  1. Wow…I don’t think I’ve ever been the 1st comment..lol.
    My fav dessert would have to be Sour Cream Cheesecake. Have to have it every year.
    Thanks again for a wonderful giveaway!

  2. Mmmmm, bread pudding with whiskey sauce. My first trip to New Orleans has made it my favorite dessert for any and all occasions.

  3. I was already following your blog, but now I’m also stalking you on Facebook. Love your blog, keep the inspiration coming (lord knows I need it)! 😉 Thank you!

  13. My favorite Christmas dessert is probably this green jello mix my Grandma always makes at the holidays. It has lime jello, cream cheese, pears and whipped cream. Good stuff. Thanks for the giveaway!!

  17. Hmm. I’m one of those weirdos who actually likes fruitcake, plus I’m crazy about decorated sugar cookies. But there’s no displacing fudge as the #1 holiday dessert! (P.S. I follow you here as well as… well, I’ll tell you that in the second entry.)

  21. favorite dessert? That means I have to narrow it down to just one. Hmmmm. Impossible. So I’ll go with: cookies from a Christmas cookie exchange!

  27. I pretty much love anything sweet, but my favorite would have to be my mother’s Mincemeat Turnovers. They taste heavenly and remind me of home!

  28. I like you on FB too! Christmas fudge is always super yummy, how can I choose just one thing when I want to eat it all at once?

  29. my favorite is a recipe that has been passed down from generation to generation ~ we bake double chocolate brownies from scratch~ making a sandwich of two small brownies fill with Almond Buttercream Filling top each square with Chocolate Ganache and sprinkle with toasted almond slivers ~ Enjoy! Great giveaway ~ purchased two ~ and wish I had purchased more~ Love them

  32. My favorite Christmas dessert is my MIL’s Christmas Candy. It’s this yummy roll of peanut butter, powdered sugar and butter. It quickly became a favorite of mine once I tasted it and a couple years ago she actually taught me to make it!

    Other than that, I typically have a slice of mincemeat pie in memory of my Grandfather, who LOVED it. Its not my favorite, but it is a way I still get to share the holidays with him even though he is no longer with us.

  33. My favorite Christmas dessert would have to be…. decorated Christmas cookies. I know I could make them any time of the year, but there’s something special about making them and eating them this time of year. Great, now I have a sugar cookie craving! 😉

  36. My favorite Christmas dessert is my Mom’s derby pie. Since I live up north now she makes sure I have one in my freezer for Christmas each year.

  58. My favorite Christmas dessert is my family’s homeade sugar cookies! The recipe has been in my family for over 100 years!

  61. oohhh, that’s a tough question. i’m going to have to go with good ‘ol sugar cookies with icing (in the shape of some kind of Christmas-y thing, of course:) ) However, reading all these comments makes me realize I need to branch out some!! yummy!!!

  71. I’m already a follower! My favorite Christmas dessert is sugar cookies… holiday shapes of course with red and green sugar! Yum! Thanks for the give*away -love your bags!

  82. By far my favorite desert is a Norwegian Krumkaka! My husband and I make them now with my Gramma’s recipe my mom always used. They always bring back wonderful memories when we make them

  84. Hmmm… do The Pioneer Woman’s cinnamon rolls count as dessert? We make them for Christmas morning and my mouth starts watering on December 1st. Or today. 😉 Thanks for the opportunity for a great giveaway!

  103. Swedish shortbread cookies- called Smaskransas. They were a staple every Christmas at my great-grandmother’s house and every year my sisters and mom all get together and make dozens of them!

  107. I just found your blog via nester, and I am going to follow you! My fav Christmas dessert is the yummy cookies, especially frosted sugar cookies.

  111. My favorite dessert would be my grandmother’s carrot cake. She only makes it at Thanksgiving and Christmas and I always look forward to it!!

  112. Oh my – definitely cut-out cookies w/ icing, sugar sprinkles, and cinnamon imperial candies. The imperials get soft w/ the icing, and add such a yummy spice to the cookie.

  132. without a doubt, it’s my Aunt’s (via Paula Deen) Krispy Kreme donut bread pudding with rum sauce. Not strictly a Christmas dessert, but that’s when my aunt makes it. I’m hungry just thinking about it.

  135. Love the gorgeous bags & have to say that divinity is my fav Christmas dessert [and decorated cookies, too….]. Thank you for the great giveaway opportunity!!

  137. favor dessert, sugar cookies in the shape of trees or snowmen! ok maybe stars too!
    I love baking them as well as eating them with my children.
    I subscribe thru bloglines have been a subscriber for long time
    enjoy your blog!
    thanks
    Kathie

  142. favorite dessert would have to be all the yummy cookies that get passed around from house to house. They keep me going like little nuggets of goodness!

  157. I don’t think I have a favorite Christmas dessert. I love chocolate, so brownies are my favorite non-candy bar type dessert. I’m just weird like that.

  165. We love Christmas cutout and frosted sugar cookies!!! The tradition is that the cookies at the end of the decorating get the leftover frosting colors all mixed together…fun to see who gets these silly ones.

  169. Great giveaway! My favorite Christmas dessert is red velvet cake. I know it’s not very “Christmasy” but it’s red and fits in, right? 🙂

  177. i “like” you on fb! (and am a blog follower too of course! i subscribe via google reader, but joined via google friend connect too… just in case!)

  182. My favorite Holiday dessert is Hot Buttered Rum. OK it’s a drink but anything with that many calories should count as a dessert.

  183. Favorite, favorite Christmas dessert? Sugar Cookie Mousse Cake. Diiiiiiivine (just like the Christmas song)!!!!!!!

    The bags are b-e-a-u-tiful!

  190. Yay!!! What an exciting giveaway! I really really hope I win =)

    My favorite dessert for ANY holiday is my Nanny’s pound cake. It is pure Heaven!!!

    Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

  193. I’m a follower and my fave dessert for the holidays would be Oreo truffles. I only make them at the holidays, but they are so good. Thanks for the great giveaway.

  194. My homemade sugar cookies decorated with buttercream icing 🙂 I already bought the No. 4 Pennington Point bag for a friend and would love to have one myself!

  197. Hot chocolate, which I guess is kind of all winter long. But I always love eating toffee and those andes mint chocolates, I don’t know why but I only get those in December. 🙂

  207. Twitter follower & tweeting about it. Love this giveaway. I love a cute bag like most woman loves shoes. I especially adore your tip toes & tulips bag! Perfect for my baby girl. Thank you!

  208. And, my favorite Christmas dessert is old-fashioned figgy pudding. It takes forever to make but is just one of those desserts that I can’t do without on Christmas. Flavor wise, my favorite is Apple Crisp Pie a la mode.

  211. Well…one thing I’m crazy about is peppermint bark. My husband makes delish bark. Crushed candy canes mixed with melted white choc chips and spead on waxed paper. I could eat the whole slab! lol

  217. Dear Kellie: I am fan in FB : ) A fan in your blog : ) I love your posts…very inspirational at all times…
    Favorite Christmas dessert is “Fruit Cake” with “Eggnog”
    Have a great week and thanks again for your great blog!

  243. My favorite Christmas dessert has to be my Dad;s homemade chocolate pecan pie. He only makes it twice a year! 🙂

  245. I think I like the Maple Walnut Rounds cookies from the Williams Sonoma cookie cookbook. They’re classic, they always turn out, and they’re a crowd favorite!

  257. My favorite dessert is my Aunt’s recipe for butter cookies (I think some call them Spritz). They just always remind me of my childhood!

  263. My mom has always made these powdered sugar, butter cookies. They are delicious. I always remember making them with her. The traditional name is Mexican wedding cookies.

  282. A friend of mine makes the most amazing toffee – so thin and yummy. She won’t share the “secret” recipe with anyone but gives me a container full every year. This is ONE of my very favorite desserts!

  284. Potica!! My grandma always made this for me as a little girl and it makes me feel happy and loved.
    Thank you so much for the great giveaway!

  287. Favorite Christmas dessert . . . hmmm . . . I think it’s my Mom’s Chocolate Pudding Cake (also known as Parrish Pudding Cake).

    :o)

  288. And now I’m liking you on Facebook! I don’t do twitter, but I’ll go post a link to you on my blog. Very cool giveaway by the way.

  302. My grandmother makes a sour cherry pie. It is SOOOOOO good. We won’t be home for Christmas so I will be missing a peice.

  308. wow! … that’s the longest I’ve ever scrolled down to post a comment! … I LOVE your bags! … And I love TRIFLE … but I dont know if you guys have that? … it’s layers of sponge cake, ( sometimes soaked in brandy),mixed fruit, jelly and sweet , thick custard…in a glass bowl so you can see the layers.. yum!

  316. My favorite dessert would be my Mom’s fudge. I am the baker in the family but can’t seem to duplicate this one. However, I am happy to report my sister can! Mom passed away unexpectedly just over a year ago. I’m so thankful for our sweet memories in the kitchen.

  320. This is a fabulous giveaway. Would love to win. Would give them both away. Both my sister n laws love to read and I could fill them with books for them for Christmas 😉

    My favorite dessert is my aunts white chocolate raspberry cheesecake. Look forward to it every year

  321. I love some sweet potato pie with a glass of milk! Yummmmm Now don’t get me wrong I love several Christmas desserts but I had Sweet Potato pie last night so it’s on the brain. 🙂

  326. My favorite would have to be what I named the Christmas Gift Cake. Because we have it every year and my sister won’t allow me to show up without it! LOL The recipe is on my blog. It is VERY moist and tastes kind of like banana bread with fruit goodies.
