I love cookie exchanges! My most requested cookie is the classic chocolate chip. This year I will be exchanging peanut butter filled chocolate cookies, and peppermint snowballs. I tried the cranberry bar recipe, it was stellar! I modified it a bit and added raspberries as well. Makes it a little bit sweeter but still with the signature tartness of cranberries.
I do go to a cookie exchange annually, but I do not know what I’m doing this year.

I have participated in a cookie exchange for my church before. There were so many cookies to try. They were all so delicious.
