, use your imagination to find something that will get Grandma excited. It can be baked, fried, steamed, sliced an diced, candy coated, what ever your heart desires...

Good catch PattyMac! Cutting Board Rules say, "Recipes that have previously been posted to the Cutting Board are not eligible for future contests". Though that should be clarified to be "Recipes that YOU have previously posted to the Cutting Board are not eligible for future contests."

Do you have a recipe for that? hmmm I thought we just had cheesecake, maybe something else?

No bake cheesecake

Grandma said don't bring that same pie this year you always bring, lets see something different...what are you bringing??

Poll Closed. Thanks to all who voted

Results will be posted Monday

Using the poll at the top of this board, please vote for the best cream cheese recipe

Thanks to those who posted an entry for this contest. Good luck!

This voting poll will close at the end of the day on Sunday, 3 December

For the cranberry jello

2 (3-oz.) packages raspberry Jell-O
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 (20-oz.) can crushed pineapple in 100% juice*
1 (14-oz.) can whole berry cranberry sauce
3/4 cup cranberry juice
1 cup toasted walnuts or pecans, chopped & divided (I use pecans)


For the cream cheese topping

1 (8-oz.) package cream cheese, softened*
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup granulated sugar


Dissolve the raspberry Jell-O in the boiling water.
Remove from heat and add the crushed pineapple (juice and all), whole berry cranberry sauce, cranberry juice, and your choice of nuts to the Jell-O mixture. Reserve a small amount of the nuts to sprinkle on top. Mix well.
Pour into a 9x13" glass baking dish and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.

For a lump-free cream cheese topping, first cream together the cream cheese and sugar with a hand mixer until light and fluffy. Then add the sour cream and whip until smooth.
When the cranberry jello mixture is firm, spread the cream cheese topping over the top. Garnish with additional chopped toasted walnuts or pecans. Refrigerate for about an hour to allow the topping to firm up.

Groceries for ONE is always a challenge for me. I end up throwing away a lot of food because it gets old before I have a chance to use it. That is especially true of a loaf of bread. So, this cream cheese recipe allows me to use the remaining bread before it goes bad. And it’s sweet! Win-win!

Ingredients:

• 6-8 White bread slices w/crust cut off
• 8 oz block of cream cheese, softened
• ¾ cup confectioner’s sugar
• 1 tsp milk
• ½ stick of butter, melted
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon

Directions:

1. Beat together softened cream cheese and confectioner’s sugar. (Add a little milk for spreading consistency)

2. Mix granulated sugar in a small bowl with cinnamon

3. One slice at a time, spread cream cheese mixture onto bread slice (somewhat thick)

4. Dip rolled bread slice into butter, then roll in cinnamon sugar mix

5. Place onto cookie sheet

6. Do this for each individual bread slice

7. Bake at 350° F for about 15-20 minutes

Notes:

• Quantities should be adapted to the amount of bread slices you wish to use. May need to play around with portions. If it’s just for one person, you may wish to halve the recipe

Grandkids love this (eating AND making), so invite them over when you’re ready to turn your bread into a sweet treat!
