NEW YORK, Nov 17, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
SNI | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Simply having a wonderful Christmastime, with... cookies galore! This
year FoodNetwork.com celebrates the return of its seasonal sensation, 12
Days of Cookies e-newsletter, with favorite recipes from its
all-star roster of hosts and chefs. Every day from November 30 through
December 12, a new, exclusive recipe for a Yuletide yummy will be
delivered via e-mail to users who subscribe at www.foodnetwork.com/12daysofcookies.
(That includes a bonus recipe the last day to complete the tidy baker's
dozen.)

Back by popular demand, Food Network's popular hosts and chefs -- from
Giada De Laurentiis to Sandra Lee and Ina Garten -- have created
original, delectable cookie recipes, each with printable steps to make
preparation even easier. The top food and cooking website will also
launch an entertaining new video series on throwing a can't-miss cookie
swap party, hosted by some of Food Network's most beloved stars.

This annual tradition grows more popular each year -- more than 1.5
million people have already signed up for this year's edition of 12

cookie parties from Christmases past.
