5 Tips to Hosting the Perfect Coffee and Cookie Swap

 

Do you find that with each busy Christmas season, it just gets harder and harder to spend time with your friends and family? I sure do! There’s an annual tradition that I have with my sister, nieces, and some of our cousins. We spend the evening out shopping and then eating an entire boat load of food at some yummy restaurant. It’s our thing, it’s just what we do every. single. year. I wanted to start another fun tradition this year – so we had our first annual Christmas Coffee and Cookie Swap party!

We had entirely too much fun. It was such a great time and it turned out so well, that I wanted to share my tips on hosting the perfect coffee and cookie swap party!

 

 

5 Tips to Hosting the Perfect Coffee and Cookie Party Swap! www.sweetpenniesfromheaven.com

1. Keep Invitations Super Simple

Create a list of people you want to invite…whether it’s for the girls at work, your sisters, friends, extended family, or your church group. Just whatever you do, make sure that you invite someone that has a super cute baby! Cute babies are a MUST HAVE at any coffee party and cookie swap! Create your own invitations, buy some online, or even search for free printables for cookie exchanges on Pinterest…you’ll find lots of great ideas. OR you can keep it as simple as I did – and create a group message on Facebook to invite everyone.

2. Simple Party Foods

Serving something simple to eat is a good idea. Yes, people are there for the coffee and cookies – but depending on the time of day you’re having your party…people may be hungry. Our party was in the evening, so I made a large pot of broccoli cheddar soup and served it with french bread. Chili would be a fun option too, or finger sandwiches and party appetizers. No worries about dessert since there will be a large variety of cookies making their appearance at your party!

3. Perfect Cuppa Coffee Bar

Nothing goes better with a cookie, than coffee! Have your coffee bar prepared by the time everyone is ready to devour the cookies. I used Folgers Perfect Measures coffee varieties for people to choose from and we made a couple of different pots. Everyone made their own perfect cup of coffee. Folgers Perfect Measures are little round tabs that makes making your coffee a breeze. No more scooping and measuring…just drop in a few tabs to make your favorite pot!

You can find the Folgers Perfect Measures in select cities, including Indianapolis and surrounding areas. Check for them at your local Kroger, Kmart, or Marsh! Make sure to grab this $1.50 off Folgers Perfect Measures coupon before you head to the store!!

For extra fun, I had prizes for those that made the best tasting coffee! Their prizes were containers of the new Folgers Perfect Measures coffee!!

4. Winner Winner, Cookie Dinner

A good idea is to place rows of each cookie on a large tray and then give each persons cookie a number. After everyone has sampled the cookies, have each guest anonymously “vote” for their favorite cookie by writing down the cookie number on a piece of paper and placing in a bowl or container. Whoever has the most votes is the Cookie Swap Winner!! Use something fun, like a cookie platter as a prize. TeAnna was the winner at our coffee and cookie swap with her chocolate covered peanut butter filled cookies. NOM!! Third cookie, over from the left in the photo.

Cassie and Mikki are super duperly posing for this “heartwarming” cookie exchange moment. It was so funny, I had to share it. Don’t let this photo fool you….these two are a RIOT!

 

5. Swap Cookies…and Don’t Forget the Selfie

After the party is over, let everyone take extra cookies home. I had some extra cookie platters left over that everyone could take their swapped cookies home on. Sooo….Many….Cookies! Another great idea is to ask your guests to have their own cookie recipes handy in case other guests want to swap recipes. Ohh, and before everyone goes home…make sure to take that RIDICULOUS group selfie, or “ussie” whatever you wanna call it! Such a fun way to capture the memory!

4 Seasonal Coffee Recipes + 6 Reasons You’ll Love the New Folgers Perfect Measures

November 12, 2015 by Jenni 883 Comments

This post brought to you by Folgers. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Sweet Pennies From Heaven.

4 simple seasonal coffee recipes for the coffee lovers out there! Maple frappe, pumpkin spice frappe, peppermint mocha frappe, and a Buckeye frozen coffee! www.sweetpenniesfromheaven.com

4 Simple Seasonal Coffee Recipes:

It’s mid November and I’m still in pumpkin spice heaven. However, I made a peppermint dessert the other day and now I’m all over the peppermint. We’ve had several really awesome seasonal coffee recipes on the blog, so I wanted to lump them together here so you could find them all in one spot, and enjoy them. These seasonal coffee recipes are SO easy to make…bada bing, bada boom! Just click the links below to go to that particular coffee recipe. Each of these recipes are in the photo above.

  • Peanut Butter and Chocolate (Buckeye) Frozen Coffee
  • Peppermint Mocha Frappe
  • Pumpkin Spice Frappe
  • Maple Frappe

 

 

New Folgers Perfect Measures Coffee Those recipes are super simple already, but now they’re even EASIER to make with Folgers Perfect Measures! Have you found these at your store yet? Oh. My. Goodness! I love when things make my life easier, especially in the mornings – and especially on mornings that I love my coffee more than my husband.

My husband…bless his heart. I soooo wanted to poke him in the eye the other morning. Long story, short. He makes our coffee each and every morning. THIS particular morning, he started the coffee but forgot to put the pot back into the coffee maker.

Yeah.

He goes out to start the car and let it warm up, and the river of coffee just ran and ran and rannnn. So – he comes in to find the dogs getting their caffeine fix off the kitchen floor. Ughh. The reason I wanted to poke him in the eye is because that coffee actually stained one of my freshly painted PRETTY WHITE cabinet doors. {Eye poke, eye poke, eye poke!!!}.

coffee-stain-on-cabinet

The husband has since been forgiven. I do love him more than coffee and cabinet doors anyway. Sigh. Anyhoo, let me tell you more about these Folgers Perfect Measures……..    

 

 

new-folgers-perfect-measures-coffee-3 Folgers made these awesome little pre-measured circle portions that you just drop into the filter of your automatic drip coffee maker! Right now, Folgers Perfect Measures are only available in limited markets – St. Louis, Kansas City, and Indianapolis. If you’re in St. Louis, you can find them at Schnucks & Sam’s Club. In Kansas City, you’ll find them at Target & CVS and in Indianapolis, you’ll find them at Kroger and Marsh — so keep an eye out!  

6 Reasons You’ll Love the New Folgers Perfect Measures:

 

1. Easy to Personalize Your Coffee Experience

If you’re like my husband and I, you may drink your coffee a little stronger or weaker than the other. My husband likes his VERY strong. I like for my coffee to put a little LESS hair on my chest. Ahem. With Folgers Perfect Measures, you can easily personalize your own coffee!

2. Makes Mornings Simple

Instead of fumbling around in the morning, trying to measure out your coffee…just plop the Folgers Perfect Measures portions into your filter and go. Run and shower, get dressed and coffee is ready to go! Hopefully you remember to put the coffee pot back into the coffee maker. {wink}

3. 5 Different Flavors to Choose From

There’s a flavor for everyone! They offer 100% Columbian, Breakfast Blend, Classic Roast, Classic Decaf, and Black Silk.

4. Consistent Coffee Every Time

More husband bashing here…  My husband is awful about not putting the coffee scoop back into the canister, so I have to find something else to scoop out the coffee. Most times, I never get it “just right” so my coffee is either too weak or too strong. With the Perfect Measures, you get it right…EVERY single time!

5. No Measuring – No Mess

No more dried coffee grounds all over the counter. Need I say more?

6. Same Great Folgers Taste

The Folgers Perfect Measures is still the same Folgers flavor you love! Nothing different about the taste/flavor! We drink the Breakfast Blend and the Black Silk varieties. They’re soooo good! If the new Folgers Perfect Measures are available in your neck of the woods, give them a try and see how simple they are to use. Makes mornings SO much easier, and less messier!

What’s your favorite way to enjoy a cup of coffee?
