Last week I got to experience my first every cookies exchange and it was SO much fun! A sweet girl from our church, Monica, was gracious enough to host the event for a whopping 27 women! Yes, 27 women…27 different kinds of cookies, candies, etc. We made 12 dozen of the treat of our choice and swapped goods when we got there which meant we left with 12 dozen different goodies! It was insane. I was in sugar heaven. I brought my famous Peanut Butter Balls (recipe tomorrow!) and had so much fun checking out and tasting everyone else’s homemade treats. I can’t wait to do it again next year! Here are a couple of photos of the bounty I brought home.
This is the platter…there was fudge, toffee, butterscotch cookies, chocolate cookies, buckeyes, Oreo stuffed brownies, ginger cookies, Nutter Butter Snowmen cookies, Oreo truffles, chocolate dipped candy cane coated pretzels, loaded oatmeal cookies and on and on it goes….
One of my favorites was the Chocolate Candy Cane Cheesecake. Soooo good.
And my absolute favorite was this biscotti. It had spices and orange flavor (at least I think it was orange..something like that), along with chocolate chips…it. was. amazing.
