Thursday, 12/24/20

 We decided to try at least a mini Christmas eve dinner, so everyone got to pick one thing: Carter went with shrimp cocktail, I picked cheese and crackers, and Jason made little pizza/taco cup things? It was pizza dough fitted into muffin tins, than filled (in this case) with beef, beans and cheese. Surprisingly tasty. For dessert Carter and I made white chocolate/pretzel haystacks. This was semi-disastrous, as I inadvertently heated up the white chocolate too fast, causing it too seize. I was able to fix it, but in doing so (shouldn't have added that heavy cream. It's counterintuitive that water is the answer, but there you have it) I changed the texture a bit, so they didn't firm up as much as they should have. Tasted fine, though! Maybe I'll try again on New Year's Eve.
