\"25<\/p>\n

It’s that time of year! I love cookie exchanges. I love seeing everyone’s creativity and picking up new recipes. I love eating food I didn’t have to cook. I love having gorgeous plates to give the neighbors.<\/p>\n

This year, I couldn’t decide what to make for the exchange at my church. I finally decided on some tried and true chocolate dipped shortbread (they’re #4 on the list, if you’re interested). The treats below are the ones I thought about doing. You’ll notice they’re not all cookies, but they all have two things in common. They’re pretty, and they taste great!<\/p>\n
