Seventh Dish of Christmas - Creamed Mushrooms

The picture of these Smitten Kitchen creamed mushrooms was too good to not try the recipe! I made the brioche (see previous post), topped with chive butter and brought the creamed mushrooms to the annual Christmas Cocktail party. I think it turned out pretty good!



Good job on the party girls!

Sixth Dish of Christmas - Brioche

I made this basic brioche from Epicurious this weekend. Bread usually isn't as hard as it seems but this recipe was overly complicated. If you are looking for a bread recipe, I've got better ones stashed around here. Aside from lengthy directions, the bread turned out really yummy. I served it with the seventh dish and with the eighth dish. Check those out!



This bread is also good when used in french toast or with strawberry jam (eating that right now for breakfast!)

Fifth Dish of Christmas - Cheesecake Marbled Brownies

I made cheesecake marbled brownies for some of my faves for Christmas! I don't eat chocolate but, I have to admit, the kitchen smelled really good while these were in the oven! Mike was dying to sneak a bite!









Merry Christmas girls!
