Upgrade your favorite cookie recipe with any topping. Make just one type or a whole bunch of varieties. To add an additional layer of goodness to the cookie itself, add the ingredients of the topping into the cookie batter. I used five cookies. Three or four cookies will work nicely as well.

You will need:

• 10-oz flat water bottles
• iced coffee
• 4½x9-inch bottle labels
• large cookies with toppings
• cellophane bags
• 1x5-inch cookie labels
• 12x4.8x2-inch charcuterie bakery boxes
• newspaper parchment paper

Toppings I used:

• milk chocolate with halva pecans
• white and milk chocolate with smokey almonds
• dark chocolate with salty peanuts
• caramel cookie dip with toffee peanuts and white drizzle
• dark chocolate with crushed peppermint
• white milk chocolate with white Viennese crunch

Fill water bottles with iced coffee. Apply labels to bottles.

Wrap each cookie in a cellophane bag and apply label.

Arrange cookies in the box on top of newspaper parchment paper.

Place iced coffee on top of box.
