| Happy *almost* New Year, friends! I hope you've had a fun and relaxing holiday season and are excited about all 2024 will bring. It's been so fun looking back on the year and all that we accomplished here at AK. In case you missed it, check out our reader favorite recipes and my personal favorite recipes from the whole year! We couldn't be doing what we do without all of you -- our incredible AK readers -- so thank you from the bottom of my heart. Last chance for December's Recipe of the Month: this might've been our biggest month yet! We've loved seeing all of your cinnamon roll creations over the holidays. Tomorrow is the LAST day to make and share them on the blog or social, so get the deets here! We'll be dropping January's Recipe of the Month on Wednesday, 1/3. Looking for last-minute apps for your New Year's Eve plans? I've got you covered with 5 of my favs below!
5 last-minute New Year's Eve appetizers Parmesan Crusted Crostini with Pear, Walnuts & Hot Honey Our latest crostini creation has crispy, savory parmesan cheese baked right onto the baguette slices, plus juicy pear, crunchy walnuts, and a drizzle of hot honey. Truly appetizer PERFECTION. 
Bacon Wrapped Dark Chocolate & Goat Cheese Stuffed Dates If you've never had bacon wrapped dates before you're in for the ultimate treat. My version starts with tangy goat cheese and a little dark chocolate stuffed right into the date, which creates the most incredible flavor! 
Hot Honey & Basil Pepperoni Pizza Dip It's easy, it's cheesy, it's my bubbly hot pepperoni pizza dip made with 3 types of cheese and topped with a drizzle of hot honey. Serve it up with toasty bread, crackers, pita chips, and anything your heart desires. 
Scallion Jalapeño Popper Stuffed Mushrooms Our team fell in LOVE with these little bites after we tested them a couple of years back. They're full of savory, umami flavors and a kick of heat from jalapeño. Guaranteed to impress friends! 
Chicken Parmesan Meatballs Okay, how cute are these?! Chicken meatballs get stuffed with gooey mozzarella cheese, rolled in a crispy parmesan coating, and baked to perfection. Top with a little marinara and extra cheese for a delicious bite.
