Open in Pepper →The Snacks That Disappear First
A good savory snack does a lot of work for very little fuss. It fills the gap before dinner, it feeds a crowd standing up in the kitchen, and it keeps people happy while you finish everything else.
Cooks on Pepper reach for this collection on game days, for church potlucks and birthday parties, and on those nights when a tray of little things beats sitting down to a real meal.
Every recipe here is something you can carry in a dish and set down: buffalo chicken dip, baked spinach dip, deviled eggs and Cajun shrimp deviled eggs, sausage balls, crab stuffed mushrooms, jalapeño popper pigs in a blanket, and mini everything cheese balls.
Quick Tips
- 1
Soften the cream cheese
Let the brick sit out 30 to 45 minutes before mixing. Cold cream cheese leaves lumps in dips and cheese balls no amount of stirring fixes.
- 2
Bake dips uncovered
Give hot dips 20 to 25 minutes at 350°F, uncovered, so the top browns and the edges bubble instead of turning watery.
- 3
Steam eggs for peeling
Steam eggs 13 minutes, then dunk in ice water 5 minutes. The shells slip off clean and your deviled eggs stay smooth.
- 4
Chill dough before slicing
Pop crescent or puff pastry back in the fridge 10 minutes before cutting. Cold dough cuts clean and puffs higher in the oven.
