Don't be stuck with only one kind of
holiday cookie to offer your guests --
have a cookie exchange!

What is a Cookie Exchange?

This holiday season, the last thing on your mind is baking a wide variety of cookies. Presents still need to be bought and wrapped. The house needs to be cleaned for the relatives, and the Christmas dinner still needs to be cooked. But if you still want to be able to offer your holiday guests a tray full of various goodies, try hosting a cookie exhange to help ease your mind of cookie chaos. It's a quick and easy way to get a wide assortment of delicious holiday cookies and it will help get you and your friends in the holiday spirit with a fun and festive party. Just invite 8 - 12 people to bring their favorite holiday cookies for each person attending the party. At the party, everyone swaps cookies and ends up with 8 - 12 different kinds of delicious holiday treats instantly! A holiday cookie exchange saves you time because you only have to bake one kind of cookie, and it saves you money because you only have to buy the ingredients for one recipe. If you feel that hosting an exchange at your home would be too stressful, try holding one at work. A cookie exchange can easily be done over the lunch hour or right after work.

I started using www.signupgenius.com/christmas to invite people to my cookie exchange and find out what kind of cookies they are going to bring. It has definitely alleviated some of my organization stress. I definitely don't want to end up with 12 dozen chocolate chip cookies!
