Holiday cookie exchange parties are based on a simple idea: each party guest bakes enough cookies to share at the party and for others to take home.

Or try our bite-sized Fruitcake Cookies (page 10) - we promise this is one holiday fruitcake you won't have a problem getting rid of! And wrap individual slices of our Holiday Cherry Yule Logs (page 2) in colored plastic cellophane and tie with a ribbon for a a fun and festive treat.

I downloaded the free Christmas Cookie Recipes and made the Chocolate Snow Drop Cookies. My family devoured them before the cookie exchange... I made more, they ate them too. I made them a third time, (this time with Lemon creme cookies) and I froze them to hide them from my family... they are so easy, no cook and DELICIOUS!!!! They are officially a new family annual recipe!

I am not a fan on cakes and cookies so I miss a lot of the good things for the Holidays if you could come up with something that is nutrious for people that are diabetic and sugar is not a big portion of our mail, I think that you could have a winner and make a lot of people like myself very happy. Don't You. Looking for a miracle maker and could that be you. I see more in you than you do yourself just reading about you and the ingredients that you use to satisfied the people that trusts you for a good receipt?
