Holiday Cookie Giveaway
There’s been an awful lot of cookies going on around here lately, so I think it’s only fair to offer up a giant batch of ‘em for a couple of lucky - and wonderful - readers. A holiday gift from me to you, if you will. And since I love you guys, I’ll be choosing 2 winners for the homemade cookie giveaway.
Don’t say I don’t love you.
You’ll get: Holiday cookies, made by yours truly, in a pretty box with ribbon - perfect for bringing to a holiday party, giving as a gift or for personal consumption with a giant glass of milk or tea (my personal favorite of the aforementioned options)!
You can choose two batches of cookies from the following options (2 of one kind, or 2 different kinds):
Mint (or non-mint) Chocolate Crinkles
Eggnog Snickerdoodles
Chocolate Dipped Shortbread
Almond Sweets
White Chocolate Cherry Chunkies

I love all cookies! But I'd have to say my favorite is Martha Stewart's Oatmeal Applesauce cookies. I used to make them all the time for Thanksgiving desert! And I'm also a sucker for the Pillsbury sugar cookies in the cookie dough roll!
There are soooo many that are my favorite that it is really hard to just pick one but to choose only one I will have to go w/ the old staple and say my mom's homemade chocolate chip cookies are pretty amazing...especially if they are fresh out of the oven:-)
My favorite cookie brings me back to childhood and a family member that isn't around anymore - Rockyroad Cookies. My mother's uncle would pick them up for us every time he would go to the super market - the C-Town in my neighborhood use to sell them but they have been discontinued :( Yet, I remember how they look and they chewy texture - so yummy!
My neighbor recently dropped off the best chocolate chips cookies ever! They are chunky, full of chocolcate chips and delicious. I also recently tried the chocolate chip cookes at Jacques Torres in NYC and they are world class - especially when warmed up!
I do love double stuffed oreos ;) but my favorite are chocolate chip cookies from the king arthur cookbook. They're so soft and the best chocolate chip cookie recipe I've ever tried :)
Hmmm....favorite cookie?! Probably a toss between classic chocolate chip and those oversized ones from the grocery store bakery with M&M's in them. YUM.
My favorite cookie would have to be a toss up between Aunt' Janet's Chocolate Chip with NO nuts or italian 7 layer rainbow cookies!
I love most cookies but my top three are oatmeal raisin, monster cookies & girl scout thin mints! YUM!
ooooh. Really anything my mom makes...but especially her famous chocolate chip cookies. She uses only good quality ingredients, and doesn't skimp on the chocolate.
Loving your blog Rachel! You are like the cookie fairy. :)
pumpkin cookies - the original recipe from the libby's pumpkin can.
I have to say, my sister's chocolate chip cookies. Small and delicious, with the nuts or without.
The only cookies I really eat are oreos, unless it's Christmas then I go CRAZY!! I think my favorite would have to beeee thumbprints because I'm a sucker for raspberry jelly wahhoooo
It's a tie between chocolate white-chocolate chip and white chocolate cranberry!
My mom's butter cookie jelly sandwiches or rainbow cookies!
I love love love an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie preferably warm and out of the oven and can't resist a super soft snickerdoodle. Homemade is a plus.
My favorite cookies are probably the blueberry walnut oatmeal cookies I make every winter, though they also work really well with craisins (and are slightly more festive that way).
All time fave are layered rainbow cookies. My favorite cookies to bake are candy cane cookies.
