jcollie719 | Extra-cheesy Thanksgiving

~~All~~ Some of the Thanksgiving and pre-Thanksgiving dishes I've looked at have cream cheese in them. I originally considered making a sausage-stuffed jalapeño appetizer for the improv theater's party. Instead, I'll make a "Li'l Smoky Cheese Ball" (Amy Sedaris' recipe) and bring a box or two of crackers. For the desserts, I'll make a Nutella cheesecake for the improv party and a ~~pumpkin pie cheesecake~~ sweet potato dish for the singles dinner. I'll buy all the ingredients next Monday.

UPDATE: Since three other guests are bringing desserts for a group of 10-20 people, I offered to bring a sweet potato casserole instead.
