Dill Dip with Potato Chips
Mac and Cheese Canapés
These are insanely good.

Peppery Cheese Straws
Prosciutto-Cheese Gougères
These gougères were so good I’ve been planning an after New Years dinner party just so I can make them again! The prosciutto and spices in the dough gives a great savory flavor that goes so well with drinks. Man, I love these little gems.

Turkish Cigars
Salmon Mousse Pinwheels
Loved these pinwheels! Great idea when planning for a tea party, dinner party, Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Years.

Prosciutto, Pear, and Brie Toasts
Mexican Sopes
This sopes recipe combines 3 things I love- homemade masa corn tortillas, slow cooked pork, and tequila!

Popcorn Cauliflower Bites
Stilton and Walnut Crackers
This stilton cracker recipe is a winner. They are delicious. They are easy to make and, for me, a wonderful part is that I can make a double or triple batch and freeze the logs, then slice and bake. This means that when I am having friends for cocktails or or dinner, this is one fewer item I need to prepare that day.
I have served them three times and each time, I have been asked for the recipe. The combination of walnuts, stilton, and salt makes the perfect prelude to dinner.

Air Fryer Jalapeño Poppers
Portuguese Coconut Custard Tarts
These coconut tarts are beyond wonderful. My 11-year-old grandson inhaled his and his mom and I weren’t far behind. Yum!

FAQs
A charcuterie board is an excellent option for offering to guests to graze on at a party. A well-rounded classic charcuterie board should include a selection of cured meats, soft and hard cheese, crackers, baguette, or toast rounds, spreads or condiments such as chutney, chicken pâté, or mustard, and some nuts, fruit, and/or pickles.
It will depend on the size of the dishes, but you should plan for each person to consume 4 to 6 pieces of food per hour they are at the party.
A good rule of thumb is to plan for 1 drink per guest for each 45 minutes of the party.
