7. Snowman Cheese Ball

This cute snowman is made from spiced cream cheese and will make a beautiful edible decoration for your Christmas party. This recipe makes one giant snowman, and while it says it serves 7, it could really feed 30 as an appetizer. Halve the recipe for a more reasonable size.

6. Cranberry Feta Pinwheels

Pinwheels make a great party snack. Somehow they taste better at a party than if you make them at home for yourself. This recipe uses dried cranberries and green onion for a great red and green theme. Make this even more seasonal with green or red tortillas.

4. Christmas Pizza

If using raw dough, you can make your pizza in almost any shape. This recipe shows a Christmas tree and candy cane shape, but we also love snowmen pizzas. Simply use three descending sizes of round pizzas and slightly layer them to make a snowman shape.

3. Pita Tree Appetizers

These cute and easy to make party snacks are perfect for health conscious guests. Use guacamole as the green color of the tree, and use diced vegetables for tree decorations. Younger guests will love decorating their own pita tree to eat.

2. Sausage Wreath

Have fun with shapes and make your part foods into wreaths. This mini sausage wreath comes out beautifully. Use crescent roll dough to wrap miniature sausages. Bake and then arrange when cool enough to touch. The bow in this recipe is made from red pepper to make it totally edible.

1. Peppermint Cheese Ball

We can’t forget about the sweet dessert treat at the end of parties. This play on a classic savory cheese ball is a real surprise for guests. Use cookies to scoop up this delicious cream cheese mint dip.
