I did 6 batches of butter cookies (each batch is 50 or so) I melt chocolate and make them sandwiches
3 batches of hershey kiss blossom(50 a batch)
2 batches of mint candy canes(50)
4 1/2 batches of rainbow (not sure on how many but it is ALOT)
1 batch of reindeer cookies (48)
9 batches of keifles (about 20 a batch)
2 batches of chocolate chip (50 a batch)

I make a HUGE platter for work
and I give it to alot of friends and family

I dont count out how many I give. I just make a platter where the cookie amount looks even on the platter

But I know my bro loves rainbow so i put more on his platter.

I am a crazy baker! I started a week and 1/2 ago! I baked every night up until last night!

Eventually when we have kids I am sure the baking will decrease a little and be a NORMAL amount LOL We shall see!
