Making my decidd dish

Threw out the weeks of cooking we have been planing on what to make for out kind of test on Friday each of us had to come up with an idea of what we would like to make for our stakeholders why you would like to make it for them and the recipe of making your food. I had come up with the idea of making double chocolate chip banana cupcakes. But later I found out you can't find anything one making double chocolate chip cupcakes so I decided it would make it a muffin Instead So I  got ready and done my recipe and then I fell upon another situation we couldn't youse chocolate that ruined the whole recipe you cannot have a double chocolate banana muffin Without chocolate or else It would just be a banana muffin and that would just be like eating banana bread or cake So I restated and came up for a new plan which turned out to be more awesome and meaning dull to me and my stake-holder my mum. I did some thinking and decided I wanted to do cookie or cupcake After having some time doing research one both foods and looking at the types of cookies and cupcakes I decided to go with a cookie because It was much easier to decide and make my food. As I looked into the types of cookies I decided to make Jam drop cookies It meant something to me and my mum. My mum use to make them for me and my sibling when we were younger and for me, that held as a memory but to my mum, it was a time when we were younger and things were much simpler to her so I wanted to give her the cookies to make her happy and to let her know we still are there for her when she is there for us. This definitely one-ups the Reasoning for my double chocolate chip banana cookies. I found a recipe and wanted a week later. A week later I found out that we were going to be put into groups that made me happy because I got some help but I felt sad because I thought that meant I couldn't do my original plan to make my recipe until I heard my name be called. I was a group leader and got to do my own recipe and share with my group that had Kegahn,Lily, Taoa and they can make it with me. The teacher gave us the instructions to write down some jobs On the piece of paper used for our recipe so no-one got left out. So we set off to a table to carry out the teachers instructions. That day it was Only me and Keghan who were there so we had a bit more extra work to do. We gave everyone a task to do to keep them busy. A day after I met Lily in the art class a told her about us being in a group and what we were making she was siked! I couldn't find Taoa but I guess on Friday he would know we were in our group. Friday Everyone was here and that had all agreed to The job arrangements. As we started doing our work We kind of got confused about the rule argument so we decided to trash the job idea and fo out own thing and agree on the thing we would get. As we had all out stuff ready we stated cooking and lining up the cooking trays. We got super confused as we started mixing the cookie do together because It kind of looked like puke So we asked for some help from our trusted teacher and teacher ade Jill's and miss Hindson. They told us we where doing okay and was do it right we just had to work harder to the mic and push the air into our dough. As I inspected Our group I noticed Lily Did a lot of work do I would like to give a special thanks to her. We where almost finished way just needed to make a dent in the cookies and we have the perfect person for the Thumb pressing Lily and taoa added some of the jamo and made the ball shapes with keghan and we placed our cookies in the oven set our timer on for fifteen minutes and started to clean. After 15 minutes of cleaning, we moved one to our blog post and took cookies out of the rest for like five minutes. Five minutes had passed and we where ready I went home and gave it to my mum to taste... She said it was perfect I couldn't advise her to give more constructive criticism but she stayed to her point. So I gave a Taste and decided that I could have made it less chewy. I had fun making my food because I had a group to work with.

decorating cupcakes

in cooking class today today is currently a friday afternoon we made some delicious cupcakes first we made the impotend buttercream icing we needed to mix to our satisfaction the we added a dash or two dashes of red food coloring then we mixed it till it looked like perfection next we needed to add some flavouring we added salted caramel to decize the taste then we grabbed our spatulas and started decorating out cupcakes with m and m s and sprinkles  it is very important to be careful using the icing and not to gwt it on the paper and also to make the cupcakes alike.
