<div class="value user_content"><p>Hi all -</p><p><br></p><p>Happy Holidays! Hope to see you all at the Festival of Lights this weekend! But I wanted to let y'all know about the bake-off if you are known for your desserts. <br>
</p><p><br></p><p>Do you have the best brownie recipe?
What about the best pie? Or can you make anyone like peppermint?</p>
<p><a href="http://patch.com/N-3Gg%20">Patch is sponsoring a bake-off Saturday, Dec. 11 at the Riverdale Park Holiday Market and Festival of Lights</a>.</p>
<p>Anyone can enter the bake-off and compete for the "crowd-favorite"
dessert or the "editor's pick" dessert.</p>
<p>Contestants should enter their already baked desserts by 1 p.m. Look
for the Patch table and enter the dessert there. Desserts should be
baked in two 9" by 13" baking dishes. The entries will be cut into
bite-sized pieces for market shoppers to taste.</p>
<p>Shoppers will vote for one winner and another winner will be picked
by Patch editors.</p>
<p>The crowd pleaser will win a gift card to a local business, while the
editor's favorite will get a gift card to Starbucks. The winners and
their recipes will be featured in a Patch story this holiday season.</p>
<p>The winner will be picked around 4 p.m. Winner must be present to
win.</p>
<p><em>Note: Please include the recipe for the entries for allergy
purposes. </em></p>
