Or try our easy party dips you can whip up at the last minute and rosemary nuts you can make days in advance. And for a real show stopper on New Year’s Eve, try our smoked salmon mousse which is served on cucumber rounds; you could also serve it on puff pastry rounds. And lamb lollipops with mint pesto are fun to eat and delicious. Both will make the evening feel extra special. And to help your guests stay awake until the stroke of midnight, think about serving them an espresso martini or a coffee margarita! For a twist on a classic, try our delicious negroni sour. And don’t forget about the non-drinkers! Our blackberry lavender soda is a great mocktail that makes the evening feel special. To go all out, try our roast porchetta or chocolate braised pork ribs. Both are insanely rich and delicious and take the meal to the next level. Serve both of these with sour cream mashed potatoes, garlic butter mushrooms, and a kale salad and you’ll have a meal to remember. If you’re craving seafood, try our favorite lingcod recipe which is bathed in lemon garlic brown butter. Cod with tomatoes and olives is a wonderful meal, especially with a slice of buttered sourdough to mop up the sauce. For an ultra-cheesy meal, make it special with a New Year’s Eve cheese fondue. Or keep it cozy with a pot of four cheese mac and cheese! (Bonus here is that any leftover noodles taste great reheated on New Year’s Day. Amaretto poached pears and citrus-flavored orange blossom panna cotta are two sophisticated desserts that are perfect for welcoming in the new year. If you’re a cake fan, you’ll love our chocolate beet cake that is frosted in all-natural pink buttercream and our frosted coconut pineapple upside down cake. Both are beautiful and delicious! For something simple that the whole crowd is guaranteed to love, try sweet bacon caramel popcorn or whipped cream filled profiteroles.
