Fun Foods Around Thanksgiving

Last week, there was more to the celebration of Thanksgiving than just the Thanksgiving meal. On Wednesday night, the annual karaoke fun proceeded as per usual, and in addition to the pot of chili I made, there were also some other snackables and goodies.

Prosciutto Roll-Ups

Goat Cheese, Currants, Pine Nuts, Green Leaf Lettuce, Prosciutto
[Idea for these from Brendan Shanley]

Homemade Pimento Cheese

15-Minute Peanut Butter Fudge
Following the Thanksgiving weekend but before I hit the road for work this week, I also threw together a quick batch of Butter Toffee cookies. The recipe came from the King Arthur catalog but I cannot find it in this same form on their website now. That seems to happen with their recipes from time to time: what gets published and what's archived on their website do not always match up cleanly.

Butter Toffee Cookies



"South Carolina-Style Pimento Cheese." Recipe worked out by me, based on Sharon's Palmetto Pimento Cheese.

"15-Minute Peanut Butter Fudge," in the article "Simplifying Fudge" by David PazmiƱo. In Cook's Illustrated, January & February 2007, p. 22-23.
