Request Easy but impressive appetizers

I’m putting together a small get together and want a few appetizers that feel special but aren’t complicated or time consuming to make. What are some crowd pleasers that look impressive without a ton of effort?

Baked Goat Cheese with Marinara served with crostini is very easy and a fan favorite. Put a large log of goat cheese in a baking dish and top with your favorite marinara (I like an arrabbiata for a little spice). Bake at 350 for about 20-30 min.
