I had my fair share of champagne:

Salad, veggies, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, roll with butter and prime rib with horseradish. Delish!  I did go back for some more prime rib.

There’s a possibility that I went a little overboard with dessert.

What is that you ask? A pile of pound cake dipped in chocolate fondue, pecan pie and bread pudding all covered in whipped cream. I love dessert….can’t you tell?

You can find the recipe here. They are little bites of eggnog goodness. Trust me. I did make two changes: upped the eggnog to 3/4 cup and used half brown sugar and half white sugar.

  1. I don't know if I have a favorite cookbook. Most of my favorite recipes have come from blogs, Cooking Light, Food and Wine, and friends.
