Holiday Giveaway: Win A $100 Gift Tower of Sweets from Cheryl&Co.
I tend to have more of a salt tooth than a sweet one, but I am helpless in the face of cookies. Just. Plain. Helpless. Especially cookies I encounter during the holidays, that time of year when all thoughts of calories fly out of my head and January seems like a fine time to start a healthy eating plan.
Straight out of my fantasies: this Plaid Tidings VIP Gift Tower. The very nice people at Cheryl&Co. have offered up two as giveaways, each worth $100. You get buttercream frosted cut-out cookies, assorted gourmet cookies, and holiday spritz cookies, plus stuff for everyone else in your family—cake slices, cinnamon pecans, chocolate clusters and pecan butterballs. Wowza.
To enter, tell me what your favorite kind of cookie is. Mine: oatmeal-raisin. (Runner-up: coconut macadamia nut.)
BONUS ENTRIES: After you leave your main comment, you can leave a separate comment for each of the following that you have done.
• Tweet about this giveaway and leave a comment with your Tweet time stamp (translation for Twitter newbies like me: click on the time below the Tweet, which shows you the URL). You can use this Tweet:

I'll pick two winners via randomizer.org, announce them here on December 17th and contact you by e-mail; Cheryl&Co. will mail out the towers.

Good luck and season's eatings, everyone!

The Cheryl&Co. frosted buttercream cookies have to be right near the top of my list - SOOOOOO yummy!!! Besides those, I love spritz or cut-out butter cookies.
ReplyDeleteMy FAVORITE cookies are just plain sugar cookies! Right out of the over, mm.. can't beat that. Not with a stick.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, especially if someone adds almonds or dried cherries. The more the merrier.
ReplyDeleteI'm more of a salt freak, too. I do like oatmeal raisin cookies, as well as sugar cookies. That tower looks so good!
ReplyDeleteChocolate chip!! My husband makes REALLY good ones with oatmeal in them. Ok, he also lets me have some of the dough on the beater too. Weird my sons aren't into that??? (Good so I still get it)
ReplyDeleteGingerbread men or sugar cookies...both with frosting!
ReplyDeleteThis would be nice...especially since I am behind on my baking!
My favorite cookie has to be chocolate chip w/walnuts! When my husband was deployed the second time, I would bake and eat a few "ready-to-bake" cookies every night. Unfortunately, the company stopped making that variety during this deployment, so I had to turn to Oreoss. It's just not the same!
ReplyDeleteWow! That is an amazing tower of goodness!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite cookie has to be chocolate chip cookies - still warm ones are the best! A close second: oatmeal raisin, definitely!
I subscribe to your blog through Google Reader.
ReplyDeleteHmmm cookies...i personaly don't think there is a cookie i DON'T like. But i would have to say my favorite is Chocolate Chip. But then again i do like Shortbread cookies too.
ReplyDeleteI found a recipe online one year for Cappuccino Crinkles, and I've made them every year since. They're wonderful if you like coffee and chocolate (and who doesn't??).
ReplyDeleteOh, hey - here they are:
http://www.bhg.com/recipe/cookies/cappuccino-crinkles/
Second runner up is those chocolate chip cookies where the cookie is chocolate and the chips are peanut butter. Nom nom nom!
My family has a special chocolate chip cookie recipe. I love them! Yum!
ReplyDeleteOh I follow you in google reader but have for over a year.
White Chocolate Chip Macadema Nut. I also follow you in my google reader.

I have two favorites -- Toll House Chocolate Chip w/ peacans and carrot cookies. The carrot cookies come from a recipe my mom found in Parade close to 50 years ago and I still have the ripped out pages.

ReplyDeleteI am a fan of to the max on facebook as Lisa Selmon Vance
ReplyDeleteMy favorite cookie is chocolate chip with the walnuts, right out of my momma's oven! That woman can cook! And yes, I can eat!
ReplyDeleteI don't need any more sweets this holiday season, though, I am way too fat as it is, and even with the exercise I have to do as part of my job, I'm still not expending more calories than I am taking in--so, if by the unlikely chance I win via the randomizer, just send the prize to the nearest homeless or battered woman's shelter of your choice! Goodness knows those poor folks could use a little sweetness in their sad lives at this time of year!
My favorite cookies are chocolate chip.

ReplyDeletemy favorite cookies are no bake (the oatmeal, PB and cocoa type)
YUM!! My favorite are Pioneer Woman's shortbread. I could live on those alone!!
ReplyDeleteI like chocolate chip with pecans, but there's really no such thing as a bad cookie to me! :)
ReplyDeletefavorite cookie...holiday oreos
ReplyDeleteMy favorite cookie is Cheryls iced cookies. I could eat me weight in them and believe me that is alot of cookies.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite would be the Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookie and Oatmeal Raisen cookies.
ReplyDeleteThe items here at Cheryl & Co., look so yummy. The brownies have my mouth watering.
Thanks so much and Happy Holidays.
Became a fan on Facebook (Margaret E. Smith)
ReplyDeleteI would love to come over and make some Oatmeal Raisen cookies. But I don't think mine would be as tasty as Cheryl & co's. lol
Thanks again for this great giveaway and Happy Holidays!
I am also a salt-a-holic. Most times I can leave sweets alone, cookies are my Achilles Heel. I love most any kind of cookie, but my favorite is a good old standby. I cannot resist chocolate chip cookies straight from the oven that are still gooey. mmmmm laprochaine@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteWarm chocolate chip cookies are the best ,
ReplyDeleteBut I wouldn't tell everyone I know,
It's hard enough to bake them now,
without the knocks on the door: "hello"!
Of course... someone happens to be in the neighborhood,
just walking their dog, but where did he go??!
Or just stopped by, and rang the bell,
and by the way, what is that smell?
The warm chocolate chip cookies are really a treasure,
and sharing with friends is also a pleasure!
