Devil's Holiday Dinner Party

Before my roommate and best friend Maddie leaves Brooklyn for Rome she hosted her last dinner out of our tiny kitchen. She has kept me and countless friends very well fed for almost two years now, but that isn't the only reason I will miss her very much. I'm staying positive with the prospect of a springtime trip to Rome and even more amazing pasta recipes when she returns. For dinner she served Devils on Horseback, Devil's Chicken Thighs and Braised Leeks, and Guinness Devil's Food Cake. Naturally, they were all heavenly.
