Sweet Giveaway: Win a Copy of Rosie's All-Butter Fresh Cream Sugar-Packed Baking Book

 Hey! You! Want to win something sweet for your sweetie this Valentine's Day?

Well, are you ever in luck: I've got a copy of Rosie's All-Butter Fresh Cream Sugar-Packed Baking Book to give away. As you remember, I recently featured the recipe for Chocolate Delirium from this book. 

Now, Valentine's Day is very special to bakery proprietress Judy Rosenberg--Valentine’s Day 1974 is the anniversary of the first cookies that Judy made that put her into the business. Le nom!

So what do you have to do to enter to win? 

It's easy. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post (comments are moderated, so don't panic if it doesn't show up right away!) with your response to the below question. But before I get to that, some important contest notes. CakeSpy Note: The giveaway will close on February 14, Valentine's Day, at 12pm PST. The randomly chosen winner will be contacted privately afterward. Because this prize is being donated and shipped by the publisher, they have requested that this giveaway be open to US entrants only. But I'd still love to hear your memories, foreign friends!

OK! That having been said, the question to answer to enter:

What is your favorite Valentine's Day dessert memory?

Update on Monday, February 20, 2012 by Cakespy

We have a winner!! "Sweet Eater", whose entry was chosen at random, says:

My favorite Valentine's dessert memory is when I woke up the morning of not expecting anything special to happen as I trudged to eat a normal breakfast of cereal. However, hidden behind the many boxes of cereal sitting at the table was my all-time favorite thing in the world; a Krispy Kreme glazed donut with chocolate icing and rainbow sprinkles. I couldn't help but cry out as I dug my tastebuds into the soft, gooiness and went on to eat the rest of the donuts in the fridge. Too bad those were expected to last all week for the rest of the family. ;D I love you, Mom.

Hope you enjoy the book, sweet stuff!

My favourite Valentine's Day dessert memory, would definitely have to be when me and all of my single sisters/friends, had a cosy movie night in! There was so much food that we each baked and brought, some like, cake pops, cakes, cookies, rocky road ice-cream, marshmallows, donuts, sodas, milkshakes, beverages - yum! :-)

My mom mad me and my sister chocolate fondue one year for a Valentine's Day dessert. It made the day super special for us :)

My favorite Valentine's memory is making goodies with my son when he was little. We've made lollipops, cupcakes, cookies---all sorts of things and it's always been wonderful. Now that he's a teen, he's not so interested in making the goodies, but he still LOVES to eat them!

My favorite memory is having my toddler help me make her first rise crispy bars. We cut them into hearts and spread melted white chocolate and sprinkles all over them. Then we devoured the scraps. We gave the finished heart treats to her father as a present. She was very proud of her achievement! I was so proud of her!

My boyfriend knows I love baking so he requested a brownies for Valentines Day. I wanted them to be special so I made him chewy fudge brownies with a layer of chocolate icing and topped it with chocolate chip cookes. I presented him his gift and since that day he requests the Suicide brownies (his name for them) every holiday.

My favorite valentine memory- I always took Little Debbie heart shaped brownies with red icing and heart sprinkles to share with my school friends. This cookbook looks fun- I would love to win.

It's a tie between the chocolate covered marshmellow heart my dad gave me when I was 7, or a night of popcorn and cherry-coke + vanilla vodka while watching "Shaun of the Dead." Both are pretty special memories.

Baking all sorts of things always makes great memories for me. Cheesecake with strawberry topping, red velvet cake and raspberry meringues are some of my most cherished memories of Valentine's Day treats.
