I know there is already a sticky up there, but I thought I would start a new thread.

Christmas is just around the corner, and my family and I do a LOT of family and friend get together's. Which usually leads to me and a cousin of mine having food wars. :D Always competing for the best dish. It ends with the person having the most left int heir dishes being ridiculed relentlessly. Sounds mean, but we thrive off it.

So I am looking for all your favorite recopies, desserts, soups, meals anything you want to share!

If you have a favorite authentic dish, I'd love to have a copy of the recipe! If I make any of your dishes I'll make sure to post pics and reviews!

Here is the recipe for a buffalo wing dip that I just love to eat. I could probably eat the whole thing if I wasn't careful. It is simple and quick to make too.

2 (10 oz) cans chunk chicken, drained.

2 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese, softened.

1 cup of ranch dressing.

3/4 cup of hot sauce.

1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese.


Heat chicken and hot sauce in a skillet over medium heat, until heated through. Stir in cream cheese and ranch dressing. Cook, stirring until well blended and warm. Mix in half of the shredded cheese, and transfer the mixture to a slow cooker. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top, cover, and cook on Low setting until hot and bubbly. Serve with celery sticks and crackers. I like to eat it with tortilla chips myself.

Irish Bread And Butter Pudding Recipe - Dessert.Food.com - 118948

Here's a recipe for bread and butter pudding,instead of a bain marie just bang it in the oven for 30 minutes or until there is a brown crust on top,for me,best served with custard.

My sister in law named these wings for me because of how I flavor them and the next day. If you get my drift. She likes to call them "Flaming a$$holes"

-4 or 5lb bag of frozen wings
-a bottle of hot wing sauce, I prefer Franks Redhot but not sure if they sell that in Canada
-1 stick of butter
-one cup of sugar
-molasses
-tobasco sauce

Here is what I do. I created this myself so the tobasco and molasses are really just whatever you want to use according to your taste.

Use a large cake pan or whatever you can bake that many wings in with out it spilling over. I bake mine at about 300-350.

First take the stick of butter and melt it down. When its melted mix in the sugar. Then pour the entire bottle of wing sauce in. At this point I pour in molasses. I like it a dark brown color, like a chocolate color. Pour in the tobasco sauce. I have used any where from 1/4 of the bottle to the entire bottle. Depends on how much of a kick you want it to have. I start with a small amount and taste it as I go. Depending on who I am making it for.

After you put the frozen wings in the pan pour all of the topping on the wings. Toss it in the oven. I like to bake them frozen because in my opinion as they thaw and cook they soak in the sauce. Continue to take them out and stir the sauce over the top. I leave them in the oven until I see some of the meat literally falling off the bones. Couldn take any where from an hour or two to finish them depending on your oven setting.

These don't have a traditional wing flavor. They have a sweet spice to them. They are a hit in my family. I hope they work for you if you try them.

Great stuff guys! Thanks!

Okay, the pumpkin pie recipe I mentioned. It is so rich that serving pieces can be small.

Rich Pumpkin Pie

Pastry for 9” one-crust pie
2 cups cooked puréed pumpkin
1 cup brown sugar
6 eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups cream
½ tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp ground cloves
½ tsp mace
1/3 cup cognac
4 tablespoons finely chopped candied ginger (optional)

Line 9” pie with pastry and place foil on top. Pre-bake pie shell at 400 F for 10 minutes. (This is what the recipe calls for, but I didn't pre-bake mine and it came out great.)

Combine pumpkin with sugar, eggs cream, seasonings and cognac and blend well. Sprinkle with chopped candied ginger, if desired, and bake in a 375 F oven for 30-35 minutes, or until pumpkin is set. Serve slightly warm with whipped cream.

Serves 8.

Pumpkin pie is my all time favorite. Just throwing this in here.

That's right. I remember you saying this before. This recipe is so good. I was surprised by how many eggs it took, but it is so rich that you don't need a very big piece to enjoy it. I made the recipe last year also. I didn't have any cognac so I used brandy, and it was just as good.

This is wonderful, maybe everyone already has the recipe, but just in case. It is so easy and the first time I made it, it was demanded every holiday.

1 cup sour cream
1 7 ounce 'jiffy corn muffin mix'
2 eggs
2 Tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup melted butter
1 can creamed corn (the cheaper the better)

mix everything EXCEPT the butter.

Pour the melted butter in an 8 x 8 pan, pour the mixed ingredients over the butter. Bake 40-45 minutes until it cracks and is golden brown.

This small amount can feed a Kingdom. It is very rich.:)

Awesome thanks guys! I am going to do the pumpkin pie and JD's desert first for this Saturday. And I think I am going to try Adam's dip too!

The wing sauce will be made this coming Wednesday for wing night! You guys rock!
