Unique Quick and Easy Cookie Swap Recipes {gluten-free, dairy-free, regular}

Cookie swaps and giving cookies as gifts rage this time of year. We have a cookie-baking marathon sometime in mid-December, so we can make at least 12 different types of cookies over an entire weekend. Then we split the cookies onto plates and give them as gifts to my clients, family, and friends. The kids bring them to school to give to other kids during their cookie swap time near the holidays and give them to teachers and classmates. We also get them to holiday parties. There are so many ways to use cookies as gifts. The cookie swap recipes below are my favorites I shared over the last few years.

I divided the recipes below into gluten-free and regular cookies to help you distinguish which one you want to make for your family.

These cookie swap recipes have butter in them but if you wish to make them dairy-free, try a butter alternative that works for baking. Visit our cookie swap recipes below to get inspired! Read about what alternative choices you can use for baking without butter by clicking here.

Gluten-Free Cookie recipes: 

GLUTEN FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP MACAROONS

If you haven't had macaroons, they are a gluten-intolerant person's best friend! They are a super easy cookie recipe to make and will be devoured by anyone who tries them. This recipe made 33 macaroons. Here is the recipe: GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP MACAROONS

DELICIOUS LACE COOKIE RECIPE

There are lots of variations to these lace cookies. The one that I made had oatmeal, a little flour, brown sugar, and butter/eggs. They turned out very crunchy and were easy to make. They made 82 cookies. It's excellent for those cookie plate gifts you may gift to others. Here is the recipe: Delicious Lace Cookie Recipe

GLUTEN AND DAIRY FREE CRANBERRY AND MACADAMIA NUT COOKIE RECIPE

This recipe was made with King Arthur Gluten Free Cookie Mix and was super easy to make. FYI - I was not paid for this cookie recipe post. I made it gluten-free and dairy-free using vegetable shortening. To give it more flavor, I added macadamia nuts and dried cranberries. As you can see from this post, I love cranberries. =) Here is the recipe: GLUTEN AND DAIRY FREE CRANBERRY AND MACADAMIA NUT COOKIE

How to Organize the Holiday Cookies Grocery List?

After doing several cookie recipes during the weekend, I decided to manage the grocery list more effectively. So, I created my holiday cookies grocery list I am sharing with you.

Check out our post to learn how to make several cookies in one weekend. It includes a free checklist! 

This grocery list allows you to create an ingredients list from 7 cookie recipes. Then, you can total them up and buy precisely how many items you need—no need to overbuy or have a lot of waste. Feel free to use it over and over again.

Grocery List For Holiday Cookies

Supplies you may need to organize your next cookie swap baking session

Some supplies are generally needed for baking, like baking sheets, mixers, silicone liners, and a bunch more in addition to the ingredients. Below are some things you may need for your cookie swap baking session. I found these on Amazon; if you click through and buy something, I will receive a small referral commission.

I hope these cookie swap recipes help you think outside the box when making cookies for your events. Please leave your favorite recipe below to join in the conversation.
