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:

Come over to my home and make me a nice batch of oatmeal-raisin cookies. Kid-ding!

This giveaway is open till Wednesday, December 16th at 11:59 EST. 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. Note, you must leave your e-mail if you do not have a Blogger account so I can contact you. Open to U.S. and Canadian residents.

Good luck and season's eatings, everyone!

UPDATE: This giveaway is now closed.

  1. 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.

  2. My FAVORITE cookies are just plain sugar cookies! Right out of the over, mm.. can't beat that. Not with a stick.

    ReplyDelete
  3. I LOVE chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, especially if someone adds almonds or dried cherries. The more the merrier.

    ReplyDelete
  4. I'm more of a salt freak, too. I do like oatmeal raisin cookies, as well as sugar cookies. That tower looks so good!

    ReplyDelete
  5. Chocolate 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)

    ReplyDelete
  6. Gingerbread men or sugar cookies...both with frosting!

    This would be nice...especially since I am behind on my baking!

    ReplyDelete
  7. 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!

    ReplyDelete
  8. Wow! That is an amazing tower of goodness!

    My favorite cookie has to be chocolate chip cookies - still warm ones are the best! A close second: oatmeal raisin, definitely!

  10. Hmmm 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.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I 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??).

    Oh, 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!

    ReplyDelete
  12. My family has a special chocolate chip cookie recipe. I love them! Yum!

  19. My favorite cookie is chocolate chip with the walnuts, right out of my momma's oven! That woman can cook! And yes, I can eat!

    I 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!

  144. Warm chocolate chip cookies are the best ,
    But 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!
