Cookie exchanges are so much fun. It’s a fantastic way to try out new cookie recipes and show off your baking skills. Spend a day baking and then divvy up the cookies in a decorative tin or box for gift-giving. Don’t forget to include the recipe! In return, you receive dozens of cookies to enjoy and your Christmas baking is complete.

Make sure to clear out some room in your freezer so you can store the cookies to last throughout the coming weeks.

      this is so great thanks for giving me some ideas

    13. I really don’t have a favorite to make as I have never really made specific Christmas cookies, I love to bake and this is the first Christmas since I received my Kitchenaid, so I will be making chocolate spritz cookies. Today actually…lol

      It’s been years since I participated in a cookie exhange. But, back in the day I would bake chocolate drop cookies. I still bake a batch for my grandkids.

    15. Viv Sluys says:

      I normally do soft ginger cookies for cookie exchanges. I want to try making shortbread this year. I missed the cookie exchange my friends did this year though because I didn’t feel like baking tonnes of one type. I like trying new recipes and baking up a variety of things.

    16. I have never participated in a Christmas Cookie Exchange, if I did I would make chocolate chip cookies, it’s a classic.

    17. Lynda Cook says:

      Shortbread is always a hit around here on the holidays!!
