Need help deciding which New Year’s Eve appetizers to make for your party? These one-bite apps, hand-held snacks and mini desserts will stand out on any table, no matter where you are when the clock strikes midnight.
With a countdown ending the night, there’s a lot on the line when hosting a New Year’s Eve party. Did you choose the right New Year’s Eve traditions? Do you have your resolutions ready? Will you get kissed when the clock strikes midnight? And—most importantly—how are your New Year’s Eve appetizers holding up?
Food sets the stage for any party, but we find ourselves exhausted with sit-down holiday dinners by the time New Year’s Eve rolls around. Leaning on New Year’s Eve appetizers is a fantastic way to combat this. Think light bites, decadent but portable finger foods (like quick and easy puff pastry appetizers) or anything on a skewer or toothpick. Or go the sweet route and create a table lined with mini desserts.
These foods will lay the foundation for a party that you’ll actually get to enjoy. We’ve hand-selected the best New Year’s Eve appetizers that work whether you’re attending a sparkly soiree or just hanging out in your jammies while you watch the ball drop. Just be sure there’s a bottle of bubbly to pop right before midnight—even the best cheap Champagne will feel extra celebratory.
