Holiday Cookie Swap Tips + Free Printables

Thanksgiving is almost here, which means Christmas is right around the corner! One of the blogs I read regularly is A Charmed Wife and its resident blogger Lily Fink Harrington also blogs for BonAppetit.com.

She recently wrote a great post about How to Throw a Cookie Swap Party. I attended a cookie swap party last year and made a Nichols' family favorite which is completely un-unique (and frankly, not Christmas-y at all), but my family loves them and any time I make them they go fast.

They're called Peanut Butter Blossoms aka peanut butter cookies topped with a Hershey's kiss (our recipe came from a Sunset Magazine cookie cookbook).
 
Want to make your holiday party just a little bit cuter? Take advantage of this free Cookie Swap Party download from LivingLocurto.com. Since it isn't holiday themed, so you can use it year round. Want something uber-festive? I love this holiday party printable from Anders Ruff (on sale for $10). I'm planning to use it for my little holiday cocktail party for the ladies.
