Baking with Ryleigh...Chocolate Chip Cookies...

During class the girls made Chocolate Chip Cookies (Nestle Tollhouse- recipe on the back of the package of chips)... great way to use many skills- listening and following directions, colors (I color coordinate the bowls), fine motor, math (measuring) and science (how and why do the cookies rise?)... but best of all they are just yummy!
The girls adding their eggs...

Using lots of arm strength to stir the dough...
Spooning in the flour...
Adding the chips...
Luckily...Braeden woke up from his nap... just in time to help taste the cookies with the girls... my favorite part is the hair...
Here he is saying..."cookieeeeeeeeeeeeee"....
Taking a bite...
Grumpy that it is not more chocolate-ie ....
Decides to eat it anyway... but decides he will not be happy about it...

Love the spelling of Ryleigh's name. Same as my daughter! Don't see it so often. Enjoys the cookies!

Chocolate chip cookies are the best - especially when kids help bake them! =)

I love cooking science, and the measuring is also good practice for science too, not just math.
