		<description>My husband asks for these for any family holiday like Thanksgiving, Christmas or Easter.  Great with turkey ham beef or pork.

Horseradish carrots
peel and slice 5-6 carrots and boil until not quite tender.  Reserve 1 tablespoon of boiling water.
Blend together 1 tablespoon of prepared horseradish, 1 finely chopped onion, 1/4 cup mayonaise and the carrot water.  Place carrots in a casserole dish and pour mixture over top.  Sprinkle with bread crumbs and bake at 350 until hot and bubbly and bread crumbs are browned.  ( about 20-30 min).&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>My mom made a new one last year that has become a family favorite... 

Dirty Snowballs (sound odd, I know)
They're basically oreo cookies crushed and mixed with cream cheese, rolled into balls and dipped into melted white chocolate.  

Yum!!!&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I bake a ton of cookies and  make a ton of candy.  Some of the favorites at work and home are white chocolate covered pretzels and you can decorate them up anyway you want.  My homemade fudge. Also,  don't really have a name for it but you melt some carmel along with some sweetened condensed milk and roll a big marshmallow in it and then roll that in Rice Krispies.

I make way too many cookies to mention but you can find all kinds of great recipes on line.  

Go to allrecipes.com 
they have some great recipes.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
