Ragamuffin Cooking Club

December gathering

The 37th gathering of the Ragamuffin Cooking Club is hereby announced! It's time for our 3rd annual cookie swap!! It's been a favorite! (See last 2 years' pictures here and here.)

Theme: Cookie swap!

Date & Time: Saturday, December 13th, 6:30pm (you might like to have a light dinner beforehand, because this is going to be ALL COOKIES!)

Place: Chad & Karen's

The Rules: Some of you enjoy making holiday cookies for gifts or Christmas parties, so a cookie swap will be a great way to get new recipe ideas! If EVERYONE is able to come we will have 12-15 people, but most likely closer to 10-12. So everyone can try about a few of each person's cookie (to taste at the club gathering, and to bring home and ponder later), then each person should bring about two to three dozen cookies. Also, this time it will be very important to bring copies or web links of your recipe to share! And, to get your extra cookies home, be sure to bring ziploc bags or containers.

We need signups for the following:

  • 2-3 dozen cookies
  • 2-3 dozen cookies
  • 2-3 dozen cookies
  • 2-3 dozen cookies
  • 2-3 dozen cookies + drink (perhaps a holiday cider?)
  • 2-3 dozen cookies + drink (perhaps a holiday punch?)
    etc. etc. etc.

To prevent duplicates, please post what kind of cookie you will be making, and hopefully we'll have a nice variety. (In other words, we shouldn't end up with six different kinds of sugar cookies, but one would be fine!) We want EVERYONE to be able to bring cookies this time (one recipe per person, not per couple). Also, if one or two can volunteer to also bring drinks of some sort, that would be great.
