This week some friends and I threw an Around the Clock bridal shower for a precious friend and great babysitter of ours. It started with gifts for "Breakfast Time" all the way to "Flirty Time". We had so much fun! I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Some of the ladies have requested a couple of the recipes. So here you go . . .
Pecan Brie Pastry
1 round of Brie
1 ready made, refrigerated pie crust, thawed
1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c chopped pecans
1 - 2 TBSP cinnamon
Unroll pie crust. Place brie in center. Mix last 3 ingredients together and sprinkle over the brie. Pull edges of crust up over the sides of the brie. It will not completely cover it. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 min. or until crust is golden brown. Serve with crackers.
Firecracker Fruit Slush (Great for 4th of July & in the fall)
3 cups water
1 1/2 c sugar
1 (16oz) can jellied cranberry sauce
1 (12oz) can frozen cranberry concentrate, thawed
1 (12oz) can frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
1 tsp allspice
1 tsp cinnamon
2 (1-liter) bottles club soda
Mix everything together and pour into 2 large freezer bags. Freeze for 2 hours then squeeze bag to break up frozen parts. Freeze additional 8 hours or overnight. Just before serving squeeze bag more to mix slush and pour into a serving bowl. Serve with spoons.
