Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!! My dear friend Camilla Saulsbury, talented cookbook author and cooking contest queen 🙂 has offered to give 3 of her beautiful “Shortcut Cookies” cookbooks to Picky Palate readers! I have had the pleasure of meeting Camilla at numerous cooking competitions and I must say she is not only a talented cook and baker, but a wonderful friend too! This is just in time for your Valentine’s Day Baking too!
Here is some information on her book:
With over 745 recipes for cookies starting with packaged doughs, mixes, and cereals, Shortcut Cookies is one of Camilla’s best books yet. And given her penchant for perfection, you can be sure anything Camilla’s tested will be delicious enough for the school functions, bake sales and friends.
Some stand-outs from the book include an Italian Cheesecake Bar made with refrigerated sugar cookie dough, ricotta cheese, and traditional Italian flavorings of orange, golden raisin and hazelnuts; Lemon Curled Swirled Cheesecake Bars made with a packaged lemon cake mix base; Mango Cream Bars, with a crust of crushed gingersnaps and cream cheese & fresh lime topping and a recipe called “Dad’s Double Peanut Butter Frosted Brownies” made up of a brown sugar doctored brownie mix and topped with Camilla’s homemade peanut butter frosting. My favorite chapter is always “Brownies” and Camilla has a bunch including Turkish Coffee Brownies, Whiskey Brownies and Aztec brownies which I will review very soon.
Over on Camilla’s blog Shortcut Cookies, she’s taking recipes from the book and making them with all-natural and gluten free mixes. Be sure to check it out.

I love Oatmeal scotchies. I had some in the freezer and ate 4 of them the other night. Yum.
My favorite cookies are Grandma Lulu’s cookies…a chocolate cookie with a marshmallow pressed into it, heated, covered with a chocolate frosting. So good!
My grandma’s Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies! They are to die for and so easy!
I became a ‘foodie friend!’
Choc chip for sure!!!!!!!!!!!1
My all-time most favorite cookie would have to be a frosted sugar cookie! I just can’t resist them………
I love chocolate chip cookies any day! I recently made my favorite but added nuts and white choc as well they were the best.
My favorite is the Peanut Butter cookie.
Love all cookies, esp with choc chips & peanut butter.
The one cookie I get cravings for is the Snickerdoodle. I used to make them as a child and in 4-H, and baking them always takes me back in time. (Plus it’s just a fun word to say!)
My favorite cookie is a soft cream cheese cookie. My dear Mother and I found the recipe years ago and I make them ever since. She is gone now but it always reminds me of her.
.. and now I am a follower of your blog!!
I posted on my blog about this giveaway too. Thank you!

I love chocolate chip cookies!
My favorite cookie of all time is mor of a bar, but I love Oatmeal Carmelitas.
I love pumpkin cookies made with chocolate chips and pecans. I put a small amount of homemade cream cheese frosting on each cookie and eat!
My favorite cookie is my moms sugar cookies and her homeade frosting! I always look forward to Valentine’s day when she makes these cookies and adds our names to the heart shapes or little sentiments like “be mine” to the cookies! It reminds me of when I was little! The cookbook looks awesome and I would love to be in the drawing! Thanks!
jumbo triple chocolate chip cookies are my favorite. they take regular chocolate chip cookies to a whole new level.
My favorite cookie right now (it changes, of course!) is oatmeal peanut butter with peanut butter and milk chocolate chips. YUM!!!
That’s a beautiful cookbook. I’d love to win one!
I love White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookies!!
Ma all time childhood favourites are Russian cookies called ‘oreshki’ (which means little nuts), the are walnut shaped cookies filled with dulce de leche, chopped nuts, butter and honey. Fantastic!
I also only participate in the giveaway if you ship internationally (which would be really great!).
Tough decision but my favorite cookie would have to include peanut butter. Probably a chocolate and peanut butter chip cookie!
Double Stuff oreo!!
Every Christmas I make these sugar cookies with cream cheese in them…I can’t stop eating them each year! (just ask my skinny jeans that don’t fit!!!)

I follow your blog, yay! And love it!!
My favorite cookie of all time would be the snickerdoodle. It has to have a lot of cinnamon sugar on it though for me to really love it! It makes me sad when people go easy on the sugar. <3
I also joined your Foodie Friends!
All time favorite cookie? Definitely a hard question! I have to pick Oatmeal Raisin…I think 🙂
Cookies are my weakness. I love white chip macadamia nut!!!
I am a foodie friend on your side bar!
My favorite cookies are the lofthouse sugar cookies. I wish I knew how to make them, but I can’t. I have tried and they are just not the same. But my favorite on to make is just plain old chocolate chip cookies, sometimes I mix it up by adding whole wheat flour and ground oats. Yum, yum.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE homemade oreos!!!
Foodie friend 🙂
I love peanut butter cookies from an old fund raising nursing home cookbook. Simple and delish!
