Mom's Sinfully Sweet Giveaway from Swiss Colony

Disclosure:  Todays delicious post is sponsored by The Swiss Colony who provided a special treat to facilitate my review. As always all opinions are 100% my own.

Our final giveaway in our 2014 Mother's Day Gift Guide is something to get your taste buds watering.  Our sweet sponsor is The Swiss Colony.
I've never made it through a Mother's Day, whether I was the giver or the receiver, that I didn't enjoy something sweet.  I just can't image a Mother's Day without a little sugar in it. From people & in my food! hee-hee.  That's why I'm so pleased that Julie from Mamawj's Moment Away & I are able to offer you the chance to win a yummy treat from Swiss Colony for our grand finale.
One of my very favorite items from Swiss Colony are their Petits Fours.  I loved the one's that I reviewed back December.  You can read about that huge gift box here.  Let's just say it was delicious!!
Don't these look scrumptious?  I chose the Tropical Petits Fours box.  It was filled with Lemon Mist, Key Lime Pie and Coconut Petits Fours.
Each little cake is layered with fluffy butter cremes. Believe me you'll enjoy each cooling bite!  I wish I could share them with you now.  Oh' that's right I can, sort of.  You have the chance to enter and possibly win a box for yourself!
Look at what a pretty box they arrived in.  They were safely packaged and arrived in perfect condition.  I can't say enough about how delicious these are.  Something about this little cakes always makes me feel like a Princess, okay maybe a Queen at my age.  Even the name is so special...Petits Fours (I say with a smile).

Valentine Cookies or Anytime You Want to Share Your Heart

The biggest Heart day of the year is almost here, and I've baked up a little something to bring a smile to someone special's face. Who's in the mood for cookies?
Okay, so my hearts aren't perfect but they do say "Happy Valentines Day"!
Here's what you need.
*Tip 1: Wrap your dough in wax or parchment paper and sit in the fridge for about an hour to harden. Mine didn't get quite stiff enough.
Using your fingertip make little heart shaped wells in the cookies for your jam.
*Tip 2:  Since I have fat little fingers, I found that using a corn cob holder worked perfectly.
*Tip 3:  When filling with jam, don't overfill because the jam will run out.  Unless you like messy cookies like mine. I don't think your "little hearts" will care.  They'll just feel the love! :)
*Tip 4:  Parchment Paper is your best friend.  Use it.  It not only makes your cookies not stick to the sheet but it makes cleanup a breeze.
*Tip 5: I bought an Air Bake cookie sheet years ago.  Best cookie sheet ever and even though I own many, this is the only one I ever use to make cookies.  Usually biscuits and cinnamon rolls too. Here's a little info on it.  This is not a sponsored post but I love it so much I want to share why it's so great with you.
  • It is crafted of two heavyweight aluminum sheets that surround a layer of air which reduces the temperature of the metal coming in contact with the food.
  • This ensures that the food is heated evenly all around.
  • Air Bake® Ultra™ uses new Micro-Dome™ technology to decrease bake times by up to 15% over traditional insulated bakeware, providing overall enhanced baking performance including moister results, better browning and no burning.

Now it's time to share with your loved ones.

Do you do make anything special for your loved ones on Valentine's Day?
Are you itching for another quick Valentine project.  You can see my easy Valentine pillow tutorial HERE.

Hope you enjoy the cookies y'all...
When I said "My foot is slipping," your mercy and unfailing love, O Lord, supported me.
