Cookie Craziness

Do I love drinks with friends?.... YES

Do I love yummy appetizers?..... YES

Do I love cookies?.....YES

Than I should have known right away that a Holiday Cookie Exchange Party would be right up my alley!

Last Friday I was invited to attend a Holiday Cookie Exchange at the Baker house. You may ask what is a cookie exchange???

A cookie exchange gives you the chance to enjoy the treats of the holiday season without the hassle of baking them all. You invite your close friends over and ask them to each bring a half dozen cookies for each guest. The evening is spent enjoying beverages, appitizers, and some great company.
The goal: Everyone takes home an array of delicious desserts for a fraction of the effort. Now that's a sweet deal!

I spent much of last week preparing for the BIG event! The "cookie" I chose to bring were my delicious cake balls! I decided to make 3 different flavors... lemon dipped in white chocolate, red velvet dipped in white chocolate, and chocolate mint dipped in milk chocolate.

It took forever to roll and dip each cake ball... but in the end I was very happy with the result!

As we bagan to pick up our cookie containers I was in shock! There were SO many cookies and each container was adorable. I felt as if I was on a shopping spree. I walked by each area and grabbed each yummy treat. It was so FUN!!

Joe's eyes lit up as I arrived home! There were so many new treats to try. Many them are now on a try waiting to be shared with my family on Christmas Day!

It was so nice to see all the girls! I love "girl" time and the evening with filled with wonderful women. I spent much of the night smiling and laughing!

I cannot wait until next year. Thank you to Katie for being such a wonderful host and thank you to all the ladies for a fun holiday celebration!!
