Welcome to DC. I haven't seen a ton of contest talk, but I'm sure they are out there and would love to talk about it!

I'm interested in one thing though. What type of contest did you win, and with what did you win it with? I've never seen a contest in real life, but it does sound fun!

Steffi- was that the one where you had to make a dessert using krispy kream doughnuts as the main ingredient???

[steffi67]

[steffi67]

i made extreme pumpkin cheesecake i used donuts for crust and topping

[DaveSoMD]

yep.. I remeber that recipe. It was in the Tast of the South Magaine! It is here in my pile of cooking magazines.

I'm hoping to find out about some contests on here. :-)
