Preparation:
Good Location with an oven
Plenty of table-top space for cookie making and cooling
A light lunch and beverages (MILK!) (dessert will be a couple of sample cookies)
Invite a group of 10 or so friends.
Ask them to bring their favorite cookie dough, or ingredients to make their favorite cookies, and a large container or tray to take home the cookies.
Have extra supplies on hand; plastic wrap, cookie sheets, cooling racks, baking needs, etc…
Party Time: When the guests arrive, everyone helps preparing dough onto trays. Make sure someone is in charge of the timer! As each type of cookie is baked and cooled, divide them up to each person’s tray, so that everyone gets a variety to take home for the holidays. Also make sure to have an extra tray for ‘Samples’!!
Extra: We always have a craft prepared to make too – something like an ornament, trinket, or holiday decoration.
