The 45th Pillsbury Bake-Off Contest (and a giveaway!)


Did you hear about the Pillsbury Bake-Off yet? Or do you remember past ones? Sue Compton won last time with her mini ice cream cookie cups and Carolyn Gurtz was in '08 with her double-delight peanut butter cookies. She got a million dollar grand prize....for peanut butter cookies. Gah! Those better be some amazing cookies, ya know? Hehe.
Anyway, to kick off this year's competition, Pillsbury sending out prize packs like above. I got one myself and the next is for you. Who wouldn't want some Pillsbury doughboy products for free? Hoo-hoo!
If you plan on entering a recipe into the bakeoff, you have until April 18th to perfect it, so you better get to cooking. But while you wait for the oven to preheat, here are some ways to win your own apron, pen, and book (and boy are there some drool-worthy recipes in there, yum).

If only I know how to bake, I would definitely join in. Even if I don't win, I would still enjoy that contest and I think that is the most important part of the contest.

That sounds like a cool giveaway and I have no clue what will come up this year but I think it will be a little more special than a cookie, Cupcakes have become big this year as well. Good luck to the contestants.

I'm guessing some sort of "healthy" entree, something lighter than usual.
