Major Malfunction!

If you come upon a post and wonder why there's a weird black box with an exclamation mark in it, you may want to read this post to find out what has gone wrong. Still trying to figure out how to fix it all, without having to do each post manually. Until then, the black boxes remain. I thank you for your understanding. If you know someone that can help me, PLEASE send them my way!

All-Clad Baking Sheet {Review and Giveaway}

 **The giveaway is now over.  
Thank you to everyone who entered!!**

You see this?

This is one of my cookie sheets.

Gross, right?

This and its twin are old.  Very, very old.  Granted, my mom probably still has kitchen "stuff" from when her and my dad got married, but these days, things get old faster.  They're not as well made, ya know?

So when CSN Stores gave me the opportunity to review another one of their great products from one of their 200+ online stores, I jumped at it!

CSN Stores LLC is a fast-growing, privately-held company offering customers the best online shopping available for home and office goods. A $200 million company, CSN is made up of more than 200 online niche shops offering a huge selection of products ranging from barstools and bedroom sets to grills, greenhouses and gaming equipment. We have items for budget-minded shoppers, luxury seekers and everyone in between.

I decided that a baking sheet / cookie sheet, whatever you call it, would be the perfect thing.  I love to bake and obviously I was in desperate need of some new cookie sheets.  I got this All-Clad Baking Sheet in the 10"x14" size.  Shiney and purty, right?

You can never go wrong with a plain ole, standard chocolate chip cookie recipe, but I went in search of a recipe that wasn't found on the back of the chocolate chip bag, as good as that one is. I came up with this one from The Pioneer Woman's Tasty Kitchen website.  Turned out to be awesome.  So chewy and moist!  

This cookie sheet didn't fit as many cookies on it as my others, but I also didn't try to put more on because I didn't know how much the cookies were going to spread.

As you can see here, I don't cook anything directly on my old cookie sheets.  They are just not appealing any longer so I cover them with tin foil every time I use them.

I put both batches in the oven, on 375 degrees, for 11 minutes.



And this is the bottoms of them.  The cookie from the All-Clad sheet is on the left and the cookie from my old cookie sheet is on the right.

Maybe you like your cookies a little bit crispy and I do sometimes but I really enjoyed how chewy and non-crispy the bottoms turned out from using the All-Clad baking sheet.  I think All-Clad is my new friend!  Non-stick, shiney, purty, cooks evenly and my cookies came out perfectly.  Love.

Now, you didn't think I was going to leave you out of this, did you?  I know better than that!  

I wanted to do something fun to go along with this.  

I'm not one of those people that wears aprons but I know that a lot of YOU are, so how would you like to own THIS:
Adorable, right?  I thought so too and even though I've never worn an apron, I've been tempted to keep it for myself!   

So, you better hurry up and enter so I don't change my mind!! 

How To WIN:

Open to US & Canadian Residents

I have such a hard time getting new ones because I just expect the same thing to keep happening. I mean I've had mine for about 2 years and there NASTY too.. I just made two batches of cookies to send to Afghanistan and was thinking about how bad I needed new sheets!!

Thanks thanks thanks!
