It’s the holiday season. Themed parties abound, and one of my favorites is the cookie swap party one of my friends has every year or so. The hardest aspect of getting ready for the party is deciding which cookie to take. If I’m not making my usual chocolate chip and M&M cookies or chocolate chip and mini Reese’s peanut butter cup cookies, I’m at loss. And rather than scouring the obvious sites such as  epicurious.com, marthastewart.com, or foodnetwork.com, I decided to ask some of my friends for their favorite easy cookie recipe. And I got not one, but two scrumptious recipes.
