CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — It wouldn't be the most wonderful time of year without some holiday treats, especially cookies.
On Wednesday, a group of local women showcased their best recipes at the 11th annual Ho-Ho-Ho Cookie Swap held at the Corpus Christi Holiday Inn Downtown Marina.
The annual Christmas cookie swap began with only four participants before expanding into a room filled with bakers presenting their finest creations, straight out of the oven.
"Its incredible because we come together as friends, new friends and old friends, as generations of families. We come together just to love and fellowship so its a great time," event organizer Terry Thompson.
20 people took part in Wednesday's event, competing to see who had the best cookies. The cookies were judged on most unique, presentation and overall best of the best.
The winner gets the bragging rights of being the "Cookie Queen" for the year.
