2013 Holiday Cookie Swap Hop

It was hard to choose the type of cookie to make for the swap. I wanted something that would remind us of Disney, but be festive at the same time. Luckily, I found a treat that is the perfect combination of both. One of the best loved Disney cookies is the Magic Bar from The Wilderness Lodge. This ooey, gooey treat has everything in it. From sweet chocolate chips to crunchy nuts to flaky coconut, these bars have a little bit for everyone. A simple swap in chocolate chips turns these bars from a Disney favorite to a festive holiday treat.
