~~Sweet Treats Exchange~~ CLOSED!!!

[mommaU4]

Out with the names, Out with the names!!!

Patience young grasshopper.

Cookies are ranked number one here. I bake them all the time....DH's work place loves me
Chocolate!!

LOL Same here. Cookies and my bread pudding are what DH's co-workers are always asking me to make.

Hmmm, maybe we should do a cookie exchange. Just cookies. And see how many new varieties we can find/try.

 

[Meriweather]

LOL......we never do home made goodies Saftey reasons.

Well, I always do new cookie recipes every week and have been doing so for the last 9 years. I have over 3500 recipes to try...and that is just on my computer recipe file....and then there are the cookbooks

, I went to the store hoping to buy 3-4 bags of Brussels, but they didn't have any . And, no Zingers either .

 

[Queenbillabong]

OK - sorry to sound stupid - but what is a Brussels or a Zinger???

I figured that. That's how it was in the kids school. Everything had to be store bought.

I was thinking store bought. Target had some really interesting ones I'd never heard of! I might have to try some of them.....

Not stupid at all.

Zingers are made by Dolly Madison and are little snack cakes: http://www.dollymadison.com/

And Brussels are Pepperidge Farm cookies:

What are everyones top three favorite snacks?

I have to agree with cookies, I like chocolate chip, not a big chocolate fan and I don't like peanut butter, but I love cookies with nuts and candy with nuts, and fudge with nuts and brownies with nuts, Oh my I think I am a little nuts! I like fruity stuff too, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries lemon bars, doesn't sound good I am fruity and a little nuts! I am so looking forward to this exchange! Not sure more for me or for the shopping!

For whoever gets me, if you happen to be an Eastcoaster - Tastykakes are very much missed OR if you happen to be Westcoaster - See's should still travel well.

Just a few things I forgot to put on my list.

Got it! Glad you could join us!

I'm excited too! I just have to resist getting into the stuff I've already bought.

OMG, one time, like a year ago, I was in an exchange and the person sent me some Tastykakes. I'd never heard of them, but they were soooooo good.

ETA: Their website says you can shop online, but the prices are kind of high. http://www.tastykake.com/

Tastykakes are yummy.

 

[Meriweather]

Sees....MY FAVORITE!! Yum!!! I am saving my See's chocolate bunny for sometime when I really need that chocolate fix.

Never had a Tastycake....and most likely can't now with my restrictive diet

OMG I live in tastykake land they aren't far from here, my favorite are the butterscotch krimpets and the creme filled coffee cakes, YUMMY! Ok I think I have gained 20 lbs just by reading this thread!

 

[Queenbillabong]

What are everyones top three favorite snacks?

Ooh - Chocolate (milk), brownies (with nuts - yummo!), lemon bars (I know - not chocolate, but it's good).

I just took a look at the Tastykakes website - boy, I'm glad we don't have those near me or I'd be in BIG trouble. They look GOOD!

 

[JLitfin]

tastykakes are our favorites as well. My family really enjoys the Kandy Kakes and butterscotch krimpets. When I purchase them they are gone in a couple of days. My guys are always getting into them.

My favorite snacks: chocolate, pepperidge farm cookies, and brownies with ice cream and chocolate on top.

LOL Me too! Although coffee and butterscotch would not tempt me much since I don't care for those flavors.

I was looking at the Tastykake website trying to remember what it was I'd had. Nothing looked familiar to me though.

The ones I got in a previous exchange were like a white or vanilla cake, with white topping, and a cream inside it. Those were good. Like the cupcakes but longer like a Zinger.

I bet! You've got three teenage boys! I can't imagine what you spend on groceries. My kids aren't even teens yet and they eat me out of house and home.

They aren't coffee flavored, they are called coffee cakes I guess you are supposed to eat them with coffee, I do not like coffee or anything coffee flavored either. They are just a simple cupcake with crumb topping and a little creme inside. Yummy!

OUCH! That is expensive. They don't have their shipping prices where I can see them without registering or placing an order. Guess I'll have to start saving up, because now that I know I can get them, I will have to.

A client from the West Coast once sent me a box of See's--that was wonderful!

I see Tastykakes in the stores around here. I've never eaten them! Maybe I need to try some.

As for me, I love anything chocolate, caramel or chocolate with caramel, like Rolos. Milky Ways are another favorite. I love Reese's peanut butter cups too. And plain old Hershey's kisses. Has anyone tried Pepperidge Farms chocolate chessmen? They are really good.

I love the idea of a cookie exchange! Oreos are my favorite store bought cookies.
