As a young woman freshly married, I've found trouble choosing that "signature dish" that all my family and friends hope I bring to the next gathering. You know the one... The one that only you can make taste so good, the one that whips up quick and easy but seems really difficult ;).. Your aunt has the famed potatoes, mom has the Thanksgiving Turkey, Cousin Enid has the molasses baked beans covered.. and if they don't show up with those things??! Cousin Jerry raises cane (pun intended) and the whole family is left disappointed.
I have tried cupcakes- too messy.....
cheese dip- not sustainable for the table.....
The boring cheese tray- this is always a hit, but below my skill level
Bringing the wine always works, but I wanted something that I could make all on my own.
Well folks, I finally found it! A Pecan Pie flavored with Sweet Dekota's Molasses and top-shelf Kentucky Bourbon that will rock your world! It was such a beautiful pie. It was gone far too quickly :`( My only regret is that I did not get a better picture of it. No worries, though! I plan to make another for our Christmas dinner and I will share the recipe and some photos then! Until then, I'd love to hear the stories of your signature dish! What do your friends and family always hope you bring? Do you change it up with the seasons or do you have a year round staple?
