Instead, I've decided to bake a smaller amount of goodies and offer them in a takeaway package to friends in the area who feel comfortable receiving them. I know there are those who may be wary of homemade cookies or anything from a non-commercial kitchen, temporarily or permanently, but for those whose comfort levels allow it, I am happy to wash my hands 1,000 times, make treats, and share what I've made.
For the record and for the edification (yes, this information will improve you educationally) of our takeaway "guests," I will share here this year's menu and photos of the cookies. That way, if you are sitting home with one of our Cookie Party bags, not sure what to eat first, you will know what you have without having to guess.
Note: for best results, we recommend you unpack your cookies from the bag once you are home and store them somewhere airtight if you aren’t going to eat them right away. They should also freeze well, and the flavors will mingle less if frozen.
The first bag is packed! |

Allergen/Vegan/G-F Note: As you probably know, chocolate chips and other ingredients may be processed in factories that also process peanuts/nuts and wheat. All items prepared were definitely prepared in a house that contained peanuts, walnuts, pecans, almonds, coconut, flour, animal products, etc. Cross-contamination is possible. For vegans, I cannot confirm how the sugars or other ingredients were initially processed. Everyone: eat at your own risk!
