How I Produced Festive Christmas Dinners as a Single Working Mom Working on, Yes, Christmas Eve, and How You Can, Too
Part 3

Boule De Niege

Very simple, cheap, elegant looking. Quick and can be done beforehand! Yay!

Buy ice cream -- peppermint, coconut, eggnog, pistachio. Let the ice cream soften just enough to work with, and then scoop it into a round Pyrex® that you've greased lightly with Pam®.

Put it in the freezer until well frozen again. (Don't you love the things you can do in stages? Maybe at this point you'll need to run the dog to the vet because it ate 2' of tinsel, like I did one Christmas, oh yes.)

Later ... take it out, soak the dish briefly in larger bowl of warm water til you see the ice cream melting on the edges, turn it over on a pretty serving platter, and out it comes in a dome. Tear strips of waxed paper and place them all around the plate, under the ice cream.

Now whip cream til stiff, put in pastry bag, use a tip such as Wilton 2D and pipe, pipe, pipe, little shaped blobs, each one next to the other till the mound is completely covered. Gently remove the waxed paper, wipe the serving platter with a wet rag, and place the ball back in the freezer till frozen.

Once it's frozen, cover it -- I put a stainless steel bowl over it -- and let it stay there til ready to serve. It's all elegant and white. Boule de niege is French for snowball!

You see, you can do all this right now, right after you read this article. It will sit in the freezer.

Now if you want to try this piping from the Redi-whip canister do NOT do that until minutes before you serve it. That stuff doesn't last like real whipped cream does. How do I know? Well, it was a very sad "learning experience" involving a Christmas luncheon for my bridge group and I'll leave it at that.

Beef Wellington

Make a mixture of Dijon mustard and those colored peppercorns that are red and green -- a four color melange" is available here. Coat the beef with this before you encrust it. You can also use this on turkey, Prime Rib, or Crown Roast.

P.S. Be sure and put dough cut outs atop the Beef Wellington, too! Let your helpers choose the shapes -- Christmas trees? Stars? I believe a gun was suggested at one point. (Don't ask.)

Individual Trifles

Here are some really cute star-shaped Christmas ramekins. Make trifle and put them in these dishes. Then smooth over the top with whipped cream.
