Magic Wands
So easy! Turned out wonderful and there were none left from the Halloween party! I used Chocolate Fudge, Cream Cheese and Strawberry frostings with a huge assortment of decorations! The chocolate frosting covered pretzel rods are divine!

Dijon Crusted Halibut
This dish was delish! My 13 month old and I LOVED it! My changes: I omitted the horseradish (because I didn't have any) and the butter. I accidentally added all the grated parm cheese to the creamy mixture (and ran out!) so the crispy topping was only bread crumbs - panko bread crumbs which I used in the creamy mixture too! I omitted the butter. I spread the creamy mixture over the fish. Then I pressed the dry panko over the spread and sprayed generously with olive oil PAM. I baked at 350 for 25 minutes (I used Halibut steaks, not fillets that's why the longer cooking time), then I crisped in the broiler for a couple of minutes. You must crispy in the broiler. Just baking cooks the fish but does not allow your crumbs to brown or get crispy. Your dish will look albino and undercooked if you do not broil. Oh! so delicious, though! EXCELLENT!

Warm Blue Cheese Dip with Garlic and Bacon
I took this dip to an outdoor beer / wing party my neighbor recently had. It was just wonderful! People who don't like blue cheese gobbled this up, some not even realizing the cheese was a main ingredient! My changes: I took the advice of other reviewers and used the low sodium bacon. With this, I did not find the dip to be too salty. I used probably about 7 cloves of garlic. (I just kept peeling!) I also used 5 oz. of blue cheese. I made the dip the night before and took out 1 hour before baking. I then filled a hollowed French bread round with the dip, covered it with aluminum foil and baked on a cookie sheet at 350 until internal temp registered 165. I served this with fresh torn French bread pieces for sopping up all the delicious dip! What a hit!
