12 Days of Christmas! Day 11: Q + A and a Giveaway! {CLOSED}

Thanks for asking all of these questions guys! I filmed in the dark, Max is running around screaming, the quality is not great, but I’m uploading and sharing anyway. Total real life and it’s kind of embarrassing. It is also THIRTY SEVEN (omg) minutes long and the amount of times I paused the video and was horrified at my expression? Too many to count.
Just a note that tomorrow’s last video and (HUGE!!!) giveaway will be uploaded a bit later – around 3 or 4PM EST. Lacy and I are having our big baking day and I’m going to film some it! Be sure to check back for tomorrow’s giveaway because it’s absolutely incredible and gorgeous!

Yesterday’s giveaway winner for the Jo Malone treats is Ashley who said “I definitely wore the Lucky You perfume by Lucky Brand. Honestly, I was complimented on it ALL THE TIME, so I’m not even sure why I stopped wearing it?!”
Congrats Ashley! Please email me at howsweeteats (at) gmail (dot) com with your mailing address!

My favorite cookie is this pull-apart candy cane cookie where the pink and white cookie bits are wrapped together. My family always competes to see who can pull off one color with the other totally intact!
My family’s almond roll out sugar cookie with cream cheese frosting. I only make them at Christmas so it’s definitely a special trest.

Favorite cookie!? As if anyone could have just one. I love all of the seasonally flavored macarons, though I suppose those aren’t a traditional Christmas cookie.

Absolutely has to be the classic sugar cookie…
I make my mom’s sugar cookies every Christmas and my grown children love them. It brings back memories of when they helped grandma make the cookies. This year my cookies came out a little over done because my pans are not that good. I would love some new cookie sheets for baking my cookies.

My mom’s famous “twists” which are basically like sugar cookies but SO much better.
