make mini pigs in the blanket, but before you bake them poke a hole in the top of one of the weiners and put a small split down one side lol........
you can imagine what it looks like when baked lol............. HAVE FUN!
Check the link below out from Food TV. They have some great ideas. Also, you can't forget the "dick" cake!
get an assortment of cheeses and crackers. Slice the cheeses into bite size bits. Have your guest experiment to see which kinds they like best. bachelorette/bachelor parties are best when informal and finger food fits the bill for informality. Also makes clean up after a breeze
Grilled Banana Splits with Hot Fudge and Rum Caramel Sauce
6 firm-ripe bananas, halved lengthwise (unpeeled)
6 tablespoons honey
12 tablespoons light brown sugar
Vanilla ice cream, for serving
Hot Fudge Sauce, for serving, recipe follows
Rum Caramel Sauce, for serving, recipe follows
2 cups lightly sweetened whipped cream, for serving
Finely chopped roasted peanuts, for serving
6 maraschino cherries, for serving
Preheat a grill to high and lightly oil the grill grates.
Place the banana halves cut side up on a baking sheet and drizzle evenly with the honey. Sprinkle with the brown sugar and transfer to the grill, cut side up, arranging the bananas perpendicular to the grill grates. Close the grill cover and cook until bananas are caramelized around the edges and the fruit is beginning to pull away from the peel, 3 to 5 minutes depending on your grill. Carefully transfer the grilled banana halves (still in their skins) to a small baking sheet. Using 2 small forks or a long, thin spatula, carefully remove the banana from its skin and place 2 pieces of banana on each of 6 serving plates. (This is a little tricky since the bananas are now very soft.) Top each banana with 1 or 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream. Drizzle with Hot Fudge Sauce and Rum Caramel Sauce. Top with dollops of whipped cream and sprinkle with chopped peanuts. Top each serving with a maraschino cherry and serve immediately.
Hot Fudge Sauce:
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
3 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch salt
Combine the cocoa powder and sugar in the top of a double boiler over briskly simmering water and whisk to combine. Add the heavy cream and corn syrup and whisk until smooth. Cook, whisking constantly, until mixture is hot, thick and creamy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chocolate, butter, vanilla and salt and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate and butter are melted and the sauce is smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Keep warm until ready to serve. (The sauce may be prepared up to several weeks in advance and reheated gently in a double boiler before serving.)
Yield: about 2 cups
Rum Caramel Sauce:
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup hot water
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon heavy cream
2 tablespoons dark rum
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons cold unsalted butter
In a heavy saucepan combine the sugar and water and cook over high heat until the sugar is dissolved, about 1 minute. Continue to cook, swirling occasionally but never stirring the sugar mixture, until mixture thickens and turns a deep amber color, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the heavy cream; be careful, the mixture will splatter. Return the pan to the heat and reduce the heat to medium. Allow to cook until the sauce is thick and creamy, stirring occasionally to help incorporate the cream, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the rum, vanilla and butter. Serve warm. (If making the sauce in advance, rewarm the sauce before serving.)
Yield: about 1 1/2 cups
Shrimp and cucumber finger sandwiches:
1 cucumber, peeled and sliced
Sourdough bread, cut into squares (~2"x2")
1 cup of mayo
1 cream cheese brick
1 packet of Hidden Valley Ranch dip/dressing mix
Boiled small shrimp
Mix mayo, cream cheese and HVR dip. Spread on bread squares. Place cucumber on top of spread. Drop a little more spread on top of the cucumber and then place a shrimp on top. Makes about 20-25. This stuff has been a hit at every party I've served it.
Here's another good one: raspberry chipotle cream cheese spread and crackers.
1 cream cheese brick
1 bottle of Fischer & Wieser Roasted Raspberry Chipotle sauce
Crackers
Remove cream cheese from packaging and leave in it's original form; place on a plate. Drizzle sauce over cream cheese. Place crackers around the plate. Guests spread the cheese/sauce on the cracker. Another party hit!
Brushetta. take a loaf of italian bread and smooth the top with olive oil and garlic. next sprinkle motzerella cheese, oregano, salt and pepper over bread. Top with slices tomatoes and spinich, if wanted. top with another light layer of cheese and garlic, pop in the oven until crispy and cheese is melty, cut into strips and you have a filling flavorful app
Chocolate is a definite must. Also a fresh veggie tray with dip and a fresh fruit tray with dip. My favorite veggie dip is ranch (I swear that stuff is good on everything except ice cream!) and a great fruit dip is to mix 1 jar of marshmallow cream and 1 8 oz. package of cream cheese. Another easy treat is to pour some of your favorite salsa over a square of cream cheese, let it sit at room temperature to soften, then serve it up with tortilla chips. Good luck with your party.
