Fun New Years Party Ideas

In the past, I have done old movie night where you watch movies one from each decade you were born. I have done a New Years Eve fancy dinner complete with steak and lobster. I have thrown a girl’s night in 80’s party. I have also thrown a buffet party with my kids to watch the ball drop. This year I am going to do a Chocolate Fondue Dessert Party. I know squeal isn’t that a great idea? Who doesn’t like chocolate?

7. You will greet your guests warmly with holiday cheer.

Tips: The table should be tall so people can stand and chat or seat are fine as long as people are close enough to reach the fondue pot. I suggest an electric fondue pot because it is easier to control.

You can see at my Chocolate Fondue Party I made several varieties of chocolate. I used the candy melts I found at Save-A-Lot.

Here is another bonus white chocolate fondue idea

The easiest recipe is to use 1/2 cup of heavy cream, 1 package of candy melts, and 1 tsp vanilla or peppermint extract. You just place the milk in the fondue pot and then add the candy melt on medium heat. Finally, you stir in the tsp of flavoring and turn the pot down to low.

I was able to grab these items to dip:

  1. Marshmallows
  2. Oranges
  3. Strawberries
  4. Cheesecake
  5. Angelfood cake
  6. Bananas
  7.  Pecans

Real Advice Gal tip: The best part of my party is I asked my guests to each bring an item to dip. They will bring cookies, pretzels, nuts, pound cake, and pineapple.
