Food Bloggers L.A. Holiday Cookie Exchange 2012

A table filled with different types of desserts.

If you are looking for a last minute cookie recipe for your New Year’s celebration, you have come to the right place. Have you ever seen so many cookies in one place in your life? I have to admit, I haven’t and it was amazing to behold. This was the Food Bloggers Los Angeles Holiday Cookie Exchange 2012, with about 30 bloggers contributing upwards of 1500 cookies to enjoy and share.

The meeting was held at Erika’s home, of In Erika’s Kitchen, and the cookies were spread over her very large dining room table. It was a beautiful sight.

You can see additional photographs of the individual platters of cookies, with links to the recipes, taken by Dorothy at Shockingly Delicious. She did a fantastic job on this very large project. Astounding, in fact. Check it out.

These are the cookies I brought ~ Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies Dipped in Chocolate and Honey Roasted Peanuts ~ and the recipe can be found here.

We were asked to bring a savory dish, if we wanted to, as the event was held at lunch time. I brought these Spicy Korean BBQ Turkey Sliders with Ginger Sesame Slaw and the recipe is here. These sliders were a big hit and would be perfect for a New Year’s party.

There were so many cookies that they didn’t all fit on the table, so near-by chairs were drafted for the task. I took home a huge platter of cookies, and my family and friends were thrilled, believe me.

Happy New Year everyone! Here’s to us in 2013!
