Easter Party Snack Ideas + Recipes

I love Easter and every year I look forward to holding a big Easter dinner for the family and the annual Easter Egg Hunt for the kids. I’ve been doing both of these activities for the past 30 years and I’m always looking for new ideas.

Easter is only a few days away and the great folks over at FamilyFun Magazine sent over some easy-to-make and adorable Easter party snack ideas that you can whip up quickly.

Banana Bunny Pops

For each pop, cut two 1-inch long skinny ovals from the ribs of a cupcake liner; crease the middle to make the ears. Cut a banana into 2-inch pieces. Push an ice-pop stick into each piece; freeze for 5 minutes. Pour candy melts into a bowl and microwave per package instructions until smooth (if it’s lumpy, stir in about ¼ tsp. of vegetable shortening); let cool slightly. Remove pops from the freezer and dip into the candy. Let the excess drip off and place on a wax paper–covered cookie sheet. Add jumbo nonpareils for the eyes and nose. Slide the ears behind the head and chill in the fridge until ready to serve. To present upright, press each stick into a piece of fabric-covered flower foam (make holes first).

Veggie Flowers

For tulips, cut the tops off mini sweet peppers; for daisies, cut the mini pepper into ½-inch wide rings. Remove the seeds and use the knife to make a small hole in the bottom of the tulip or on one side of the ring. Insert string beans into holes, and serve with your favorite dip.

Yogurt Chicks

Use paint pens to draw eyes and a beak onto small, cleaned glass jars (like baby food jars); let dry. Fill the jars with your favorite yogurt, then top with shredded coconut.

Now that I’ve shared these 3 Easter party ideas with all of you, I would like to know which of the 3 is your favorite idea? Do you host a big dinner and do fancy party food like this?
