blackberry cake!
Blackberry pie is my all-time favorite! A la mode, of course.
Chocolate Pie. Made from a recipe that's been in my family for generations. Of course it has to have a home made crust too. Thanks for the give a way. I'd love this book! ♥♥♥
If I have to choose just one it will be Lemon Meringue Pie but if I have to choose between that, Blackberry Cobbler and Strawberry Shortcake I'm taking some of each!
HOT FUDGE BROWNIE SUPREME! some much goodness, it takes the place of any meal ;-)
Pumpkin Pie in the winter and Strawberry Shortcake in the summer.
Hi Bonnie!! I have to say to my favorite dessert is ice cream. Now, if I have to pick a flavor, that's not a hard one. I love coffee ice cream with chocolate chips in it. Mmmmm. Have too much fun it Portland! It's a great city!
Cherry Sopapilla Cheesecake, Layer #1- 1/2 can of refrigerated creasant rolls on bottom of 8x8 pan (pinch seams together to make a smooth square), Layer #2- 8 oz cream cheese mixed with slightly less than 1/4 c. sugar & 1/8 tsp vanilla, Layer #3- 1 can of pie filling (I like cherry), Layer #4- other 1/2 of the creasent rolls. Pour 1/2 stick of melted butter over top & sprinkle with couple tblsp. of sugar. 350 for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.yummmmmmmmmmmmm!
Hi Bonnie, one of the many things I admire about you is the individual path to the top you have chosen to hew, the often scoffed at idea that to be good stewards of what we have we should use it rather than collect and then store and ignore it.
Currently my favorite dessert is Brach's Robin Easter Eggs, malted milk balls with a thin hard coating.
I'm about 35 miles north of you today, waving as I heal from lung cancer surgery. Life is good.

I would love to win the goodie bag. My favorite dessert is bread pudding with praline sauce.

I love buttermilk pie! However, lemon meringue pie runs a close second! :)
There are so many yummy recipes out there for awesome homemade goodies! I thought of a dozen or more favorites before settling on Lemon Drizzle Cake.
I love buttermilk pie! However, lemon meringue pie runs a close second! :)
Wow! Great Bag of goodies! Favorite dessert? Would probably be pecan pie with a cup of coffee! Thanks for the opportunity for a great give-away!
can't beat my mom's cherry pie
My favorite dessert? Whatever is in front of me at the time! but I am partial to homemade ice cream, brwnies and chocolate syrup, sprinkled with peanuts and drizzled with melted marshmallow....YUM!
Absolute number one is homemade rhubarb pie, warm with vanilla ice cream.
Huckleberry pie is my very favorite!! I love Portland -- one of my favorite cities!
Cherry cheesecake!! I fess up and admit,...I could eat the whole thing if I was allowed lol!
I would have to say chocolate cake - or homemade apple pie. The book looks great!
My favorite dessert after my homemade apple pie is creme brulee.
I have to say I am not sure what my favorite dessert is these days- probably some square - I used to love cheesecake and ice cream but I am not eating dairy these days so probably mint or lemon squares-
What a fun goodie bag and fabulous fun for you. The block book looks lovely- your winner will love it. It sounds like Portland is a grand place.
Regards,
Anna
Tiramisu - oh, baby! I love Quiltmaker, and I love you Bonnie, and since I can't be at the Bock Party, I'd oh so love the 200 Block Book!
I love to make and eat desserts of all kinds, but my favorite is ice cream. So many great flavors!
Almost anything that includes peanut butter and chocolate!
Almost anything that includes peanut and chocolate!
When we eat out, I never order dessert. Oh, unless crime brûlée is on the menu - then I never say "no". My absolute favorite
Either pumpkin pie OR chocolate covered strawberries. I could eat both until I exploded.
It'd be nice to have a quilt retreat/block party/whatever closer to Jacksonville, FL! Then maybe I could afford to go to one...
What a sweet gift bag! Lucky you!
My fav dessert is bread pudding with rum sauce. But I had a slice of Italian Wedding Cake at a hole-in-the-wall restaurant in Galveston this weekend that knocked my socks off. I bet their recipe is an original! Was luscious!!!
Casino Mary :)
When I was growing up, desserts, candy, and pop were only served on rare occasions, such as birthdays. On my day, I always asked for strawberry pop and confetti angel food cake...and I got to lick the bowl!
This time of year, I'm starting to think Strawberry shortcake.
My favorite dessert is Tiramisu..Just found you, courtesy of SIL, love the Quilt Cam. Have fun in Portland.
Favorite dessert...anything sweet But if I had to choose, Peach Cobbler with a side of ice cream, or chocolate anything, especially cake. Thanks for the chance to win.

Congrats on having a block in the book!! And my favorite desert is homemade chocolate Angel food cake made by my 79 yr. old mother. It is the BEST!
Anything chocolate!
Hands down my favorite dessert is icecream. I think of it more as a snack than a dessert.. LOL
Thanks for a chance at the book.
Homemade apple crumb pie and vanilla ice cream. Enjoy your site very much.
Cheesecake, hands down is the best dessert.
Thanks for the chance to win the book. As a new quilter, I can use all the ideas I can get. Favorite desserts would be a toss up between chocolate lasagna and fresh rhubarb pie. Love them both.
Strawberry rhubarb pie...brings back lots of summer memories from my childhood...thanks for the giveaway...love the quilt cams..
What a goodie bag you received, almost like the one given out at the Oscars, ha ha. Hope you have a good time in Portland. My favorite dessert is tiramisu. Yum. Thanks for the chance to win.
Oh - the treat bag looks terrific! So lucky!
Dessert - would be ice cream cake from Dairy Queen! Love those as a birthday treat - however this time I decided to start a diet over birthday week = not a smart idea. So no desserts for me right now - not even birthday cake - so prize that's calorie free would sure hit the spot!
Just reading through the list above has my mouth watering and its only 7am. Can I just say that dessert is my favorite meal?
I love rhubarb dessert with a meringue top! My mom in minnesota makes the best. :)
Strawberry rhubarb pie...brings back lots of childhood memories of summer...thanks for the giveaway and for doing quilt cams...really enjoy them..
Homemade Peach Pie! Yummy!!
Oh! What fun! My favorite dessert is ice cream! That is why I look like a big ol' double scoop, nice and round!
Banana Pudding, especially my Mother in law's pudding!
looks like a great book. Cheesecake is a favorite. No, wait, tapioca pudding or is that because I just made it the other night.
My favorite dessert is peach pie made from my own homegrown peaches. And top that with a little homemade ice cream and it can't be beat!
A big gooey chocolate layer cake. The richer, the better!
I love lemon meringue pie. I ususally start at the top and work my way to the crust.....lol.
As I am not much of a cook, my favorite food is anything someone else has cooked. That pretty much goes for dessert as well.
What an awesome goodie bag. You sound like you are having loads of fun. My favorite dessert is Lemon Mereingue Pie. Not too sweet, with a bit of tartness!
chocolate ice cream...but it has to be a hot summer's afternoon!
looks like you're having fun at the Party.....my favorite desert is chocolate cake with ice cream
Ohhhh, yummy goodness. I love fresh strawberry shortcake topped with little scoop of fresh vanilla ice cream.
RED VELVET CAKE!!! Not with cream cheese icing but with the traditional Red Velvet cake icing that Eaton's iced their cakes with. It is buttery and creamy and to die for. When we were kids we would eat the cake part first and save the icing for last. Yummmm!! Enjoy your Block Party.
I have a sweet tooth so I usually love any dessert. My favorite is probably Texas cake; quick to make and chocolate, yun
My favorite is Pineapple Coconut cake. Thank you so much for the giveaway.

Creme Brulee - life can't get any better than that.

Hi Bonnie!
I love a good Key lime pie, oh, and carrot cake, too, hard to decide...
A friend of mine used to say he liked two kinds of pie... Hot pie and cold pie! I love pie, but my all time favorite I think is creme brûlée. Thanks for the opportunity, Bonnie. Safe travels.

Unfortunately, it's hard to limit it to one. But since summer is coming I'll go with Pink Lemonade Pie. It's easy, no-bake, and delicious!
Cheesecake. Plain, without anything on it. And to make it perfect, a cup of coffee.
I love cheesecake! Thanks for the give-away!
Cheesecake. Plain, without anything on it. And to make it perfect, a cup of coffee.
I still say...a big fat cannoli and the entire plate of tiramsu with a fork. Thanks!
hot fudge chocolate supreme--in fact, it is so filling, it is a meal in itself ;-)
*drooling* My favorite dessert? Warm chocolate chip cookies, soft and straight from the oven using Mrs.Fields' recipe with lots of butter. But without wheat, dairy or eggs, they're just baking soda, salt and sugar. So my current favorite that I can actually eat is almond milk ice cream with chopped pecans and maple syrup. Then when I run out of almond milk ice cream, I just have pecans and maple syrup, warm from the microwave. yum. Even without gluten, there are many choices.
My FAVORITE dessert is Heinen's Turtle Cheesecake. It is the BEST cheesecake EVER.
Keep up the good work Bonnie. You inspire me so much.
I love chocolate chip cookies or chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream!
Lemon Love Notes!! - AKA: Lemon Bars
Hot fudge Sunday or Cheesecake!
Right now my favorite dessert is cheesecake. I am low carbing it and can still eat this. Yeah!
my favorite dessert is Nanaimo bars
I like boston cream pie!
Easy Brownie Peanut Butter Pie. I just started making this and I love it! Although I don't know how anyone could not love chocolate and peanut butter, Enjoy you time in Oregon! I'm anxiously awaiting your next quilt cam! Thanks for all your sharing!!
My favorite dessert is homemade Apple Pie alamode!!
LOTS of choices, but apple pie, and I make the best! ;-)
MY Favorite dessert is homemade apple pie.
my favorite dessert is chocolate, in any form, but I prefer 60% cocao and mix it with half and half for different applications. chocolate!
Fresh strawberry shortcake which heralds the start of Spring and also my birthday (the 1st day of Spring) ... my mom always made homemade cake/biscuits with lusciously sweetened fresh strawberries and topped it off with homemade whipped cream ... if God invented anything more tasty He kept it for himself! LOL
My favorite dessert is peach cobbler. I miss having a peach tree in my back yard and making it fresh, but I do have 1 jar left of those Utah peaches.
lemon meringue pie
Sticky toffee pudding is my absolute favorite. Soooo good. Have fun in Portland!
I LOVE Red Velvet Cake, made by me. I was taught how to make this cake from scratch by my Grandmother when I was only 11 years old. And it isn't real red velvet cake unless it has Poor Man's Whipped Creme as frosting.
I am making a, from scratch, a German Choc cake today. Tomorrow is my birthday and since no one at my house can cook, I am treating myself to my favorite desset.
Barb
carvel ice cream
lemon meringue pie-- forgot to leave my email address !!

creme brulee, hands down. but!! Blue Bell ice cream will do in a pinch. lol
Oh Bonnie - can you tell by all the comments that we love dessert and the book!
I know its simple, but I love a well made apple pie. Just warmed a bit. When the pastry is flaky and the apples are tender and sweet - hint of cinnamon. Doesn't that sound good!
Enjoy your class and thanks for all the inspiration you give. I'm currently doing your spool blocks and a string quilt.
Hot fudge sundae.... one of many.
Carol_Berge@msn.com. :-)

Oh dear, just one? I suppose I would have to go with peach crumble and homemade vanilla ice cream.
I love cream puffs!!
I love Paula Deens' turtle trifle. mmmmmm

Debbie B
barnes2676@sbcglobal.net
Do I have to pick one? It's between cheesecake and brownies, but since I know how to make brownies, then it has to be cheesecake.
Well, today my fav. is pecan pie, 'cause I'm in Ga. where pecans grow! Tomorrow, my fav. might be Chocolate Eclair...I've got a hankering for that: layers of vanilla pudding and graham crackers topped with chocolate....
My favourite dessert is Nanaimo bars-A real Canadian treat
chocolete cake with rasberry filling and white chocolete frosting. Yum. I also love Creme Brulee. And chocolete chip cookies and anything chocolete or white chocolete!
Thanks for all you do and I love the fact that if we miss you on quilt cam live we can still watch later! Thanks for the great book.
I love banana pudding - you know the southern kind with vanilla wafers and cream and coconut. Yummm. My second is real authentic tiramisu.
Anything chocolate. Cake, ice cream... fudge, brownie. But I like apple pie too.. desserts are the best...
Pumpkin Cheesecake...yummy!!
My grandmothers Saskatoon Pie with hoemade ice cream!
Ok...not sure if the last comment got onto the blog so will repeat! Pecan pie is current favorite, since I am in Ga right now, where pecans grow. But hungry for Chocolate Eclair: layers of vanilla pudding and graham crackers topped with chocolate!
Just one? Dessert is my favorite part of any meal! German Chocolate Cake is the best but then I love flan, or a really good apple pie with vanilla ice cream. Apple Dumplings with sweet and sour sauce? creme brule? strawberry shortcake using home grown strawberries? I cannot pick just one! And now I am hungry!
Wilcoxsins Ice Cream /peppermint candy or coffee cream fudge
Mocha creme brulee, the best dessert ever :-)
Thanks for the chance!
Blackberry cobbler a la mode.
Yummy reading all those dessert choices, I have to add that mine is a frosted homemade spice cake. Now I'll have to go and bake...thanks for the chance to win the goodies and book!
I love beignets with a cappuccino and a brownie hot fudge sundae. Or sometimes the brownie batter blizzard from DQ when they have that bad boy. Also, a deliciously moist rum cake sounds mighty tasty right about now. It's so hard to choose...
Chocolate eclair dessert! Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. Would you like to come over for some? My door is always open! (Next time you are in the Chicago area, just let me know!)
Love to win things! My all time favorite dessert (which I allow myself once a year on my birthday) is a Chick-Fil-A fudge brownie accompanied by a small cup of Chick-Fil-A Ice Dream, which is about as close to homemade vanilla ice cream as I can find!
caroledoyle@windstream.net
Turtle cheesecake, yum! I love your Birthday Girl block. I kinda have a thing for pinwheels.
Anything custard: creme brulee, tapioca, flan . . .
Mexican Coffee cake
Banana Cake with Chocolate frosting!
Brownies loaded with nuts and a big tall glass of whole milk to accompany them!
My favorite dessert of all time is my grandmother's apple pie and her chocolate sheet cake. When I bake for myself I have a ginger spice cookie I love.
I don't think that my post from earlier showed up this is my first try at this.
Would have to be homemade Blackberry pie with a scoop or homemade vanilla Ice cream
