Please recommend finger food or dessert?
Hi, I am a 'plus one' for a neighborhood bunko (sp??) party. I really feel as though I need to bring something. Anything fabulous that you ladies can recommend would be awesome. I had thought about lemon bars? But, is there something more exciting? Thanks!
Re: Please recommend finger food or dessert?
Not sure how crazy you want to go, but Ina Garten's stuffed mushroom recipe has always been a HUGE hit for me at numerous parties! What about deviled eggs?
I like your idea of lemon bars for dessert or what about some type of cookie? Chocolate chip; cinnamon-sugar (snickerdoodles); etc.
Good luck & enjoy!

I keep these in my freezer. The juxtaposition of the simple brown sugar butter cookies with the grown up spicy chocolate cookies really impresses people.
These are always a crowd pleaser, and are easy to make.
