Appetizers
Pea Pesto Crostini – http://bakingwithbasil.com/2010/01/25/pea-pesto-crostini/
- These bite size appetizers are perfect for a holiday party. You can cut the crostini in half to make them easier for guests to eat. And they are soo festive for this time of year! Love those colors!
Avocado Chimichurri Bruschetta - http://bakingwithbasil.com/2010/09/21/avocado-chimichurri-bruschetta/
Deconstructed Taco Dip Bites - http://bakingwithbasil.com/2010/11/01/deconstructed-taco-dip-bites/

Cheese and Beer Bread - http://bakingwithbasil.com/2009/11/15/cheese-and-beer-bread/
- I have taken this bread to so many places it’s now requested that I bring it. The addition of jalapenos gives this bread a little extra kick!

Sweets/Desserts
Mint Brownie Buttons - http://bakingwithbasil.com/2010/03/15/brownie-buttons/
- These bite sized brownies are not overly minty or sweet. The recipe listed also has a fun citrus zest variation if you aren’t a mint fan.
Amazing Fudgy Brownies - http://bakingwithbasil.com/2010/06/03/amazing-fudgy-brownies/
- Probably the most rich, decadent brownies I’ve had. Make sure to cut them bite size – a little goes a long way for some.
Peanut Butter Bar Cookie - http://bakingwithbasil.com/2010/03/22/peanut-butter-bar-cookie/
- Oh so soft and peanut buttery!
Salted Peanut Chews - http://bakingwithbasil.com/2009/12/21/salted-peanut-chews/
- I apologize in advance for the bag photography, but don’t let that stop you from making these. We make this “pay day” spin every year at my parents – so good!
Breakfast
