went to
jo's hse for BAKING
ytd!
my 1st time EVER baking!
xDwent down to the lib to get out recipe book
then to mac for our dinner and
then to
NTUC to buy our cookie ingredients.
after searching for everything,
we finally proceeded to her
hse.
even b4 we reached, we were tired out.
lolstarted baking at bout 8pm.
the cookie we were going to make was choc chip cookies :)
it was when we started mixing the ingredients
when we realised that we had forgotten to buy the self-raising flour.
we then decided to
subsitute it for normal flour and baking powder.
hehe1st batch - failure
the cookie didn't stick.
we thought it might have been that the flour was
nt enough so we experimented a little with it.
added more flour into a little mixture and baked it again.
2
nd batch - failure
the extra flour didn't work.
realised that our 1st batch didn't work
cusit didn't have enough time to cool off.
had to warm up the oven again.
this time, we forgot the change the temp back from 250 to 180.
when we put the mixture in,
the oven started smoking after awhile.
the next moment, the cookies were as black as tar.
3rd batch- failure
realised our mistake and prepared another batch to bake.
4
th batch - failure
looked alright but was tasteless.
added in more salt, sugar and
choco.
5
th batch- SUCCESS!
6
th batch- SUCCESS!
7
th batch- failure
we didn't put the in the oven long enough.
last batch- SUCCESS!
baking was fun.
the experimenting part was fun but when it didn't turn out right, i felt rather disappointed but when it was successful, we were elated and felt a sense of accomplishment.
GOOD
EXPERIENCE.
we should do it again sometime :)
oh, forgot to mention.
our
choco chip cookies became chocolate cookies
cus by the time we stopped adding
ingredients, the choc chips were already blended and gone. LOL
