Cake Poll: Favorite Christmas Cookies and a Huge Wilton Cookie Exchange Giveaway!

So, check it. Several weeks ago I received an email from Wilton asking if I'd like to check out their new book, Wilton Cookie Exchange--a collection of ideas and recipes for creative Christmas cookies, with plenty of cookie-exchange party ideas. Um, of course I would like to check it out. And to my surprise and delight, about a week later, I received a package--with not only the book, but a veritable truckload of sweet cookie swap schwag--from cookie cutters to decorating gel and sprinkles, to parchment paper and decorative boxes, and even invites--so that I could host my own cookie exchange party. Yes! And so I did. Here are just a few of the cookies people brought:

Pretty much, it was the awesomest holiday party ever, with dozens and dozens of beautiful cookies and great company.

And you know what? You too can experience this cookie nirvana. Wilton has very generously offered to donate the works--the cookie exchange book and comprehensive party package, including what by my estimation tops over $100 worth of cookie decorating and party products--to one lucky CakeSpy reader.

How do you enter yourself to win? It's totally easy. All you have to do is leave a comment saying what your favorite Christmas cookie is (while not necessary, please do feel free to link to a recipe!) in the comments section below. But enter soon: the Cake Poll will close at 12PM PST on Tuesday, December 8, and one winner will be chosen at random. US entrants only this time, please. Good luck!

I absolutely love making these coconut macaroons for the Holidays and any special occasion...it was the first impression my soon-to-be mother-in-law had of me! :D When they say a way to a man is through his stomach...they stop to soon: The best way to a man and his family is showing off baking skills...with much of mine learned through Cakespy! Thanks!http://www.marthastewart.com/recipe/coconut-macaroons-by-martha?backto=true

I love to make pistachio-cranberry biscotti because they have red and green and look so Christmasy! Plus, they are already hard, so they don't go bad if shipped. ;)

My favorite Christmas cookie is probably just good, old fashioned chocolate chip! It just reminds me of being a kid and leaving them out for Santa.

My mom makes the best lady locks - it's a buttery flaky dough filled with a sweet cream cheese frosting. Yum!

Childish energy lets nothing stand in its way. In their louis vuitton outlet tiny hands, they hold the future. The person upon whose capable shoulders rests the responsibility for their mbt sneakers education is that unsung hero, the teacher. He must be fair, honest, understanding, and intelligent. http://www.louisvuittonoutletsuk.co.uk/
