We're counting down the last few minutes until midnight, and we've got to get ready for the party of the year! The streamers are hung, the balloons are ready to go, and all we're waiting on are some killer New Year's Eve recipes and crafts to make the holiday season complete. So raise your champagne flute and get ready to toast in the new year in style!
Your New Year's party guests will be pleased as punch when they get a sip of our refreshing Celebration Punch. Stir this one together easily with your favorite bottle of bubbly and some convenient ingredients from the market freezer case.
You'll be the toast of the town when you ring in the new year with this "adults only" version of our old friend, gelatin. Our Champagne Dessert Cocktails are a novel way to celebrate, especially when you're looking for the perfect New Year's Eve recipe.
Take a "turn" with a new version of pizza. What's so different about it? This party appetizer looks great and is simple to make...'cause the sauce and cheese are baked right in!
The best shrimp cocktail makers know these secrets: Keep the shrimp firm and full of flavor by adding a splash of lemon juice to the water when it's boiling and drain but never rinse the shrimp after boiling. Try it!
Who would guess that beer is the secret ingredient to making our Jalapeno Cheese Bites and you, the toast of the town! These change-of-pace, spicy, bite-sized appetizers are sure to wake up sleepy taste buds, perfect for helping you to ring in the New Year.
Don't wait for a fish fry to make our easy party appetizer: hush puppies! Monterey Jack cheese and green chiles spice up these crispy hot bites, making them irresistible! To make sure the hush puppies are round, we use a small (1-inch) ice cream scoop to drop the batter into the hot oil.
We don't know why they call this turtle fudge, but it's kind of ironic because when we think of turtles, we think of something that moves slowly. This recipe moves really fast so you'll be all set to host your New Year's Eve party!
Our yummy Cashew Turtles are so easy to make and pack the pleasing contrast of smooth caramel and crunchy nuts. You can't go wrong with these New Year's desserts!
Bring the circus to town with Confetti Upside-Down Cake! You've never seen a cake this beautiful and brightly colored, perfect for making a splash at your New Year's Eve party.
If cheesecake is your weakness, you won't be able to resist these bite-sized mini cheesecakes that are so rich and yummy they'll satisfy your craving without overdoing it!
