Superbowl of Food

I cannot believe how much food we had at the house for Superbowl.
Our Menu:
Smoked Brisket, Jalapeno Cheddar Sausage, Chicken Wings, Meaty Rotel Dip, Strawberry Pecan Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette, Stuffed Peppers, Baked Potato Salad, Chicken Bacon Ranch Buns, Mexican Cornbread, French Bread, Chocolate Cookie Towers, and Creamy Lemonade Pie.

What People Brought:
Goat Cheese with Blackberry Pepper Jelly, Cream Cheese with Crab Meat and Cocktail Sauce, Pizza Hut's Dunking Strips, Cheesy Bread Puffs, Ranch and Spinach Dip, Chips, and 2 Raspberry Pies,

Favorites?
Our friend Chelsea's Baked Potato Salad is so good. You bake the potatoes and cube them. Mix with sour cream, Ranch powder, real bacon bits and cheese. Sooo tasty.

The Chocolate Cookie Towers were definitely a hit. The dough was WEIRD - sticky and not very floury. But you chill it and roll it out. Although I was very skeptical about if they would turn out right or not they literally melted away in your mouth. So imagine 5 of those layered with a chocolate pastry cream (basically a highly decadent chocolate pudding) and homemade whipped cream. Yum Yum Yum

Last but not least was the Lemonade Pie. I've already made it again for my parents and sister (I'm writing from Little Rock right now). It's a vanilla wafer crust with a hint of mint. Fill with a whipped cream sweetened with sweetened condensed milk and a slight lemon flavor. Then swirl in the blueberry sauce and freeze. You should really try this recipe. It was pretty easy and very tasty. It will be perfecto on a hot summer day.
