Honey, the type of person complaining about a clean but well used muffin tin, needs to face reality. When a person cooks all the time, pots and pans show the wear. Not everyone wants to spend every last cent they have embracing a throwaway mentality.

[@becki_booo]

So true!

[@bonniepwtf]

The baking pans and tins only get better the more you use them. Seriously something wrong with some folks & their need to pick at others.

[@audreycasassa1683]

Exactly!!!

[@priscillaweightman8380]

I was thinking to myself the same thing!

[@hannahwadsworth2150]

Use it up, wear it out. Make with do or do without! (I think that's the saying my mom says) ❤

[@alainawilliamson5570]

Bless your heart for having to defend the pans. Anyone who cooks and bakes regularly can tell that its age on the tin, not food! These are all great ideas, thank you for the video!

[@urbanhomesteadingchannel1813]

The fact that you used Duke's in your spinach and artichoke appetizer makes you one of my favorite people 💚

[@bonnieroberts2880]

Girl, you outdid yourself love your recipes perfect timing. Also, I can see you put a lot of work into this video. You are such a kind soul and you have a big heart love love love you.

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you so much, that means a lot! 🥹❤️

[@bonniepwtf]

Everything you made looked so good and you presented them so nicely.🎉

[@donnacarr3782]

Love your recipes! My muffin pan looks exactly like yours,I love it. 😊

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you!!

[@nicknack6042]

OMG you are always invited to the potluck!! Those cheesecakes and meatballs look soooo amazing!

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you!! ❤️

[@gailroscoe7809]

Thank you for these. Some of my baking pans are over 60 years old. I appreciate that you are using your pans until they can’t be used anymore. It makes a lot more sense than using disposable pans. You are young, but you have wonderfully old fashioned ideas about practicality. Also, I’m going to try those meatballs with this method. :)

[@judilewis1348]

Great recipes! Can’t wait to try!

[@joanbeaudry8371]

I would love to have dishes that look like yours, I am so jealous!

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

Perfect timing, I was just looking for new appetizer recipes to create.

[@KristinStepp]

❤️❤️

[@p_clounch]

Thanks for sharing Kristin! The cheesecakes looked so perfect and Pinterest worthy! ❤❤ I hope you have a great holiday season 😊😊

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you SO much!! 💗💗

[@patriciadavidson6696]

All look yummy. Thank you.

[@whoooami2090]

I have to admit, I’ve watched many appetizer videos that were just thrown together and didn’t seem like they would have a great taste. Your appetizers not only look great but seem like they would taste scrumptious as well.

[@peskycitizen7582]

I’ve made the mini cheesecakes but used a Nabisco Nilla wafer (or any vanilla wafer brand) as the base. Works great and saves time and tastes great.

[@caroleezekiel6000]

I have too. Instead of making a strawberry sauce, I used cherry pie filling, or you could use any flavor pie filling.

[@peachieledbetter4550]

😊

[@kristengibson7127]

Thank you for the tip for the meatballs. I always put in my crockpot. I make homemade meatballs, chili sauce and grape jelly. I'm not a fan of cranberry, but I love sweet baby Ray's, sweet and spicy sauce 😊.

[@lisagrafton2529]

I would love to eat every appetizer you made! They look and sound delicious! Then I'd top it off with the cheesecake!!! My family made something similar, but we use vanilla wafers as the crust! Just put a vanilla wafer in the bottom of a cupcake liner, and proceed with the cheesecake layer!!

[@vickiebohy7609]

Exactly. It looks like my aunts', mom's and grandmothers' pans. Well used.

[@Anna-dz3mm]

Couldn't help but notice ur temptations cobalt blue lid it or baking pan. That's the same pattern I collect. Love these recipes. Thank u for sharing

[@Erica_O_No]

I started adding chopped up shrimp steamed with either old bay or tony chacheres to my spinach artichoke dip, it’s a winner. I love the idea of making the wonton cups! These are all great ideas, living in Alabama, they are all right up my alley!

[@rachelhutto4539]

Oooooo those cheesecakes look amazing !! 🤩 always love a good cheese ball too

[@MaegensKitchen]

Those meatballs look so good!

[@beckysonnier6369]

Thank you. It all looked good

[@7389]

Love these ideas, thank you!

[@cheryllilley5115]

I am going to try ALL of these for our Superbowl party! It's only my husband and I at our party but I always make a "grazing" appetizer spread for us and these fit the bill perfectly! Also, Love your videos so much, you are one of my favorites, Kristin! Would love to see your charcuterie boards you make!

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you so much!!

[@deeannamorrison8587]

Your recipes sound delicious! I can't wait to try them!!😊

[@YdnickniL]

I always go for the cheese ball. Looks like a good recipe.

[@lauriebertrand9319]

I can’t wait to make the meatballs! They look delicious! Thanks for sharing!

[@haylieathome]

You have a genuine positivity that stops and makes a person think to be thankful for the small things! Love your channel and your food! Have a great Holiday season! 🎄

[@stephaniehays4527]

[@dbdesigning]

[@lakore1201]

Loving these recipes!

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you!!

[@claudialaquidara9723]

Wonderful ideas - I'm going to make the mini cheesecakes for sure and the wonton cups, too.

[@karenwalker3233]

Oh my goodness I can’t wait to try these!!

[@ingodsgoodness2160]

These are great recipes! I plan to make all of them for upcoming parties. Thanks for making this video.

[@91brittanyc]

Yum!! I’m definitely making the meatballs for a get together next weekend 😊

[@suznknight5896]

I liked your comment about how you felt making the strawberry sauce. I find cooking so satisfying!

[@clairesimoneaux1632]

All of these recipes look so delicious! I agree with you..every party needs a sandwich! Those pinwheels are calling my name, as well as the spinach and artichoke wontons. Yum! Thank you so much for sharing and happy holidays!

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you!! ❤️

[@ameliastelmach148]

Wishing you and your family a wonderful holiday season!

[@MaritaCovarrubias01]

Those cheesecakes look amazing!

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you!!

[@WeepingWillow422]

That cheeseball... my tastebuds say yum 😋 but my gut says don't even think about it 😩 (I don't digest dairy very well). Those mini cheesecakes look like they came out of a bakery!

[@KristinStepp]

That’s the best compliment, thank you!!

[@lisagrafton2529]

My mother inlaw makes a cheese all using those little packs of chipped beef. My kids all requested one for their high school graduation party!! It's been awhile since I've had it. Now I'm craving it!!

[@jessicashowalter2304]

These all look amazing!! 😍

[@michellemorgan9075]

Those look so tasty!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@makylabotello9731]

When I do crockpot meatballs I like to use catalina dressing, orange marmalade, and red pepper flakes. I’ll have to try them in the oven now 😋 Everything looks so good!! 😁

[@natashachesney178]

Love these recipes! They look good and easy to do especially the club party rolls.

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you!!

[@XOXO-yr9yh]

Everything looks so good! Definitely going to try every one of these. I usually make a cheese ball with just cream cheese, dried beef, and green onions. Excited to try this new one. 😊

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you!! I love the dried beef cheese balls!

[@tishgoss9259]

Great recipes!

[@yoncbwl2738]

Kristin, Thank you! This is right on time for my work Christmas party next week. I was struggling for ideas, lol

[@KatLadyNWFL]

Yummy recipes! Thank you for sharing! 🙏

[@bap8195]

These all look so yummy😋😋

[@lyndaslocum7404]

A little corn starch dissolved in water added to the sauce makes it a little firmer. I make these in tiny muffin pans. Love all of your ideas

[@cheerfulcleaninghanne]

Thanks for sharing, the food looks delicious as always! 😋

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you!!

[@BenjamintheTortoise]

Wowww... All of these ideas were so original and unique. Thanks so much for sharing them with us!! The cheesecake cups were my favorite (I'm honestly drooling over here) 😂..... so I'll definitely be trying to make those!! Much love 💞😊

[@KristinStepp]

❤️❤️❤️

[@maryhull531]

[@murphy81775]

[@penguinsnsquirrels]

I am going to be trying the spinach and artichoke dip stuffed wontons because I absolutely love spinach and artichoke dip. I wonder if you could do it with Buffalo chicken dip as well? Great video as always. Happy Holidays!

Every one of these look amazing!

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you!

[@terribaht6353]

I make the cheesecake all the time , family favorites..

[@hairdebi]

A muffin pan like a cookie sheet need to be seasoned in order to cook evenly, yours still looks brand new. Mine are almost black they’ve been seasoned for over Thirty years, I wouldn’t trade them for a brand new shiny set.

[@dwynn57]

gurl, you always bring it to the next level! thanks so much for sharing! loved the video and can't wait to make these delicious recipes! xoxo

[@KristinStepp]

Thank you so much!

[@deangibson5220]

Hi Kristin. Suck awesome party hors d'oeuvres/appetizers. The meatball one is a must-try for me. Actually, I would love to try them all. The Club Party Rolls were different and looked so good. That wooden cake stand is absolutely adorable. Have a great weekend, dear one.
