KitchenAid Stand Mixer GIVEAWAY!

In 2010, I blogged about how my dad thought getting a KitchenAid Stand Mixer basically equated to cookies, cakes and all other sorts of calorie bombs.  But you can use a KitchenAid Stand Mixer for good, especially once you start using some of their fabulous attachments (such as the roto slicer that can shred a carrot in seconds)!

This Hippocrates quote "Let food be thy medicine; thy medicine be food" condensed the wisdom of the ages, that, if anything, working hard to make food from scratch would be the anecdote to years of eating processed, pre-packaged food.  If I wanted a cookie, I had to work for the cookie.  With the stand mixer, you are able to work smart!

So I bought my own KitchenAid Stand Mixer.  While I have made a few calorie bombs, I have also made some very healthy recipes using my KitchenAid Stand Mixer.  Standing in my kitchen listening to the whirrrrrr of the motor also reminds me of my grandmother and my mother, who both used their KitchenAid Stand Mixers to teach me the joy of cooking (sadly theirs died after 40+ years of use).

If you were at FitBloggin12, you know that I won a KitchenAid Architect 5 Quart Stand Mixer! But as I already had one I asked the kind folks that ran the #Good2Know reception if they would send the stand mixer to a raffle winner, and they said YES (in the USA or CANADA)!  (thanks to Alejandra Ramos for the inspiration of paying it forward!)

I also want to thank Unilever for providing all of the wonderful snacks at the Fitbloggin12 Reception (mmmmmhmmm mashed potatoes!) and The Zocalo Group for coordinating the mailing of the prize!

I'm the oldest of 4 kids, and the KitchenAid mixer was ALWAYS out on the counter. From cookies to cupcakes, coleslaw to sauerkraut, homemade play-doh to green slime... we did it all in that mixer :) Great giveaway!

I have always, always wanted a kitchenaid mixer. :)

i have always wanted one too... i always remember my dad busting out our old one to make cookies :)

My mom ALWAYS let me help make cookies with her using her kitchenaid mixer... I don't have any kids (yet!) but would love to have my niece and little cousins make cookies with me using a kitchenaid!

My grandmother always used Kitchenaid and they lasted forever. I want to make some healthy bread recipes with this.

My Gran always used a KitchenAid mixer and I've always wanted one. She had tons of attachments and used it for everything from making batters and doughs to grinding meats for homemade sausage.

My favorite holiday recipe I would love to make using this mixer AND Unilever spread is my Sweet Potato Souffle.

My mom has always had a kitchen aid mixer. When I was a kid I remember using it from everything from homemade meatballs, to cookies, to ginger bread house glue. I think the my favorite memory would have to be all 4 kids making gingerbread houses :)

Reply

My mom used to make cookies and I remember eating the cookie dough out of the bowl when she wasn't looking.

Oh mah word I have always wanted a kitchen aid mixer. I dream of using the meat grinder attachment (I hunt deer and we go in on sides of grass fed organic meat) as well as the occasional calorie bombs with the kids.

Something about the mixer screams comfort and tradition, you know?

My other comment said it didn't go thru due to error. :( Sorry if this is a duplicate.
I was fortunate enough to receive a very old stand mixer from a friend of my mom, several years ago. It still works and I've made many yummy healthy, and not-so-healthy, treats over the years. I even made a few friends' wedding cakes with it. If I were to win this one (*fingers crossed*) I would definitely pass mine on to another friend who wants one, but doesn't have the means to get it and hope they get as much joy out of it as I have.

Reply

So great to meet you at Fitbloggin, my dear! My friend Steve has this fabulous mixer and I've been coveting it ever since watching him make a Hummingbird cake recipe with it. In fact, that is one of my favorite memories - helping him prepare for a big housewarming party menu that included the cake, and licking the bowl afterwards!

Reply

Oh my goodness how awesome is that!? I've never lived in a house that had one, but I've always always wanted one.

Reply

My favorite holiday recipe to make with my stand mixer is green tea sugar cookies. I mix the dough, then roll it out and cut shapes out to decorate. The green dough works for many holidays from Christmas to Halloween or even just because it's yummy. :)

Reply

My favorite recipe I would love to make with a new mixer would be warm, gooey, chocolate chip cookies. As a newylwed I would love to impress my hubby by making great food and and baked goodies!

My favorite holiday recipe that would be easier with a stand mixer, I think are those iced pumpkin cookies. They have become a favorite and everyone loves them. I end up making batches all season long.

I actually first used a KitchenAid mixer with my husband, back before we got married. It cemented our love for cooking together.

I've always wanted one of these but could never afford one. I used to eye the ones my friends had jealously. MMmm, Christmas would be so much easier with a mixer! And I could make bread. And pizza dough! Ooooh! The possibilities are endless!

I would love to win one of these...I have wanted one forever but they are just so darn expensive. Thank you for this chance to win.

Kitchen Aid is awesome I have my Mom's old one, not as fancy as this one but they are so versatile. I love to bake (and give it away). I've made some awesome cheese cakes - the best one with Baileys

Reply

Every time I find a new recipe or I'm stirring up a batch of cookies in the kitchen BY HAND, I announce loudly that it would be so much EASIER if only I had a KitchenAid Stand Mixer. No one seems to be taking the hint, so hopefully I can win one instead. :)

Reply

Fabulous Giveaway!! I'd love to bake with my girls. Little holiday cookies are our favorite thing to bake!! This would make the "homemade" cookies EPIC!!

Reply

I mash and mix the potatoes by hand - very grueling! I'm betting a KitchenAid Stand Mixer would make my life MUCH easier this holiday season!

Reply

I used to always go to a friend's house as a kid and make cookies with her KitchenAid mixer, but we would always end up making a giant person-shaped cookie that took at least an hour to bake! Followed by devouring :)

I love baking cookies for the holidays and I could definitely use the KitchenAid mixer and my favorite Unilever spread, Brummel and Brown, to help me out!

Lots of memories baking with my mom and her Kitchenaid mixer. She has my great grandma's mixer and it;s still going like it's new.

Reply

I like baking bread during the holidays so a kitchinaid mixer would defiently help. My arms get so tired kneading the dough.

Reply

This makes me swoon just a little! We finally have enough space to justify this baby and rumor has it, I'm hosting Thanksgiving this year so this would totally come in handy :)

Reply

It is so kind of you to "pay it forward" by raffling off the Kitchen Aid mixer. One of my favorite memories is making a cake with my daughter when she was in grade school, having her help me put the ingredients in the Kitchen Aid mixer, flour flying everywhere! Now she is all grown up and wants her own Kitchen Aid mixer for when she cooks for her boyfriend.

Reply

I would absolutely love to win a Kitchen-Aid. I've been doing baking projects with my four year old and talking a lot with him about health and nutrition and to be honest, I've been coveting one for years, but haven't ever had the spare cash.

Reply

What a great idea to give it away instead!

I make multiple types of cookies and scones as gifts for the holidays, all mixed by hand. A Kitchen-Aid stand mixer would save me so much time and perhaps a bit of my sanity!

Reply

I would LOVE to win one of these. A dear friend of mine got married and a bunch of us put our pennies together to buy her one - it was easily her favorite gift and it's so exciting that she could easily use it for decades to come. She has repaid us in lots of delicious treats since then and I'd love to have one too!

I know there are tons of people who would love to win a mixer like this, myself included. As I continue on my weightloss journey homemade bread, gluten free, is on my list of things to learn to make...

Reply

That is so kind of you to share your wealth!

I have always wanted one, but it is one of those things that we just couldn't afford.

Reply

I would love to win a KitchenAid mixer, best memories of a mixer would be making macaroons with my friends and I enjoy making healthier versions of desserts as well! Definitely will come handy for the holidays - as a busy grad student, this mixer would make life a lot easier!

And the one recipe that could use a KitchenAid mixer would be my zucchini bread.

It would be awesome to have this Kitchenaid mixer. My daughter and I would use it all the time.

Best memory of a KitchenAid is licking the bowl!

My first Christmas away from home I had no mixer to make my traditional cookies. I had a friend who said he had an old mixer in his garage and I was welcome to it. It turned out to be an old model Kitchen Aid with the glass bowl, as I wiped the dirty away I started to cry. The label said made in Troy, Ohio USA ... My hometown! I use this mixer to this day that has been over 12 years ago.

Reply

I'm salivating! It's beautiful and I would LOVE to give it a good home!

Reply

I fondly remember the Kitchen Aid Mixers in my great grandma's and my grandma's kitchen...creating everything from lovely mashed potato concoctions, to cakes and yummy cookies!

Reply

I don't have any of my *own* holiday super special recipes because I haven't had a mixer! Some of the recipes from my great grandma and grandma are just too hard to do by hand or even with a hand held beater. I would use the mixer to make holiday cakes and cookies for sure. Starting with mass quantities of sugar cookies from scratch!

Reply

I have eyed these beauties for years, but have yet to be able to afford one and still mix everything by hand (don't even have an electric hand mixer - whip cream is hell!). What a generous act of kindness for you to do this giveaway!

Reply

I use to borrow a friends mixer for holiday parties and made an amazing peppermint chocolate meringue style whipped concoction that required about 20 minutes of straight mixing in the Kitchenaid. I've since ditched the recipe since she moved and took the mixer with her, but I would love to have one to whip up my dense chocolate loaf cake and gingerbread at Christmas!

Reply

My grandma used a kitchen aid stand mixer to make all sorts of goodies. I always loved helping her and watching the attachments go round and round.

This will come in handy for making my holiday cookies.

These are awesome for making a homemade Italian bread, or pizza dough. I understand there is also an ice-cream-making attachment - can you say fresh sorbet??

Ooo.. My favorite recipe that would benefit from a KitchenAid mixer is definitely my cheese mashed potatoes that my momma and I make. They are total calorie bombs, but they taste amazing! There are usually 4 or 5 different types of cheese in them.

My favorite memory is of my mom baking cookies in the house. And my favorite Holiday recipe is Christmas cookies in the shapes of Christmas trees, Candy Canes and others decorate with colored sugar.

My mom and I used to commandeer the kitchenaid of the camp my dad worked at every Thanksgiving. I've wanted one ever since.

Also hurray for paying it forward! I still have a BodyBugg and BodyMediaFIT to mail out! *procrastinator*

I remember that my grandma had one of the olive green mixers, which my sister now has. She also got me one as a wedding present and she was so excited about it she came over before the wedding to give it to us. Sadly I no longer have her, but I think about her every time I use mine...which by the way is already 16 years old.

I've been wanting one for year and just couldn't justify paying for it. Now that I know more about healthy treats, I think I could get the most out of it.

Miss you. :)

I've been making cheesecake with my mother for years (using her ridiculously old mixer). Mm, the memories.

Now if I had one for myself I'd focus on some healthier recipe options. Well, I'd like to...

Reply

Firstly: I miss your face and your damn fine hugs.
Secondly: My favorite holiday recipe requiring a mixer is a not so healthy sugar cookie dough recipe that I make but once a year. I usually don't even bother with frosting, they are that good.

Reply

Thirdly: what it is about FitBloggin that is like the best time of your life and the most incredible mind meld of emotions all at the same time?

Fourthly: I actually remember making my very first homemade brown bread with my grams on her 1980s kitchen aid mixer when I was like 12. I inherited her old school mixer when she died. If I still ate bread at home her brown bread recipe would be my first choice.

Reply

I loved to make chocolate chip cookies with my mom!

My favorite memory of my Mom or grandma using the mixer is just being amazed at how large it was. We grew up poor so we never had nice things or many things so my grandma always had amazing gadgets and she always let me help and I felt I was the luckiest girl in the world to spend time with her and learn how to make my OWN pasta and how to make my OWN bread and cookies. When Mom finally got her own I remember thinking "Wow she's so fancy, and lucky to finally have something nice for herself". Now when I go to the stores I stroke the mixers and long for my own, not to make my life easier, but because it makes me feel connected to generations of my family and reminds me of how far we have climbed since I was a child.

Reply

As far as a favorite recipe? I honor tradition, but I like to establish my own self too. I've always been fond of gingerbread and sweet potatoes. Lately I've been trying to do more whole wheat versions of things too

Oh.. I dream of having one of these (or any stand mixer!) I tried last year to make marshmallows without any kind of mixer and it was not pretty. So many things I want to try!

I remember when I was a kid, my Mom used to really love decorating cakes, and my sister and I would sit and wait for the batter bowl. We also used to help her color icing...that was so cool to us!

My mom had a cobalt colored Kitchen Aid mixer that she loved so much. (And this is totally not meant to be dramatic or anything - it's just my memory) - when she was dying, all she kept talking about was how much she wanted me to have the mixer, which unfortunately was pawned by my uncle who was supposed to be taking care of her. Every time I see a Kitchen Aid mixer, it gives me great memories.

Oh, definitely when it is time to do all the baking for christmas. Many different cookie recipes that need to get done for teacher's gifts, girl scouts, boy scouts and most importantly the veterans who live in the village, who each get a bag of homemade goodies from us each year. There are more than 240 of them and that mixer would come in really, really useful when we make those big batches of dough for our veterans...

Reply

My favorite- and funny memory was when my friend broke the plastic ring that goes on top of the bowl. We thought, how important could that piece be?? So we carried on making the dough for the pizzelles and it turns out: it is very important. Since it is such a heavy and thick dough, the flour went everywhere when we put it in: Counter, floor, cabinets and us of course as well...

all the baking that I do for the holidays, sending cookies to the troops, and for my coworkers, I love sharing my food. Not to mention mashing the darn cauliflower I eat by hand gets to be a pain in the wrist after a while :)

My Favorite Memory of the KitchenAid was the very first time I used my very own one. I made Peanut Butter Cookies for my brand new husband (8 years ago). He knew I wanted a KitchenAid really bad so he surprised me one day and took me to the store to pick out the one I wanted. We took it home and after deciding on what to make, Peanut Butter Cookies, I went to work. I creamed the butter and sugar together, added the egg and peanut butter, then with the mixer on almost as high as it would go, I added in all the flour at one time. That did not turn out so well for our kitchen which as you would guess was covered in flour. The cookies still turned out great. Lessons learned, add flour on low a little at a time.

My homemade Buckeye's (Peanut Butter Balls) could use the help of a KitchenAid AND a Unilever Spread! Buckeye's are dense with Butter, Peanut Butter, and Powdered Sugar. Not the best for you but oh so good. And lets not forget the chocolate bath they take once the core hardens. Sadly my beloved KitchenAid was lost during a bad moving experience.

My favorite holiday memory using a Kitchenaid mixer is with my Grammie. We would make pizzelles every year for Christmas. Best memories ever! And that mixer sure did get a workout.
