What to serve

When hosting a Chicks and Dip party, it’s important to have a variety of delicious and easy-to-eat snacks and several dips, which are always crowd-pleasers.

You can also add pre-chopped fruit and veggie trays to keep it snacky. Or if you want your menu to be a little bit more hearty, you can serve something super easy like meatballs with marinara to dip them in. Or even French Dip sandwiches.

You can make the dips, but I like to pair a few homemade dips with some store-bought ones to make it easier on myself. I don’t need to be a party hero. And I like to pick dips that pair with different dippers.

Dip Recipes and Ideas

Don’t forget about serving something sweet. Dessert Dips are my favorite!

This Berry Cheesecake Dip, Strawberries Romanoff Dip or Cake Mix and Cream Cheese Dessert Dip would all be the perfect finishing touch to your evening.

Drink Ideas

No party is complete without a few cocktails or mocktails to sip on. Here are some fun drink ideas to serve at your chicks and dip party:

  • Margaritas: A classic cocktail that’s perfect for a girls’ night in. Serve them on the rocks or frozen, with salt or without.
  • Sangria: A fruity and refreshing drink made with wine that’s perfect for a summer party. Make a big batch and let your guests help themselves.
  • Moscow Mules: A refreshing cocktail made with vodka, ginger beer, and lime juice. Serve them in copper mugs for an extra special touch.
  • Wine: A simple and easy option that’s always a crowd-pleaser. Serve a variety of red, white (I prefer sauvignon blanc), and sparkling wines to suit everyone’s tastes.

In addition to dips and cocktails, nuts, mini pickles, and olives are also great options for snacking. With these ideas, you’ll be sure to throw a chick and dip party that your guests will love.

Create a nice atmosphere

You don’t have to get elaborate with decorations for a party like this. The goal should be to create a cozy, inviting atmosphere that allows your friends to relax and have a great time.

Make sure to provide plenty of seating so your guests can sit down, kick back, and enjoy the evening. Whether you’re binging a favorite show or just chatting with music on in the background, don’t let this part stress you out.

A few candles and fresh flowers go a long way in adding a little pizzazz to the space you are used to seeing every day.

Tips to keep hosting easy

Prep in advance

To make sure hosting a Chicks and Dip Party is easy, try to do as much of the prep work before guests arrive as possible. This could include preparing the dips the day before, pre-squeezing citrus for cocktails, and setting up furniture. Doing this beforehand will help keep things running smoothly while your friends are there.

Ask guests to help

If you want to make it more potluck style, you can ask your friends to bring something (like a dip or an extra bottle of wine) or assign them a task like passing out plates and utensils once they get there. This will help take some of the burdens off you as the hostess and make sure everyone feels involved in the party.

Have fun

Above all, remember to have a good time. Aside from maybe straightening up quickly, just enjoy being with your friends and don’t worry about perfection. Letting go of that can make hosting a lot more enjoyable!

How to Make This Party Idea Go from a Few Friends to a Larger Group

One way to make this party idea go from a few friends to a larger group is by adding more food and drink options. If the original plan was to serve just a few dips and dippers, you will need to up the quantities and maybe even add more variety.

Drinks-wise, you will want to look for large-batch cocktail ideas (sangrias are still a great option, or you can make a pitcher of margaritas and this Large-Batch White Russian is always a fun idea) and consider adding in a large dispenser of fruit-infused water.

If you’re worried about the cost of liquor, just choose one signature drink, like a classic Moscow Mule and have all the ingredients on hand to make those.

No matter what you decide to serve at your Chicks & Dip party, the most important part is having a good time. So gather up some friends, pour yourself a drink and enjoy the company of great people – that’s what this night is all about! Enjoy!
