In this 4 week flexible course we will learn some fun and delicious recipes for cookies.  There will be no live sessions for this course.  Your little chef will be able to complete the sessions on their schedule and then post photos of their final products on the classroom page.  I will post new recipes and videos at the start of each week. In each video I will break down the steps for the recipes and demonstrate the entire recipe from start to finish. Given the age of the learners adult assistance will be necessary. This can be a great weekly bonding session in which you and your child create something together and then share it with friends and family. 

In addition to the recipes and videos, I will present an optional recipe modification challenge each week.  Your little chef can add additional ingredients, change the form of the item, show a way to decorate, etc.  Then, you can describe the modification, post a picture, or both. Testing the modification is completely optional.  This will be a great way for everyone to share their ideas and be exposed to new flavors and techniques.  There will also be an extra optional activity provided each week. This may be a craft, coloring sheets, scavenger hunt, or some similar activity. 

For all my classes I encourage everyone to create their very own cookbook from the recipe sheets I provide each week. I will provide a cover that you can use as well as some ideas for how to combine but the ultimate design is entirely up to your child.  I cannot wait to see what everyone comes up with. 

I will be checking in, encouraging everyone, and providing feedback along the way.  If at any time you have questions you can post them on the classroom page and I will promptly provide an answer or suggestion.  You can participate in the activities as much or as little as you wish but either way you will learn some great recipes to share with friends and family.

The following is the schedule for the 4 weeks:
     Week 1  -  Chocolate Chip Cookies
     Week 2  -  Oatmeal Cookies
     Week 3  -  Snickerdoodle Cookies
     Week 4  -  White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies
     Optional  -  How to make your Cookbook 
                     
I do not believe in making things that only look good so rest assured you will also enjoy eating your creations. Happy Baking!  

Notes:  Parental guidance will be necessary during this class due to the age of the learners and the use of the oven.  No prior experience is necessary for this class.
