Hosting a Christmas cookie exchange can be a fun and festive way to share treats with friends and family during the holiday season. Here are some steps to help you plan a successful cookie exchange:
- Decide on the guest list: Invite friends and family members who enjoy baking and would be interested in participating in the exchange.
- Set a date and time: Choose a date and time that works well for everyone and send out invitations.
- Determine the rules: Decide on how many cookies each participant should bring and if there are any specific types of cookies that should be made.
- Plan for packaging: Encourage participants to bring their cookies in containers that they don’t mind parting with or provide decorative bags or boxes for everyone to use to take their treats home.
- Create a festive atmosphere: Decorate your home or venue with holiday decorations, play festive music, and serve holiday-themed snacks and drinks.
- Exchange cookies: Have everyone place their cookies on a table, and let everyone take turns selecting cookies to take home.
- Have a contest: Consider having a friendly competition for the best cookie, and have guests vote on their favorites.
Remember to have fun and enjoy the company of your guests while sharing delicious holiday treats!
