Turkey Day Dressing--par for excellant-

From an old Lady who took care of us in Athens--long-long,long ago--(some changes) added

1-- Sixteen oz. Pepperidge farm Herb dressing mix
2--2 rounds of corn bread made in 10 inch skillet crumbled up
3.--2 or 3 biscuits or pieces of white bread crumbled up (as in toast both sides)
Four 1 chopped onion
3 or four eggs
Some turkey drippings or 1 stick of melted salted butter
Lots of chicken broth to moisten the dressing

Mix up all bread using a big bowl--add chopped onion-mix--add about three eggs-- mix this and if it's to stiff add another egg. pour in turkey drippings and 1  stick of melted butter Mix this around...this is when you start adding the chicken broth --you want to add enough broth to make a mixture that's a little stiffer than cake batter...if the mixture isn't liquid enough, the dressing will be dry---pour the mixture into a buttered shallow pan---Bake about forty five minutes at four hundred degrees...I have found that dressing tastes best when it is about 2 inches thick...I like it sort of moist inside--not sticky--if you want it crispier just spread it in a thinner layer, in the pan or pans...you might need more than one pan...depending on what you use--adding biscuits or white bread makes the "Flesh" of the dressing a little creamier, which is the way I like it--add salt and pepper to taste.. Biscuits were the ones usually left over from breakfast…

Made the above for turkey day and guess what I left out something--cause I'm stupid and was involved in many things other than what I should have been doing--what did I leave out the Pepperidge Farm Herb dressing mix--well maybe next time --I still ate the stuff...
