Holiday Stand Mixer Giveaway
**THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED**
Happy Monday, friends! Since Christmas is just a few weeks away, I wanted to do something a little different today!
I can’t tell you how much it means to much to me when you take the time to make a recipe from my site, email me, leave a comment, or take a picture of a recipe you’ve made and send it to me. Without you this blog wouldn’t be possible and I’m truly grateful for all of you!
So this week I’m giving away three KitchenAid stand mixers! This post isn’t sponsored, it’s just my way of saying THANK YOU!
Three lucky winners will receive a KitchenAid Artisan® Series 5 Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer and a signed copy of my new cookbook, Live Well Bake Cookies. Each winner can pick the stand mixer color of their choice up to a $350 US value (and that’s in stock on KitchenAid’s website).
Giveaway Rules
In order to be eligible to win the prize listed above, you must be a US or Canadian resident and 18 years or older. Only one entry per person. This giveaway will close Thursday, December 9th, 2021 at 11:59 pm CST. I will randomly select the winners and notify the winners via email on Friday, December 10th, 2021. Each winner will have 72 hours to respond with their shipping address or a new winner will be chosen.
How To Enter
To enter this giveaway all you have to do is leave a comment on this post telling me which recipe or baking how-to post you would like to see on the blog next year.
P.S. The mixers and cookbooks will be shipped out as quickly as possibly to the winners, but it’s possible they may not arrive before Christmas.

The winners of the giveaway are Donna Olson, Kristen Ferguson, and Lisa Robson.
Hello! I always enjoy reading your posts and everything looks delicious! One of my daughters is vegan so I’d love to see some vegan recipes. She does eat eggs so that helps when I’m baking for her. Thanks for your generosity in offering this giveaway.
I would love to see more tips for pie crust!
Can’t wait to keep trying more of your recipes! Just made your silk pie, and yum!!
Would love to see some simple syrups/flavors for coffee and other drinks!
Hi,
Love your recipe, the carrot cake is amazing. I would like to see more easy cookie recipes that can be prepared ahead of time.
How to get them soft and crunchy edges at the same time.
Thank you for the beautiful picture and recipes..

Hi!
I love seeing your posts of everything you make and trying them out myself. Definitely makes me want to get back into baking more often. I would love to see a variety of everyday ingredients made into treats. I find myself sticking into the cookie and cupcake categories. Plus living in Hawaii with lots of humidity makes everything more difficult.
Hi,
I love your blog and Instagram account!! I’m a baker and your recipes are always the ones I can trust when I’m baking for guests ? would love to see more posts on muffins and how to make them perfectly fluffy but moist at the same time like the bakeries. Would also love to know how to achieve that without sour cream or yogurt if possible. And of course to learn how to make them have that perfect muffin top look on top. I always make muffins and they always come out differently. Love your recipes and thanks again ?
I would like to see more British deserts
I would love to try chiffon cake but adding flavours to the cake. Example: black sesame, mango…. Etc
Red Velvet cheesecake and/ or cookies!
Danielle, I want to thank you for making me a better cookie baker. My wife loves soft and chewy cookies. The first one of yours I made were the Snicker Doodles. Then it was, chocolate chip, then peanut butter, both baked and unbaked. I have now made numerous varieties and I think your best secret is measuring the flour by spooning and leveling. Thanks for all the great tips and recipes.
Hello, fellow Arkansasan here! I would love to see more recipes with brown butter. I recently discovered brown butter and I’m obsessed with the flavor it adds to dishes!
Thank you for your generosity.
I love Dutch apple pies but can never it baked properly. Would love some tips.
Danielle, I’m so happy for you! Your cookie cookbook looks *amazing* and I have it on my Christmas wish list!! I don’t yet have a stand-up mixer, but I have a hand-held mixer, as well as a back-up hand mixer, just in case it conks out while I’m baking! As for future blog topics, I’m a huge cookie fan, so helping us bake soft cookies would be my request. I know there are lots of tips and tricks (chilling the dough, adding cornstarch, etcetera), but helping us however you can to bake soft cookies would be super appreciated. My cookie faves are snickerdoodles, lemon cookies (although I’m still perfecting those!), and anything with pumpkin. Also, a blog topic could be frosting cookies with icings other than royal frosting (which tends to dry hard).
I’d love to see a copycat recipe for Cheesecake factory’s Oreo cheesecake! Their cheesecake is my absolute favorite and I cannot find the perfect recipe, but have a feeling you could do the trick! Thank you for such amazing recipes!! Happy Holidays!!
Very kind of you to do this giveaway. I’d love to see a recipe for a German Chocolate Pie. My grandmother used to make one that was incredible, but I don’t have her recipe.
Happy Holidays to you!
I would love to see a Spanish Bar Cake recipe with icing. Thank you!

I would love to be able to make and decorate a sugar cookie like a pro! I always admire the beautiful sugar cookies that are seen in the photos. Often I find the recipe itself but not any real guidelines on how to decorate the cookie – is it called flooding?
Love your recipes and hope to see a tutorial on sugar cookie decorating some time in the future!
Thanks so much!
Hi,
I love baking and my family is always waiting for the next recipe.
I want to get recipes that I can make ahead and easy turn around for those days that I don have time to bake the day of the event/holiday.
Love your recipes and beautiful pictures. One of my favorite is the carrot cake.
How to make a chocolate jelly roll cake from scratch with a hazelnut flavored mouse center. Had a request for one would love to see your version.
I love seeing your posts on my email. I have used so many of your recipes and enjoy the wonderful tips you give as well. I love to bake (and cook as well). Your recipes are always a huge success with my family and friends. Thank you so much!
As for posts for next year, I may have missed a previous post, but would welcome tips and a recipe for meringue for pies. I live in a humid area and my meringues always weep. So frustrating!
Thank you again and Merry Christmas!
Sincerely,
Sandi
I would love to see more cookie recipes, that’s why I’m here! If possible, some pies would be great too if you want! I would be overjoyed to win the recipe book and the mixer. I’ve always entered giveaways (but haven’t won) and have never seen something like this! Thank you for this wonderful chance to enter! I hope you have a great Christmas and a great New Year! 🙂
I need to learn comparisons between different baking flours. Like Do’s & Don’ts when it comes to when to use individual flours, measurements, textures,etc. I recently learned that I am allergic to wheat, soy, and caisen. It makes me so sad that I feel like I cannot bake my usual anymore.
More recipes regarding pie baking. Thank you.
Hi. I love your recipes. I am interested I recipes for one or two persons. I love to cook and don’t mind “doing from scratch”. Thank and keep up the good work.

I would like to see more frosting of triple layer cakes please.
Your blog has elevated my baking skills and I recommend your recipes to EVERYONE!
I’m starting keto with the new year so I guess I’m gonna need some new recipes!
Keto EVERYTHING! Lol
Your website is one that often visit to find new recipes to try or bring to the hospital department’s potluck and would love to see a homemade caramel (individually wrapped chewy candy) or pecan praline recipe. Since I live in Colorado, it would be helpful to include some high altitude baking as well. Thanks and Happy Holidays!
Love seeing all of your recipes- keeps me inspired and much more satisfying than all of the junk in the media.
How about a carrot cake recipe with buttercream frosting.
Hello Danielle,
I love your blog. It is my favorite blog when I need a new recipe, and I always look forward to reading your email because I know it will be a great recipe. I would love to get better at making pie crust, so anything you could put on the blog relating to pie crust and how to ensure success would be very helpful for me. I would also love to have a Christmas cookbook from you or maybe a section of the blog dedicated to Christmas baking with a little of everything from cookies to bread/cakes, etc.
I hope you are having a great holiday season.
Hi Danielle,

I enjoy your blogs. I would like to know more about the process of laminating butter for pastries. Thank you very much! Happy Holidays to you and your family.
I would love to see a chart of what unbaked cookie doughs can be frozen, which baked cookies can me frozen, then lastly what decorated cookies can be frozen along with best way to prepare cookies for freezing and best ways to thaw them out.
