These are usually a hit with the same crowd.

You’ve gotten some good suggestions. Keep it to things that are easy to pick off the platter with tongs or a spoon.

December means cheese balls, which I never see the rest of the year. Cheese anything is good. The little cranberry goat cheese logs at Trader Joe’s…yes, please!

Fondue is fun! I also love a good cheese plate.

I always put out chips and salsa, and often homemade guacamole using the Rosa Mexicano recipe. It’s great!

Deviled eggs in 2 flavors (usually smoked paprika and one that has lox flavor incorporated).

Candied pecans are a hit. Dates wrapped in bacon. Goat cheese and fig toast.

I am not personally a fan of either pigs in blankets or deviled eggs, but agree that they are wiped out at any event I’ve ever attended.

Cream cheese with pepper jelly

I also love a good charcuterie

If everyone is going to be standing, think about how they can balance the food and eat it. Lean toward one-bite things like mini quiche, meatballs, poppers.

Old school stuff is the best stuff. Agree with your entire list. Plus PPs’ suggestions of bacon-wrapped anything, and shrimp cocktail.

Came here to say jalapeño poppers, but agree with pps who say old school stuff is the best. I also love spinach artichoke dip with crusty bread. Get a baguette and slice it up - delicious!

I love dips because my family doesn’t like them and I need a crowd to enjoy them with.

Caramelized onion, spinach and artichoke, cream cheese and salsa, 7 layer dip, etc.

I also like the tortilla roll ups with cream cheese, scallions, and other fixins

Spanakopita, the frozen ones.

Don't forget something sweet. A tray of various Greek treats.

I agree with many of the suggestions already made and would add:

- vegetable + fruit skewers
- brie wheel with nice crackers
- chicken wings
- nice selection of nuts and cheeses
- bruschetta

For New Years Eve we have a dip off. Everyone makes a dip. We don’t have a large family, but five dips ends up being almost a meal. Then we play games and drinks.
