Almond lace cookies

I put almond lace cookies for my third iteration because I thought was the toughest. When I made, I suddenly found out this is the easiest one. The chocolate chip cookies is the hardest one for me because it is really hard to control the sugar, combining brown and normal sugar.


Making almond lace cookies need to prepare 25g cake flour, 20g unsalted butter, 2 egg white, 65g sugar, and 80g almond.

First,mixing eggs and sugar and butter. When the bubble comes out, it can add the almond and flour. stirring softly and carefully because almond is easy to break. 






I leave for 2-3 hours. The temperature is 375 F and baking for 20 minutes. I try really hard to make my cookies really thin with spoon. And I used fork to separate all the almond.

Almond lace cookies taste really good. It is my third iteration also is the most successful one. After each iteration, I was getting more familiar with controlling ingredients and temperature.

oatmeal raisin cookies


Oatmeal Raisin cookies is my second iteration. When I make it, I did not count for the pieces. Therefore, its only come out with six small pieces. Also, I reheat for three time but still not soft. At the end I found, I forgot I have to look for Fahrenheit not Celsius so I only turn 170 F for first time.

Baking oatmeal raisin cookies need to prepare 240g cake flour, 100g unsalted butter, 40g sugar, 2 eggs, 40g honey, 220g oatmeal, and 110g raisin.


First step is to mix butter and sugar. It better to see a bubble.

  

Next step is to stir with honey and cake flour. Remember do not add all the flour at the same time.
And add all the oatmeal and raisin in. Preheating oven 370 F and bake for 20 minutes.




I fail for first time because of the wrong temperature so I had do another one for sharing. It taste pretty good.

You should try it! Let's eat healthier.

lets making a chocolate chip cookie together!!!

Making chocolate chip cookies is my first iteration. I went to store buying all the materials I need. The tools for making cookies are measurement spoon and cup. In some cases, it is better to have a flour sieve especially for making cakes. But, I did not use flour sieve for my cookies. Before I began, I like to prepare and set everything in front of me. The reason is I will not be confuse and mess up all the steps. Chocolate chip cookies need 80g unsalted butter, 170g cake flour or all purpose flour, 20g white sugar, 20g brown sugar, 1 egg, 1/4 spoon salt, and 100g of chocolate chip.


This is all the ingredients I use for my cookies

Let's begin making our chocolate chip cookies. Firstly, I put butter in a bowl and microwave for 50 seconds. And string with sugar and salt. When the bubble come up, I begin adding egg slowly. The last step is combing with flour and preheat the oven to 375 F.

cookies- intro

Hi




I'm Emily. In this creative making things project, I decide to make cookies because I haven't try to bake cookies by myself. The other reason is cookies are simple and convenient to bring and eat so I usually bring some in my bag. Also, I find out some coffee shops or people like to put or eat a piece of cookie with a cup of coffee or tea. I will make three kind of iterations. Firstly, I am going to start with the basic chocolate chip cookies. And, I will make oatmeal raisin cookies. The last one is almond lace cookies. Although baking cookies is tough for me to do, I will do my best and keep trying to come out with the most delicious cookies in the world.
