M&M Cookie/Brownies

Reflection-

My partner and I tried to make brownie/cookies. When we baked the batter it became one big cookie and didn’t turn out the way we wanted it to. We improvised and mushed the cookie together, made it into a square, and cut it into appetizer sizes. We also added M&M’s on top to make it halloween themed. Even though it didn’t turn out the way we wanted it to, it still tasted delicious!

Lava Cake

Lava Cake – Chocolate fondant, with the outside as a nice chocolate flavor and the inside with mellow filling. The lava cake is the perfect small batch of dessert! I made two lava cakes and one turned out great but the other wasn’t cooked enough and all exploded onto my plate. This was a self-evaluation lab, everyone had to work independently. I think I did a good job in the process of this lab and showing I’m capable to work alone.

Banana Muffins

The banana muffin lab is a quick bread method. Containing bananas and lots of delicious ingredients that bring the muffins together. The muffins were baked in the oven to perfection. I had great communication with my partner during the lab.​ We used the muffin method and we demonstrated good team work. I have worked in this kitchen before so this lab was a good refresher to knowing where all the equipment is.


Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

Reflection

This lab was the first thing we baked in class. It was easy to make and was delicious. The cookies were similar shape and size, soft, also golden brown. They’re more healthier than store bought cookies, because you know the ingredients and what’s inside. I worked well with my partner and worked on time. The reason why we did this lab was so we can get familiar where the equipment is in the kitchen. Also, we did this because we can get familiar with the environment that we will be working in.
