A very unlikely combination, these Bacon Wrapped Pecan Stuffed Dates quickly become the life of the party.  Guests pick them up thinking they are Little Smokies, then having sampled the delicious synergy of flavors they just can’t get enough.

Buffalo Pork Bites with Blue Cheese Sauce

And while we are on the subject of savory, meaty appetizers, how about these Buffalo Pork Bites with Blue Cheese Dipping Sauce? I say YUM to that!

Bowl-Licking-Good-Guacamole

Maybe it is the Californian in me, but it wouldn’t be a party without some guac! Here is some Bowl-Licking-Good Guacamole from Carrie This Home.

And, because we all know that parties are the perfect way to justify eating more sweet treats than you would normally consume in an entire month, Here are a few party-perfect desserts.

White Chocolate Cinnamon Caramel Popcorn

You might have to stand guard over the snack table if you’re going to make this one.  Deliciously sweet with just a touch of salty, White Chocolate Cinnamon Carmel Popcorn is the perfect party treat!

New York Style Cheesecake

I don’t know about you, but I’m always in the mood for cheesecake.  This New York Style Cheesecake has a surprising ingredient, peanut butter!

Rolo Cake Mix Bars

Anyone a fan of Rolos?  Who isn’t?! I could definitely go for these 4 ingredient Rolo Cake Mix Bars!
