Are you on the hunt for the perfect Christmas Party Appetizers everyone will love? Then look no further!
These delicious baguette and cream cheese bites topped with mini mozzarella and tomato snowmen are the ultimate recipe to feed a crowd, and they couldn't be easier.
Serve these fun holiday appetizers on a large platter, or turn them into a festive snowman salad.
You'll need canapé sticks with a star or round top to act as the pom-pom on the snowman's hat. You can also omit this step and place the snowmen directly onto the bread and cream cheese.
Try my festive bruschetta, savory Christmas wreath, or sausage roll snowmen for other Christmas party food ideas.
