DIRT PUDDING (Family Favorite) Decadent!!
1 (14 ounce) bag Oreo cookies
2 (3 1/2 ounce) packages French vanilla instant pudding
3 cups milk
1 cup powdered sugar
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1/4 cup butter or margarine (1/4 cup)
1 (12 ounce) container Cool Whip
Break up cookies, put 1/2 on bottom of preferred dish and save other 1/2 for topping.
Mix pudding and milk together, set aside.
Mix sugar, cream cheese and butter.
Add sugar mixture to pudding; fold in cool whip.
Pour onto cookies, top with remaining cokies.
I like to let it cool for atleast a half hour if I have time.
Let's it all meld together and it tastes better cool.

Honey, be patient. We in the south are a S-L-O-W people. Your thread is about food, that is what we do here. People will come. If you mention it, they will come. (Patience)

Nonsense. Thanksgiving is not religious at all. Which makes it one of the sanest holidays we celebrate, as well as my personal favorite. All of us are dang lucky to have been born in this part of the planet at this time. We have a lot to be thankful for.

Suggestions for Smokin' a Turkey, whole bone in. I'm thinking of doing this because so many people Fry the turkey now. Time to be a trend setter again.

But you must smoke the turkey in that 70's mechanic's Dickie jumpsuit. That would be too rich.

Biggest problem we have is in the immediate family there's only about 30 folks. Get cousins home, we're talking 90+. And Mom's house is the only one that can handle them. So it's an automatic thing. Funny part is Aunt Millie coming in with her greenbean casserole in her 3x5 casserole dish, to feed all those folks...

Pumpkin Cheesecake
Oven: 325º (350º if making the walnut crust)
Pan: 10" springform
Serves: 12
Crusts
Quickie Graham Cracker Crust
Buy a pre-made graham cracker crust, crumble it in the bottom of the pan and spread evenly.
Walnut Crust
6 tablespoons butter, room temperature
3 tablespoons firmly packed light brown sugar
1 large egg yolk
¾ cup unbleached all-purpose flour
¼ cup finely ground walnuts (about 1/3 cup walnut halves, pulsed in the food processor until ground but not pasty)
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350ºF.Lightly butter the bottom of a 9 1/2 –inch or 10-inch spring form pan. Beat butter and sugar in a bowl until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolk and blend. Add flour, walnuts, and cinnamon and mix until just combined. Do not over-mix.
Lightly flour your finger tips and press the mixture onto the bottom of the cheesecake pan. Place in the oven and bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown; set aside to cool for at least 10 minutes.
Turn the oven down to 325º
Filling
Separate 4 eggs and put the whites into a large bowl. Allow them to come to room temperature, and then beat them until stiff.
Combine
4 yolks
¾ cups sugar
1 cup light cream (half and half)
2 8-oz. packages cream cheese (room temperature)
1 cup canned pumpkin
3 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
(1/8 to ¼ teaspoon ground cloves is nice too
I put all the ingredients into my blender and run the blender until the ingredients are smooth. Fold the ingredients into the egg whites and pour into pan.
If you use a mixer, soften the cream cheese and beat until smooth, beat in the sugar; add the yolks, beat. Blend in the rest of the ingredients.
Bake at 325º for 1 hour.
Topping
1 pint sour cream
¼ cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Combine and spread over hot cheesecake and bake 5 minutes more at 325º. Chill
Ingredients List for Shopping
2 8oz. packages cream cheese
1 pint sour cream
1 cup pumpkin
1 cup half and half
4 eggs
walnuts and brown sugar if making walnut crust
Pre-made graham cracker crust if using that crust
sugar
cinnamon
salt
flour
vanilla
nutmeg (or mace)
cloves (optional)
I made this recipe a lot … it's great for any holiday but always on Thanksgiving.
I did it once for St. Patrick's Day. I colored the sour cream mixture with just a very tiny bit of green food coloring and used Lime Jell-O to make shamrock cutouts. Use ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons water for 1 3oz. package Jell-O. Put the water in a small sauce pan, bring it to a boil, pour in the Jell-o and stir until dissolved. I poured it into a square baking pan. I'm thinking I oiled the pan first. Probably non stick cooking spray would work, too. Spray well, and then wipe it around with a paper towel. Chill until firm. A shamrock cookie cutter works. Gently remove the cutouts and place on top of chilled cheesecake.
