Need a Recipe for an "Open House"

In summary, some easy appetizer recipes for an open house include spinach and artichoke dip, mini quiches, bruschetta, and fruit and cheese platters. For a main dish, consider a slow cooker pulled pork or chicken dish or a build-your-own taco or sandwich bar. Dessert ideas include fruit skewers, mini cupcakes, and chocolate covered strawberries. To make the menu more budget-friendly, use affordable ingredients and ask guests to contribute. For guests with dietary restrictions, consider options like gluten-free pasta salad, vegetarian quiche, and dairy-free fruit skewers. Label dishes with potential allergens for guests to make informed choices.

The host will have appetizers and wine. It's a "night of shopping" event with a couple vendors like Tastefully Simple, Southern Living, PartyLite, and a jewelry DS company.

I will have my stuff set up on a card table and have an idea of what I'm going to display. I was hoping to have a small treat (or sample) of a PC recipe and I can't figure out what would be best. At first I was thinking holiday cookies from a cookie press but I don't have a cookie press or time to order it in time.

What have you done that worked well?
 
I made some Triple Layer Brownies - but make them a day before, cut them in small squares - great!I made mine in the stoneware, btw!
 
I put out (as an appetizer) last night at a party, a block of cream cheese with the raspberry habanero sauce over it served with crackers, and it was a big hit!! Just another idea for you.
