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!
I can’t resist a simple piece of dark chocolate. YUM!
Warm chocolate chip cookies straight from the oven ALWAYS call my name. Creme Brulee would be the fru-fru dessert that gets me.
I can not resisist a chocolate chip cookie. If I could eat only one food for the rest of my life, it would be chocolate chip cookies. The only thing better? Chocolate chip cookie DOUGH 🙂
Tollhouse chocolate chip cookies and Hersheys chocolate bars…also frozen milky ways!
I love fruit tarts from Whole Foods, or any kind of oatmeal cookies!
I can not resist anything chocolate. I love it all!
Thanks for a great giveaway!
Malted Moo Crunch ice cream from our local New England ice cream stand…I swear I could eat my weight in it. Yum!
Two big soft ginger cookies with cream cheese frosting in the middle – a ginger oreo! If it’s really hot, I have to have Ben & Jerry’s Pistachio Pistachio ice cream. Yum!
A simple chocolate cake with chocolate frosting (with a tall glass of milk), homemade chocolate chip cookies or brownies with vanilla ice cream and any dessert with custard. Love custard! 🙂

I’m a sucker for batter of any kind, brownie, cake, even cookie dough. I’ll “make” a sugary dessert, lick the bowl clean, and then give away the actual dessert. Mmmmm, I just love all that uncooked goodness!

Cupcakes are my favorite but I’m thinking your peanut butter cup cheesecake bars are my new weakness!
What a fun idea Jenny! Right now, it’s your banana peanut butter cookies. I can eat 10 of them and not even realize it!
My husband is on a business trip right now. I sent him a care package and threw a few of them in there for him. The day he received the package, I received a text from him saying “Send More Cookies”.
I really do love all the recipes I’ve tried of yours! You really have a talent for creating the perfect recipe! Thanks for sharing.
Oh, and I also LOVE homemade caramel corn, Dove milk chocolate, and Stephen’s Gourmet Candy Cane Hot Cocoa.

NUTELLA!! On bagels, on strawberries, you name it. My other necessary evil is smores!!You can even do them in your microwave, i have been eating way too much of these lately!!

Wow, are you kidding that I’m comment,or should I say ENTRY number 75! Can family members be eligible you little snitch! My guilty pleasure lately has been your dang peanut butter chocolate cream cheese oreo brownies…thanks alot!!
Ooh. Ben and Jerry’s Cherry Garcia Yogurt. YUM.
I have always ALWAYS had a weakness for hot fudge sundaes. Hot fudge and Whipped Cream is about the best combination in the world.
Now I have a SERIOUS addiction to ganache! (again, chocolate and cream…you really cannot go wrong). I drizzle it on German Pancakes, I frost brownies with it…I eat it out of a bowl! The possibilities are limitless!!
A nice fat slice of cheesecake when I really want to indulge, and when I want something sweet but a little lighter…hazelnut chocolate gelato!
Um, how about white chocolate popcorn with almonds. Soooo addicting!
Growing up my dad always took his mom (our grandma) and us out to eat at Hometown Buffet….yowser. The one thing I remember scarfing every single time was their chocolate cobbler. It made all those trips to that awful Buffet bearable.
So I have not had that chocolate cobbler since my Grandma passed. Then lo and behold, I was recipe searching and came across Bakeorbreak.com. A beautiful picture of chocolate cobbler staring RIGHT AT ME! I can’t wait to make it. Check out the website, it truly looks heavenly! and it can only surpass the buffet version, right!?

Warm brownies, anything with peanut butter and chocolate. Your blog is so great. My family has loved everything that I’ve tried from it.
Mmm! How much fun is this? I have been following your blog for about 3 weeks and you’ve inspired me to try new things. And it has been fun! My current (it changes you know)indulgence is to take a square of really dark chocolate and use that to scoop some peanut butter right out of the jar. Quick, easy, no dishes! Yummy. Thanks for the fun try. ddhamill@yahoo.com
Frozen junior mints or strawberry ice cream. Or basically any ice cream. YUM!
Mmmm, my biggest sweet weakness at the moment would have to be Ici ice cream, a local ice cream shop near where I live in Berkeley, CA. No matter how full I am from dinner, there’s always room. 🙂
nothing in life makes me happier than nutella and strawberries in a crepe. Yum.
I’m a subscriber to your blog, only just now “de-lurking” to comment. I have to say my favorite sweet treat is a Starbucks Grande Mocha Frappaccino. I honestly could have one everyday and not get tired of them. I am always a little sad when I finish one. Does that mean I’m addicted? :O) Great giveaways!! Thanks so much for offering them!

Umm thats hard I pretty much go for anything with sugar in it.
White Chocolate Moose Shiver with Heath from TCBY. Oh my gosh I could eat it everyday of the year and still never tire. I dream about it at night.
Thanks Jen!
My favorite treat is a buttery brown sugary hot apple crisp with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. Another fave is Tirimusu(spelling?) I love to eat it any time I can (spare a few thousand calories, that is).

Sublime Ice Cream Sandwiches from Trader Joe’s. They are THE BEST!!

As far as baked goods…I’m with you on the pizza cookie! But I also can’t resist chewy sweet tarts…I love them!!
fresh strawberry pie with whip cream. yum! nikkimatter@gmail.com
My favorite summer treat had been anything and everything Rhubarb!! We had a crisp on Father’s Day that was to die for.
2 days ago i ate a jar of fudge ice cream topper without ice cream! would have kept on if not for the apalled look on my hubby’s face!
