2. Cookie Pie Decorating Station

A decorating station is a fun way to get your guests involved in the cookie pie fun! Set up a table with an assortment of toppings and decorative elements that everyone can use to customise their cookie pie slices. Here’s what you’ll need:

- Whipped cream (classic and flavoured)

- Sprinkles (chocolate, rainbow, or themed colours)

- Chocolate chips (milk, dark, or white)

- Caramel and chocolate sauce

- Nuts (e.g., pecans, almonds, or hazelnuts)

- Fresh fruit (strawberries, raspberries, bananas)

This interactive activity adds an element of fun to the party while giving everyone the opportunity to create their own personalised treat!

3. Cookie Pie-Themed Drink Pairings

Pairing drinks with your cookie pies will elevate the flavours and make the event feel more like a complete experience. Here are some delightful options to consider:

Non-Alcoholic Drink Pairings:

- Iced Coffee or Milk: The classic cookie pairing. Choose a frothy iced latte or a simple glass of chilled milk for an indulgent treat.

- Vanilla Bean Milkshake: Sweet, creamy, and the perfect complement to any cookie pie.

- Sparkling Lemonade: For a refreshing contrast to the rich flavours of the cookie pie.

Cookie Pie-Flavoured Cocktails:

Why not take your cookie pie party up a notch with a cookie pie-flavoured cocktail? Here are some fun ideas that’ll have everyone talking:

- Chocolate Chip Cookie Martini: A sweet and indulgent drink made with vanilla vodka, chocolate liqueur, and a splash of cream. Rim the glass with crushed cookies for an extra touch!

- Peanut Butter Cup Old-Fashioned: A twist on the classic cocktail with peanut butter whiskey, chocolate bitters, and a dash of honey.

- Salted Caramel Cookie Pie Cocktail: Combine caramel vodka, cream, and a pinch of sea salt for a drink that mimics the flavours of a salted caramel cookie pie.

Serve these alongside your cookie pies for a fun and themed drink pairing experience!

4. Create a Cookie Pie Dessert Table

Make your party stand out with a beautifully presented cookie pie dessert table. This is the perfect way to showcase all your cookie pie creations and toppings in one spot. Here’s how to pull it off:

- Display Your Cookie Pies: Use tiered trays or cake stands to elevate the cookie pies for a stunning visual.

- Add Candles and Fairy Lights: Set the mood by incorporating candles or twinkling fairy lights to add a touch of magic to the setup.

- Themed Party Decor: For a bit of fun, consider a cookie-themed party with cookie-shaped cut-outs, cookie banners, or even cookie-shaped balloons!

Guests will love admiring the spread before diving into the indulgent treats.

5. Cookie Pie-Themed Party Favours

Send your guests home with a sweet reminder of the fun cookie pie party! Personalised cookie pies or cookie-themed treats in cute packaging can be a thoughtful way to thank them for coming. Ideas for party favours include:
