2 Irene a/k/a Twist of Faith November 11, 2011 at 8:56 am: How do you leave a comment. I would love to have this Kitchenaid 7-Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer. I only have 45% use of my hand and 70% in the other. This would be perfect for me to make my Anniversary Cake for Thanksgiving, but I cannot figure out how to leave a comment. Please advise me on how to leave a comment so I can be entered.

5 Lisa November 11, 2011 at 1:31 am

OH MY! I already have two kitchen aid stand mixers, and covet the 5 qt with the clear bowl. Yum. Now, this? Please, please, I’d love to win this.

And the first thing I would make is a nice batch of challah. Which is similar to brioche. But my recipe is vegan, no eggs. Yum!

Thanks for the chance to win.

WHOA! This is one gorges mixer! I’d probably make cookies first–just to break it in. ;-)

24 Carrie November 11, 2011 at 1:52 am

37 Nancy Benson November 11, 2011 at 2:00 am

“Punkin” Pie !

38 Kathryn Johnson November 11, 2011 at 2:00 am

Wow, that is a gorgeous mixer!

It’s hard to think about what I’d bake next, as I’m in the middle of baking (6 dozen cupcakes, 3 cheesecakes, 2 batches of brownies) for my sister’s wedding this weekend, but I know I will be doing some more major baking for the holidays. Maybe some rum cake.

39 Tracy Cusack November 11, 2011 at 2:02 am

Cupcakes with mustaches!

40 Meagan November 11, 2011 at 2:03 am

Hmmmmmm…..I would probably make my sour cream chocolate cake with peanut butter cream cheese frosting and chocolate peanut butter ganache. The peanut butter cream cheese frosting is HEAVENLY but it is a pain to make it with a hand mixer which is all I have right now. The second thing I would make would be homemade bread. I despise kneading bread by hand but I love eating it hot out of the oven! Yum!

41 Pam Naue November 11, 2011 at 2:03 am

Duh! Anything with chocolate, of course!

My great-grandson, who is 14, has Duchennes Muscular Dystrophy, and lives his life confined to a wheelchair. His favorite is Grandma’s Pumpkin Pie. This is the first thing I would make in my beautiful new mixer. And of course, following that I would start baking Christmas cookies for family and friends.

46 Laura November 11, 2011 at 2:07 am

First thing I would make is whooped cream. It’s the easiest but the most delicious..

47 Mary November 11, 2011 at 2:08 am

I would have to mix up a batch of my Mom’s homemade dinner rolls that is a recipe everyone in our family looks forward to, especially for Thanksgiving Dinner. Mom used to make these every year and all of us kids & grandkids could hardly wait for dinner, no so much for what main courses & sides were being served but instead for the rolls. Mom would never let us have any except for at dinner time back in the day. They are so yummy!!

48 Terri Smith November 11, 2011 at 2:09 am

64 Stephanie November 11, 2011 at 2:22 am

Pumpkin cheesecake. Or whole-wheat oatmeal chocolate chip and craisin cookies. yeah…there’s a lot of ingredients that you have to list in the title of that cookie.

65 Londra Fleming November 11, 2011 at 2:22 am

73 Leslie Kiley November 11, 2011 at 2:37 am

The first thing I would make would be my grandmothers Christmas Pine cookies! My family and I have been living overseas for the last (almost) 7 yrs and it’s been close to 8-9 yrs since I have been home for a Christmas with them! She makes these ol’ so delicious cookies and what I wouldn’t give to be able to make them for my family and in return, send her some of the cookies from the most awesomenist (is that even a word?!) kitchen appliance!!

Thank you!

92 Maarja November 11, 2011 at 3:02 am

It might be pretty early, but as i am already looking forward to Christmas (oh God, yes i’m the biggest fan of Christmas) I would definitely try all the winter holiday recipes, but first of all I would make chocolate and ginger self saucing pudding, yummi!

99 Pamela November 11, 2011 at 3:20 am

Wow! The question is what would I not make. I’ve been dreaming of a kitchen aide mixer now for several years and it just keeps jetting worse. I am afraid I would spend all day in the kitchen baking cookies, muffins, breads, homemade mash potatoes, shredding. Chicken, gotta have the ice cream attachment, meat grinder,etc with my 15 yr old daughter :).

Our traditional Overnight Cinnamon Rolls.
In 2009 I had heart and multiple organ failure that led to amputations or half my fingers and parts of both my feet. I used to make the Rolls for Christmas every year. Now life is just too hard. Winning this would be a godsend. Thank you.
