Butterscotch Fingers, Chocolate Crinkles, Gingerbread Cut-Outs, Peppermint Meringues: all these Christmas cookies sound delectable. But nobody can bake dozens of recipes at the same time. The
solution? A swap! All across America, families, neighbors, community and church groups gather together at Christmas cookie swaps. Each participant whips up a large batch of his or her
favorite recipe and brings the cookies to share. Everyone fills a plate or tin with samplings of all the tasty treats; the more people, the merrier—and the more kinds of cookies to try. It’s
a fun way to enjoy a variety of Christmas tastes and traditions without doing all the work yourself—and to celebrate with those you love.
Good Housekeeping helps home bakers enter into the joy, camaraderie, and pure deliciousness of this tradition with a new collection of 60 favorite Christmas cookie recipes from around
the world—each configured to make batches of at least eight dozen cookies. Choose from holiday classics and contemporary twists; they’re easy to make with everyday ingredients. And each
recipe has been triple-tested for success in the famed Good Housekeeping Test Kitchen, so you can bake with confidence. For extra help, there are also great tips on techniques and
shortcuts as well as fun ideas for throwing the best cookie swap ever. Finally, as a special bonus, the book features removable blank recipe cards in the back—so you can pass along the
recipe.
