Cookie Exchange

I attended my very first cookie exchange this year. I thought long and hard about what I was going to make... I knew I wanted something super yummy....something super Christmassy... So, I decided to invent Peppermint Bark Cookies. Basically just Chocolate chocolate chip cookies drenched in white chocolate and crushed peppermint pieces.


Now, I had to make 8 doz of them. No small feat with a small child that doesn't let you out of her eyesight.... or armslength...





Hours later... I thought up how I would package them, because from everything I've ever heard about cookie exchanges the package is just as important as the cookies themselves...





Here is what I left home with... 14 beautiful, bountiful bags of cookies.





Here is what I brought home with me...



I thought cookie exchanges were all about the packaging???

Guess I was way off base on that one!
