Cream Cheese Chicken for the Crock-Pot

3 Chicken Breasts cut up
1 package of Italian salad dressing mix or Tuscan Garlic Seasoning
4 T butter
1 small onion
1 garlic clove
1 can cream of chicken soup
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup chicken broth

1. Place cut up chicken breasts in crock pot and sprinkle the package of seasoning.
2. Slice 2T butter and put into crock pot.  Cook on low for about 4-6 hours (longer doesn't hurt it). (I cooked mine on high for about 3 hours.)
3. An hour before serving saute onion and garlic with remaining 2T of butter. Combine sauteed mixture, cream of chicken soup, cream cheese and chicken broth. Cook until smooth.
4. Add mixture to crock pot and cook on low for another hour.

Gingerbread House Icing

I ended up adding more sugar to stiffen it up some. I used my blender to make it so it may have gotten a little too hot and thus the need for extra sugar. It worked wonderfully though!
Ingredients
  • 1 pound sifted confectioners' sugar or more as needed
  • 1/2 cup pasteurized egg whites (3 large egg whites)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
