Christmas Cookie recipe transfer - Fun Holiday Event

Who doesn't like homemade Christmas cookies?

When I was a little girl my favorite holiday treat was no-bake cookies. I remember the sweet aroma throughout the house and the delightful gems lined up across the kitchen counter on waxed paper.

Cookie Bake

Mom made them perfect. She always made them around Christmas time. She made other kinds of cookies, but the no-bake ones stick in my mind.

Are you pressed for time or energy this holiday season and you just don't have the time to make a big variety of homemade cookies? I have a authentically fun solution for you!

Host a Christmas cookie method replacement party. This is an exquisite way to obtain a nice assortment of Christmas cookies. The key to this event is "how many show up"...the more guests you invite, the more recipes and cookies you will end up with.

This event can even involve a holiday meal before hand as well to make it more festive. This is authentically up to you. But, the whole one rule is...each guest that attends has to bring so many dozens of only one type of homemade cookie along with their recipe. (the exact whole of cookies are decided upon by the hostess).

Important Tips For Your Cookie replacement Event

1. It's best to print the recipes on index cards. Each guest will need to bring many copies of their recipe. Make sure your guests include their names on top of each method copy. It would be a good idea for you to have extra index cards on hand just in case there is not enough to go around to each guest that attends.

2. Have your guests call you to let you know what method they will be preparation and bringing to the event. (just to make sure none of them are bringing the same recipe) Of course, you want them all to be unique to contribute a good variety.

3. Have some festive throw away containers or trays available for each of your guests to obtain their cookies in.

4. If you decide on a meal...to make it easy on yourself, finger foods work authentically well for this type of event. Make it a buffet style. A good idea for a beverage would be some hot cider.

5. Have fun with this event and set a festive table display!
