Muuuurrrrdeeer!!!

One of my closest friends bought me a kit for a Murder Mystery party for Christmas and last Saturday night I decided to use it. I googled and googled and could not find what I was looking for, and more importantly what I thought everyone else would like! After much debating, I settled on an entree I kinda made up before and a cake I found on one website. It was so easy and delicious, I need to share!

Appetizers - veggies with ranch dressing, mozzerella cheese and tomatoes, brie and crackers and chicken wings

Drinks - red wine and "coolie" (champagne, 7up, sherbert)

Sides - wild brown rice, green beans and salad.

Entree - Apple Cider Pork

- package of boneless pork loins
- dash of minced garlic
- one potato
- a couple of granny smith apple
- 1/3 c. diced onion
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- tsp of nutmeg
- 1 cup apple cider

Peel and dice potatoes and place in crock pot with onions and dash of minced garlic. Brown each side of the pork loins in hot vegetable oil. Place in crock pot. Top with slices of granny smith apples. Add cinnamon sticks and nutmeg. Pour in half cup of apple cider. Cook on HIGH for 5 and 1/2 hours. Before serving, add remaining 1/2 cup of apple cider.

Dessert: Death by Chocolate Cake



- package of chocolate cake
- 2 small boxes of chocolate pudding
- cool whip
- a couple of crushed heath bars

Make the pudding and put it in the fridge to harden. Bake the cake. Let it cool. In a big bowl, put part of the cake on the bottom, layer chocolate pudding, cool whip, and then heath bars. repeat layers. top with cool whip and crushed heath bars

It was all a hit and a lot of fun! :) The key is to make the dinner easy but tasty!
