National Cookie Exchange Day

National Cookie Exchange Day is on December 22nd in the United States.

Yes, this is another holiday related to cookies (or biscuits, in other countries). This time, however, it's a holiday celebrating giving them to others, rather than about a specific type of cookie, and the Christmas season is a season of gift giving. Cookies can be given to others, or exchanged with others; perhaps for different cookies, perhaps for something that isn't a cookie at all.

Cookies are frequently bought pre-made, but they are also one of the easiest dishes to bake. The most basic cookies only contain flour, sugar and a fat, but adding extra ingredients makes them more interesting. In some cases, they don't even need baking at all. So, top make that exchanged cookie mean more, why not make it a homemade one as well?
