I got one of those adorable mini crock pots and now need recipes for it...
I am looking for any recipe but I am also hoping to find a great one to impress the inlaws for christmas party.
I was thinking a warm dip or something.
I also looked around the web for a dessert one- something with chocolate?
Any ideas out there??

Best answer: Mulled wine. Crockpot recipe (you may need to alter quantities for your 1.6 L pot).

There's this absolutely disgusting (in a good, artery-clogging) warm sausage dip thing. You don't make it in a crock pot, but you serve it in one. Brown a pound of spicy breakfast sausage in a skillet, drain off the fat, then melt in two of those square packages of cream cheese and a can of spicy Rotel. Transfer to a crock pot to keep it warm for serving. Someone served it at a open house - crackers and (god help me) Fritos scoops to eat it with. Oi.

My in-laws love chili cheese dip. Can of Cheez Wiz. Can of beanless chili. Mix together. Not necessarily the most healthy thing in the world, though.

the cute mini-crockpot usually comes with recipes. I made easy chocolate fondue in mine with the for a shower I gave. I learned that you really don't have to make other food when you have chocolate fondue...that is all people really need.

Your yia yia says "balls balls balls"?
Indian pudding seems like a common crock pot dessert. I've never made one that way myself, so I can't vouch for any specific recipes, but it seems reasonable — however you make 'em, they call for long, slow cooking.

I make an amazing cream cheese and spinach dip. Melt 2 8oz bricks of cream cheese and a frozen brick of spinach. Add some shredded swiss cheese and some garlic to taste. Yum! I make this to taste and tweak it depending on available ingredients. You could probably add artichoke hearts, crabmeat, asparagus, etc.
My mom makes a great crab fondue that would work in a mini-crock pot. From memory, its a brick of cream cheese, same amount of cheez-wiz, some half-and-half, can of crab, garlic and cayenne pepper to taste.
