oooh oooh party. Ravioli. Recently saw stuffed rigatoni and it sounded wonderful. Filled yeast breads. spinach and cheese, pepperoni and cheese, everything and cheese calzone or stromboli.
King cake, or filled sweet bread.
I do a brownie with a chambord cheese center. Pour half the batter and then the cheese finish off with the other half of the batter.
Meats, chicken rolled with a nice filling/stuffing
eggplant rolatini.
Now I am hungry.

JerzeeTomato, you're amazing!
Burritos are always popular. You can also do lots with phyllo dough--there were some good suggestions posted on Serious Eats around a week ago, I think. And how about won ton wrappers: http://chinesefood.about.com/od/dimsumandpartyrecipes/ss/foldwonton.htm

My mother's favorite is a manicotti I make. The noodles are 1 cup of flour, one cup of water, and one egg, and are made like crepes, then stuffed with ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, and eggs, covered with tomato sauce, and baked.
Also, jumbo shells stuffed with the same filling.

Farcis, the nicois stuffed vegetables, are wonderful. A ground pork stuffing in halved tomatoes, peppers, aubergines, courgettes--any or all.

A deep fried Panzarotti. It must be deep fried!

For those who don't know (and I didn't know about courgettes, I had to look it up):
aubergines, courgettes = melanzani, zuchini = eggplant, Italian squash

Plain buns (man tao) stuffed with roasted duck, a smear of hoision sauce and some spring onions.
Pork chops stuffed with an apple & raisin stuffing.
Jumbo shrimp, stuffed with lump crabmeat mixture (crabmeat, breadcrumbs, egg, celery salt, etc) and finished with a garlic cream sauce.
Fried tofu (that's been stuffed with a pork and shrimp mixture).

Great filled foods that I would consider bringing to a party happening this month include
* crepes (using Full Belly Farm flour, Straus milk, Ludwig Ave Farms eggs) filled with roasted asparagus, Fiscalini bandage-wrapped cheddar, topped with bechamel sauce
* Italian torta filled with chard, Redwood Hill goat feta, green garlic, and eggs
* mini-boreks with spinach and cheese filling
* crepes filled with strawberries and toasted pecans, topped with creme fraiche
* dates stuffed with nuts and goat cheese drizzled with honey
* if a roulade counts as something filled, perhaps a chocolate cake with some kind of strawberry filling
Other times of year would have different fillings, of course, like tomatoes or stone fruit in the summer, apples in the fall.

Oh wow, I would have to second to many of the comments above. Each nation has its own version of something stuffed and usually it's always quite tasty. Pierogis, knishes, mandu (Korean dumplings), shumai, samosas (double yum b/c it is deep-fried!), ravioli, summer rolls, spring rolls, soup dumplings, steamed red-bean buns, mochi, the pork buns at Momofuku, arancini! (risotto balls stuffed with mozzarella and deep-fried), and the list goes on. Oh boy, I am getting hungry just thinking about all of this!

At Christmas I made chocolate filled wontons...my my god...these cookies are so incredible. I topped them with icing sugar, which mad a nice glaze. I honestly used Nutella...but any type of gooey filling will do. I'd use homeafd truffles for example...You need to deep fry them to get the crispy texture. Fabluous, fabulous, fabulous....
