Day #10 of my 12 Days of Christmas Crafts- baking

I have hosted a cookie/ cocktail exchange party for the last several years on the Friday before Christmas. I invite some of my favorite ladies into my home and we have a wonderful time talking, laughing, playing games, taking selfies, swapping cookies and recipes, and sharing cocktails. 
I am doing my last minute baking (the morning of) to get ready. Wow! its a lot of work to get ready for a holiday party. I baked the chocolate shortbread drops for the swap and plated some pumpkin chocolate chips with pretzels and some chocolate covered brownies for the party later on. I had to incorporate my family's favorite- chocolate chip with M&Ms into my baking today or I would have had some very disappointed people.
