Gwen….can I say I almost cried when the picture of the Pecan Pie came up??? Oh, to think that could be done and THM friendly….just brought JOY to my day!!! Gotta check this book out for sure!!! Thanks!
Yummy! Can’t wait to try some of these.
Gwen, I may or may not have linked up before fully understanding the rules & regulations for doing so 😉 Being new to and overly-exicted about THM I’ve recently added it to my blog but haven’t yet included recipes links… I figured there’d probably be a lapse time while waiting for approval of my blog link but see that it immediately showed up (whoopsie) so you MAY want to remove my addition as I fear that my trying to do so could cause bigger oopsy issues 😀 Love Love Love your page and Stacy Makes Cents..well, there’s just so many.. Please forgive my ignorance & abundant joy in jumping the gun lol~
That pecan pie looks fantastic! Caramel pumpkin cheesecake is a personal favorite treat of mine at holidays, so I’m looking forward to finding one that is THM-friendly!
My favorite holiday candy was homemade chocolate caramels, but since I have switched to THM I need some good replacements. I have been making mini “reeses” cups with skinny chocolate and natural pb and erythritol. Looking forward to trying the buckeye recipe. (especially since I come from the “buckeye” state!)
Spritz cookies…. or possibly German Christmas bread… it’s a tough call. /nod.
Looking forward to using this cookbook! Looks fantastic for the holiday season. My favorite treat is most definitely cookies!
Those look yummy
I thought I was forever done with Pecan Pie, the pic looks (S)imply divine! 😀
Thanks for the recipes! I love Egg Nog and am excited about a sugar free version and the buckeyes look delicious!!
I’d love to get this cookbook! Looks amazing- thanks for sharing your find with us!
My favorite holiday treats are spritz and ginger snaps! I hope I will be able to make THM versions this season.
In the past my MIL has made Danish Butter Cookies that I have never been able to stay away from. I’m a little nervous about Christmas this year, since we will be spending it with the in-laws, and they make tons of sweets.
Oh I love all the holiday sweets, this giveaway makes me excited for Christmas 🙂
Thank you so much for the THM-version index! I just bought this eBook last week and have it printed out and in my THM recipe binder, so I’m excited to start using it!
You’re welcome! I want to hear what you make, and what you like. 🙂
I love my mom’s molasses cookies…great with some coffee!
My favorite holiday treat? That one is easy. Every year my little girls and I bake Jesus a birthday cake on Christmas eve and on Christmas morning, we sing happy birthday to Him and eat a slice of cake… FOR BREAKFAST! This is the only day I would allow that. Can’t wait to use a THM cake recipe this year. : )
My favorite holiday treat is simply fattening…milk chocolate covered pretzels. 😛
Love your recipes!
Pecan pie! So happy to see there is a thm version!
My favorite holiday treat is Pecan Pie!! I REALLY am excited to learn how to do a sugar free one <3
This cookbook looks amazing! Can’t wait for the giveaway! I looove Buckeyes! Anything PB + chocolate, really.
This cookbook looks fantastic! I’m going to try the buckeyes this afternoon.
(My favorite holiday treat would be anything with cheesecake.) 🙂
I was nervous about entering into the holidays with our new eating lifestyle, but you are all giving me hope that I can make my cake (or cookies, candies, and drinks) and eat them too! 🙂
if I don’t win, I will have to buy this book. Thanks for the awesome recipe!!!
Pumpkin pie and all of them! 🙂
my favorite holiday treat has got to be frosted sugar cookies, but I will be passing on those this year unless there is a THM friendly amazing sugar cookie recipe with frosting.
My favorite holiday treat is: pumpkin pie! Yum!
Looks fantastic! Just in time for the holidays 🙂
Looks like a GREAT recipe book!! 🙂
Pecan pie and ice cream sounds like Thanksgiving to me.. and sweetpotato pie!
My favorite holiday treat is either Thumbelina Cookies or Pumpkin Pie.
My favorite THM treat is the Martha Stewart Chocolate Crisp pie. It is coconut, chocolate and cream. What is there not to love!
I am not sure what my favorite Christmas treat recipe will be but I have loved and missed Pecan Pie. I am excited to see they have included a pecan treat. It may become my new favorite.
My favorite holiday treat is pumpkin pie, especially cold, in the morning, with whipped cream, for breakfast.
Hi, Gwen! This book looks fabulous! Thank you for sharing! My favorite holiday treat is Almond Roca. :o). I have a question for you. if that’s ok? I noticed in your review of the book above that there were two recipes you can’t use because they have molasses in them. I remember seeing a post a couple weeks ago about homemade brown sugar that calls for blackstrap molasses. I thought Pearl said it was ok because such a small amount was used. Is there a larger amount used in the recipes in the book? Is that why you can’t use them? Thank you for your help! I love your blog!
My favorite has been chocolate covered pretzels, but I’m thinking I could probably be talked into those THM buckeyes. 🙂
So hard to choose one favorite! Probably Pecan pie
This would be such an answer to prayer to win this. I was just praying about what to do about the holidays coming up. This will be our first totally sugar-free Christmas….my 15 year old son and I both suffer from candida, and thanks to THM, I’ve been able to get the whole family off sugar. My other children were worried about how we’d do baking…
One quick question…the code for 20% off runs out on Thursday, but your contest goes for 7 days. Any way to get that code extended until the contest is over? I’m thinking of people like myself who will want to get that book if we don’t win
Done! The authors extended the discount for all of you. ♥ They’re SUPER sweet! (in a totally sugar free way)
Fudge is one of my favorite treats. We only make it for New Year’s Eve and look forward to it every year.
THANK YOU for reviewing this book! What an exciting book to help our THM journey! I would def. LOVE to add this to my cook book collection!
Yummy!!! I was worried about making THM recipes for the holidays… this book looks awesome!
Now you’re getting me excited about baking again! 🙂
My favorite holiday sweets are carmels!
I”d love to have this cookbook. IT sounds awesome. Thanks for sharing.
My most favorite holiday treat is fudge and I have been dreading trying to avoid the real thing at Christmas! I will have to try some THM alternatives!
Would love to see that Pecan Pie Recipe by Thanksgiving. I haven’t had Pecan Pie in YEARS!
I looove pb or almond butter ANY thing.
Looks great!
My favorite treat is eggnog!
Looks great!!! My favorite holiday treats are gingerbread cookies!
My favorite holiday recipe is chocolate chip pumpkin bread- however now that I’m a THMer- I’m not sure what I’d pick. I’d LOVE to win the book for HELP with new recipes!!! 🙂
I love buckeyes and look forward to trying this recipe! I’ve lost over 30 pounds on THM and love that this cookbook is so compatible with it.
Oh yum! I don’t know if I can pick one favorite dessert though :). Something chocolate for sure ;).
I would love to have that book! My favorite holiday treat is sugar cookies. 🙂
My favorite holiday treat is a cookie called Sandies. They are a shortbread cookie with pecans and they are rolled in powdered sugar. Wow. I’m hoping the buckeye cookies you’ve shared will help me resist. Thank you!
FUDGE! Hands down!
I’m drooling! I can’t wait to try some of these recipes, especially the snickerdoodles! And ginger snaps….and the BUCKEYES! I was born in Ohio so Buckeyes have always been a part of me. I’m really happy at the thought of being able to keep making them for the Holidays!
Pecan pie is my favorite. It tastes so good and I hope to be able to make it healthier.
WOW! Pecan Pie once again–I can hardly believe it! I so want to win this book, but if I don’t, I will get the softcover edition when it comes out. I love this Tuesday THM stuff. I am so glad you are continuing it–I signed up for your emails/blog just because of the Tuesday “stuff”. Thank you for all your recipes and hard work on this.
Pecan Pie???? Oh… I need this book!! 🙂
My Fave is sweet potato pie. 🙂

My favorite holiday treat is probably spritz cookies!
Cream cheese cookies are my favorite!
Gwen, your recipes are always soooo good! You have a spirit of sharing, and make the THM journey so much sweeter.
My favorite holiday treat – anything pumpkin! I’ve been off sugar for over five years, so I don’t typically eat holiday desserts. This world of stevia and other sweeteners has been very eye-opening and new to me. Thanks for reviewing this book!
Wow, this looks like an amazing book! All the pictures you showed look wonderful! If I don’t win, I may have to order this book! Thanks for previewing and sharing with us!
I love pies!

My favorite Holiday Dessert is Pumpkin Pie and English Trifle
Pumpkin pie use to be my favorite treat, now I’m thinking that peekin pecan 🙂

All of these recipes sound delicious! I can’t wait to try the Buckeyes
Homemade caramels are a favorite of mine. Buckeyes/peanut butter balls are my husband’s favorites. My kids love cutout Christmas cookies. This cookbook looks like a WONDERFUL way to enjoy the holidays guilt-free!
Really anything with mint and chocolate as well as pumpkin cheesecake

Probably cookies…. And hot cocoa 🙂
One of my favorite holiday treats/cookies is Tropic S’prizes my grandma always made for Christmas and we made till we went gluten free for two of my siblings… I’m really hoping that there will be a recipe that will work so we can make them again!
Pecan pie, or bars are the best.
My favorite holiday treat: Pecan Pie…haven’t had a piece in forever that fit the way I am eating. The Peekin Pecan Pie looks great. The Snickerdoodles, too!
We always make St. Nick Cookies and Chocolate Crinkle Cookies (with white powdered sugar on top.
Pecan pie!
These desserts look amazing. I made cookies with almond flour last Christmas and they were quite tasty. Would love to add this cookbook to my collection.
My favorite holiday treat is homemade chocolate covered cherries…pretty sure that can’t be THM tweaked!! 😉
This might be a double comment but I can’t find where I commented to do the rafflecopter. I just wanted to say the recipe I would like to try more than any is the pecan pie. Looks so yummy that it is mouthwatering. Thanks Gwen and to the authors for this giveaway.
My favorite holiday treat is my masterpiece I’ve made every Christmas morning since I was old enough to help cook in the kitchen and that would be Monkey Bread. So that is one thing that I definitely am curious about trying to adapt a THM version of!
Oh, I grew up with that for special occasions! That would be a great one to play with!
Wow! This cookbook looks amazing! Thanks for telling us about it, Gwen! If I don’t win it, I’m going to need to buy it!
I would love to make the pecan pie this Christmas!
Fav. Holiday treat is pumpkin pie

My favorite holiday treat is pecan pie….my step mom has the best redipe. She got this from her Mother and whenever I make this I am always asked for the recipe. Hope to find a good LC pecan pie recipe.
Drooling. Thank you for sharing that.
