Fab Freebie: Save Room For Cake

***This giveaway is now closed. See who won below!***

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Our lucky winner this week is… N Shirley (whose favorite dessert “to both make and eat is Virginia Apple Pudding – even makes the whole house smell good!”) Sounds delicious. Congrats!

We’ve had a few questions about why all contests aren’t open to international readers, so here’s that info for you. We actually ask every single vendor who approaches us to do a giveaway if they’ll ship internationally and we remind them that the more folks are included, the more exciting it is for everyone. We LOVE you all and always want to open our giveaways to as many people as possible! It unfortunately comes down to each company’s policy (some folks are set up to deal with customs/shipping internationally while some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond the US – even if it’s just a book or a gift card). Sadly, we can’t change companies policies, and if we held out for international prizes and rejected everything else, we could no longer host weekly giveaways – which we’ve done for years. Hope that makes sense! We’ll continue to do our best to include as many of you guys as we can (we’re so glad this cookbook is open to Canadians too!).

With Thanksgiving just days away, think of this week’s giveaway as a warm up to all of the delicious food you’ll be stuffing your face with come Thursday. The mother-daughter team behind Philly’s Brown Betty Dessert Boutique is celebrating their new cookbook, The Brown Betty Cookbook, by giving away a copy along with $100 towards Terrain, whose wares appears on the cookbook’s pages. So if you’re like us and drool equally over amazing desserts and stylish kitchenware, you’re in luck. Seriously. I think I got a sugar high just by looking at some of the pictures.

    CAKE ME! If I had to choose one favorite, I think I’d go for warm, soft chocolate-chip cookies. The “pazookie” from BJ’s Brewhouse takes it to another level because they serve it in a warm cast iron skillet with ice cream melting on top…heavenly!

    I love Brown Betty! Their sweet potato and pound cake cupcakes are delicious :)

    However, warm chocolate chip cookies will always be my favorite!

    CAKE ME! My aunt makes Paula Deen’s red velvet cheesecake each Christmas. It requires about 8 boxes of cream cheese and is heavenly.

    CAKE ME! I’m a sucker for decadent dark chocolate brownies, but so help me I usually can’t even finish one. (KAF recipe… or Ghiradelli box mix.)

    CAKE ME!!! I love chocolate anything, but my all time fave is gingerbread men. My grandmother made them every Christmas and now I make them every Christmas. It just takes me back.

    No offense to cake but I prefer good old cookies…only homemade and right out of the oven…of course I will eat the room temperature. About 6 of them with a glass of milk would do me just fine!

    CAKE ME! My Mom’s “Sloppy Cake.” It’s a homemade pound cake with homemade frosting. It is the best thing ever and tastes like childhood birthday parties.
