Party Food: The Cheesier, the Better!
Just like the sweaters themselves, when it comes to the food at an ugly sweater party, the motto is “the cheesier, the better!” Allow us to share some of our favorite cheesier-than-cheesy recipe picks:
Party Activities: Go Super On-Theme
When it comes to family activities for your ugly sweater party, it doesn’t get more on-theme than these adorable Ugly Christmas Sweater Sugar Cookies! Decorate cookies to match your family’s sweaters, and take a picture of each person holding their lookalike cookie to commemorate the occasion.
Bake cookies in advance so they have time to cool completely, and set up a decorating station for the party with assorted cookie icings (we like the kind in pouches), sprinkles, candies and more.
Tip: For the easiest cleanup ever, decorate cookies over rimmed baking sheets to catch drips and spills. Or tape down parchment paper to cover your decorating surface—when you’re done, you can just crumple the parchment and toss it away.

Party Music: Best Tunes to Stream
There’s nothing better than listening to great Christmas music while you decorate Ugly Sweater Sugar Cookies and party the night away with family. The Doughboy’s personal favorite station? Country Christmas! Stream it free at Pandora now.
Why is finding the best selection of Christmas music so important? Because this time of year, the music you listen to becomes about more than just the songs themselves. Years from now when you hear those same songs, you’ll instantly be transported to all the happy memories you made while listening. (“Remember the awesome ugly sweater party we had in 2019?”)
Party Attire: Outrageous, But in a Good Way
This is no time to hold back! It’s time to don the most over-the-top, delightfully ugly-cute sweaters you can find. Pro tip: If you find yourself wondering, “Is this too much?” then you’re on the right track!
If you’ve been admiring the Doughboy’s sweater, you might have noticed it skips right past “ugly-cute” to just…actually super cute. Hey, we tried! But how could anything with the Doughboy on it really be anything but completely adorable?
And this year, you can buy one of your own! We’ve made 1,000 of these limited-edition sweaters in kids’ sizes S-L and adult sizes XS-XXXL. But hurry—when they’re gone, they’re gone!
