A holiday cookie party with a twistPosted Nov 5th 2007 12:05PM by Marisa McClellanFiled under: Dessert, Baking, On the BlogsChristmas displays are starting to appear in local stores and shopping centers. The orange-wrapped Halloween candy has been replaced with stuff swathed in red and green. Invitations for holiday parties are already starting to hit inboxes and mail boxes. Although it's only the beginning of November, it seems that the yuletide season is upon us. If you happen to be one of those folks who already has holiday baking on the brain, here's an idea that might tickle your fancy. Instead of having a traditional cookie swap this year, why not turn your cookie making skills in a charitable direction. Over at the Perfect Pantry Lydia suggests having a party where you decorate cookies and then donate them to a local agency that serves children and adults. She calls it Drop In & Decorate Cookies For Donation. She's been doing it for six years now and it's become so popular that King Arthur Flour has gotten in on the act by creating a cookie baking kit to get you started. Lydia has also created a guide for hosting, in case you're looking for a little extra guidance.
