Hi Everyone, out of appreciation for everyone’s great comments and emails I’m excited to have my very first Picky Palate Givaway! I’m no Oprah, but I’m giving away 3 separate prizes, here’s what you do…
Since, I have a terrible sweet tooth, I thought it’d be fun to hear what everyone else’s “sweetest” weakness is. Maybe I won’t feel so bad about mine! So, post a comment (one comment per person) with your favorite treat that you just can’t resist. Make sure your email is there so I can contact you if you are chosen as a winner.
Hurry, you’ve got until Monday the 23rd at midnight, then I’ll randomly pick 3 winners and post the outcome Tuesday morning. Can’t wait to hear about all your favorite indulgences!
I’ll go first……I can never resist a good Dark Dark Chocolate bar or the gooey pizza cookie with lots of vanilla bean ice cream. Good Luck Everyone!Prize #1
2 All Clad Oval Bakers
These are great little bakers. I love them for mac and cheese, roasting potatoes/veggis, you name it, they are awesome!
Prize #2
The Chocolate Deck by Lori Longbotham, 50 great looking picture/recipe cards of fabulous chocolate recipes
Prize 3
A church cookbook that I helped put together over a 2 year period that turned out great. I love all the family friendly recipes it has inside.
Thermador Taste of America 50th Anniversary Cookbook. I was lucky enough to have one of my recipes published in this gorgeous cookbook. It has some of the most beautiful photography I’ve seen. I hold this book near and dear. You’ll love it!
It all depends on my mood at the moment….right now I love the rainbow chip canned frosting on top of graham crackers…but I can never say no to gooey brownies! Yum!
I stumbled upon your blog over a month ago and I love it! My guilty pleasures are anything that involves milk chocolate. I really love Twix bars and Heath bars. Yum!

butter cake with either dark chocolate or coffee frosting.
Fun give away!! Mine is lemon bars or frozen key lime pie. Love the citrus treats!

I love all sweets. I am partial to well made dark chocolate. I loved baked apples with cinnamon (red hots too?)… I think breakfast and dessert are interchangeable.
My favorite ‘splurge’ treat is a pazookie… (is that the same as your gooey cookie with vanilla bean icecream???)!!

thanks
Anything with Chocolate and Carmel!!! Doesn’t matter what it is hehe deonemily @ gmail.com
My most guilty pleasure is cookie dough!! But not just any cookie dough I have THE BEST oatmeal cookie recipe and the dough is UNBELIEVABLE!! A very close 2nd is a nice cold Diet Coke!!
COOKIE DOUGH!!!!! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Gotta be plain old rice crispy treats but made with Albertsons mini marshmellows! Don’t know why, but those make or break them! My latest obsession is the Oreo Truffles from Bakerella! email- neckybewman@hotmail.com
I love this! I think before I even had teeth as a baby, I had a sweet tooth. Sad, I know! Anything with sugar I LOVE! Ice cream, smoothies, and slushies are probably my fav. Especially now in the hot hot sun. But if it’s sweet, I will eat it until I am sick 🙁 Talk about no control! Email is meiners@wirelessbeehive.com
Brownies or chocolate chip cookies fresh from the oven. They’re so warm and melty!
And these…YUM…

Homemade Oreo Cookies…yummy!
I also like to use a spice cake mix instead.

Mmmm… I love a butterfinger crisp bar.
My biggest sweet weakness is definitely brownies in ice cream. . .it all started at Cold Stone, and now Dreyers/Breyers/store brands are all putting brownies in ice cream! Make it stop!
Guilty Pleasure/Indulgence? Hands down, no hesitation: a 2 inch by 2inch by 1 inch fudge brownie. Not too warm and absolutely no crusts, nuts, or frosting. Oh, be still me heart…AND stomach! =) Count me in!
I can’t resist homemade chocolate chip cookies or “fresh” chocolate chip ice cream. (by fresh I mean a new, unopened carton–not that I eat the whole thing! ) I’ve tried several of your recipes and they’ve all been great!I drool over your peanut butter recipes but one of my kids has a peanut allergy so I can’t make any of them. So instead I try to inhale your great pictures!! cioelucy@yahoo.com
where to begin . . . I LOVE oatmeal cookie dough – salmonella and all. And mint chocolate chip ice cream, although I’m picky about the types of chocolate chips used (don’t like them to be waxy) and the ice cream shouldn’t be too minty. Oh, and peanut butter cookies with reeces cups in the middle. okay, I guess I’ll stop here.
Brownies with ice cream . . . Yuummm. Or chocolate chip ice cream. . . The mixture of chocolate with vanilla ice cream. Could live off the stuff.
i am completely in love with cookies, of all shapes and sizes and anything that relates to key lime pie is amazing…myhedwig@gmail (dot) com
I love anything that includes lots of chocolate, especially rich, decadent brownies.
Another De-Lurker – love reading your blog and have tried several of your recipes – yum!
My current favorite treat are Trader Joe’s chocolate covered Edemames – so addictive:)
Thanks!

I can never pass up a soft – only soft – cookie. I’m a fanatic for a soft baked cookie. Hard and crumbly, no thank you. Moist and soft – you know the kind – Mmmmmm. Boy all this talk about cookies…makes me want a tall glass of milk to go with them.
Anything with carmel. (That would be chocolates, brownies, Milk Duds, ice cream…you name it!) YUM!
Love your website!
I’m so excited to enter this contest! I have to tell you … my husband loves your recipes and he is a very tough cookie to crack! 🙂
My biggest weakness (I have a horrible sweet tooth as well) is chocolate peanut butter ice cream! So good! I need to see about making a copy cat recipe of this at home.
Thank you Jenny!
My lifelong favorite craving has only been cured at Baskin Robins. They have a flavor called Daquiri Ice. Yummy! It is tart, sweet, and refreshing all in one bite! I have yet to find a comparable flavor elsewhere. So, for 35 years now, I have treated to Baskin Robins. However, they did recently alter the recipe. 🙁 I don’t understand why they don’t just make a seperate flavor. So, my first love is not what it once was, but is still on my list!

I really can’t resist your pictures of all your sweets. It makes me want to make them all, but I hurry and look at another blog before the temptation gets any worse.
Thanks for sharing your talent and blog with us up here in Idaho. I heard of your blog from word of mouth. Good luck with all your contests you enter.

I found your blog about a month ago and just LOVE it!
My favorite guilty pleasure is Starbucks Mudslide Ice Cream. My hubby & I jokingly call it ‘the better than se* ice cream’
LynnesKitchen@gmail.com
I love anything chocolate or with sugar in it.

Great Idea – I love to try your recipes they are less scary somehow!! My favorite are homemade bon-bons – made with oreos (something else I can’t resist) cream cheese and chocolate!! Use mint oreos and they are even better!!
It’s gotta be something chocolate for me! I love that darn Levain Bakery Chocolate Chip Cookie, think about it often (just tasted it for the first time in April–so good–all the copy cats are good, but there’s still just something about the fresh Levain ones!) Also LOVE a good Molten Lava Cake and cookie dough ice cream is da bomb!

A Wendy’s Frosty…I just can’t get enough. Love your blog!

Jenny, I’m smiling from ear to ear because this is the funnest idea. Thanks! My sweet-tooth weakness is creamy homemade caramels. Oh my heck I made some for Christmas 2 years ago and practically gained double my body weight because I couldn’t keep my hands out of them, my intentions were to share with ALL my neighbors on gift plates but only a select few were able to taste them because there weren’t many left to share. SOOOOOO my weakness!!! 😀
Hi I hate to say this but my weakness is candy corn!! I “buy it for my grandchildren” because they like it,but half of the time they never get it. I also cannot resist choc chip cookies or pecan tassies.
pamshank@hotmail.com
I can not resist Ben and Jerry’s Chubby Hubby ice cream or See’s candy Scotch Kiss.
Mmmmmm… I could eat an entire pan of brownies with white chocolate chips. But I definitely have a special place in my heart for chocolate chip cookies. Who doesn’t? And of course any sort of brownie fudge ice cream is usually stocked in the freezer for a late night chocolate craving… like right now!
