stuck thank you so muchmy lovely in the camera person so nowthat our hands are nice and clean andnice and dry we are ready to startbaking some cookiesnow that our hands are clean it’s timethat we preheat our oven I wouldrecommend them we asked her grown-ups todo it but it is really fun time to dosome counting so most ovens start at 350so we know 353 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 9095 400 perfectI knew whatever ingredients before can Itell you guys exactly how much you needso this is flour and we need a cup and ahalf of flouryou will need 3/4 of a cup of sugar 1large egg 1/2 a teaspoon of baking sodaa stick of butter actually you need 1/2a cup of butter but if you guys can geta little closer here and take a lookwhat’s really cool is on butter they’llactually tell you 1 tablespoon – andthey cut it out here so this line hereis 1/2 is 1/4 of a cup this line here is1/3 of a cup but a whole stick of butteris 1/2 a cup and we want to make surethat our butter is softened because ifit’s too hard it’ll mix right so see howmy butter is you see we want squishybutter and the last thing you guys aregonna need for this is a half a teaspoonof vanilla again and then we have somesprinkles for laterso the very first thing is we’re goingto combine three ingredients together toget everything ready so first we’regoing to combine the butter we’re goingto open that up and put it in ourhandy-dandy mixing bowl we are going tocombine our sugar put those togetherbecause the sugar and the buttergirlfriends and then finally the lastthing that we’re going to combine in thefirst step is the egg so we’re going tocrack that in and drop it in thereand then we’re going to combine and mixit upnow everybody is a different way to dothis but I personally like to use a forkand mix everything together the nicething about baking is not really a wrongway to do it as long as we keep speed sothis is what our butter sugar and eggshould look like all combined togethersee how we really don’t have many piecesour little white spots everything in ourcookies they’re all good friends they’reall mixed together and we want to makesure that we’re really deliberate abouthow many ingredients we put in becausehere’s something really fun about bakingcookies or any kind of baking really anykind of baking you guys so we are goingto start mixing in more ingredients soand it’s still 20 whose cookies becausethere’s a lot of flour in here andsometimes you think how is it all gonnawork out somehow it always does and thenwe’re gonna put in our baking soda andthe last ingredient here is our vanillaput all those together and then we startmixing and do you guys have some optionsI’m gonna use a fork but some of youguys might have hand mixer or you mighthave a KitchenAid however you guys wanta drink will be perfect just as long asour ingredients all mixed in togetherand sometimes it’s okay if we use ourhands too but if you do use your handsplease remember you have to wash themand before we get to mixing there’sanother part that’s really reallyimportant when we’re baking cookies andjust any time we’re in the kitchen wewant to make sure that everything getsput in the sink and out of the way allof our garbageshows anything like that gets put awayand rinsed off so that way cleanup isn’thard because that sometimes is thehardest part about baking is when ourkitchens get really messy and then wehave a really big mess to clean up butif we do it as we go it’s not thatdifficultso I used my my hands to mix my doughwhich means they just have to be washedone more time that’s going to removeanything that we make sure we keep ourhands clean as we’re the only one sweetour cookies sometimes our arms are andyour neighbors or friends or brothersand sisters so to be kind to all of ourfriends and neighbors we just want tomake sure our hands are clean now comesthe fun part we’re gonna roll our doughso I have my dough I just picked up alittle piece of it from the inside ofthe bowl and now you’re gonna roll itinto a circle just like that the nicestthing about cookies is that cookies area lot like our friends they come in alldifferent shapes and sizes and sometimesthey look different but they’re all goodand delicious on the inside not that ourkinds of delicious but our friends aregood and sweet on the inside aren’t theyso now that your dough is rolled intothese nice little spheres I do want youguys to know that my dough made 32cookies so depending on how big or smallyou make them you should have close tothat that number as well if you makethem really big they might take a littlebit longer to cook but that’s okay butnow comes one of my favorite parts isthat we have to flatten our toe becauseright now they are really round and wewant to make them more cookie shape soif you guys want to grab a glass andwe’re gonna wet the bottom of the glassnot too much just enough to get it getitdamn and then we have a bowl of sugarhere and I’m gonna dip my glass into thesugar so that the bottom is covered andthen I’m gonna take my cup and I’m gonnaflatten my cookie and then we’re gonnado that for each one and we want to makesure cuz that’s how we’re going to getour good cookie shape and these aregonna be extra delicious so you’ll justkeep doing that through all your greaseso as you can see all of my cookies havebeen flattened and now the next part isoptional if you guys have some of thesenice little sugar decorators orsprinkles feel free to put them on ifyou don’t it’s okay your cookies aregonna be delicious no matter what I havethem here so I’m just gonna decorate afew of my cookies for a little extrapizzazz now that we’re all done talk toMarc cookies we want to make sure thatwe wash our hands one last time and thenwe’re gonna put them

andillustration was done by felicia bond ifyou give a mouse a cookie if you give amouse a cookie he’s going to ask you fora glass of milk and when you give him aglass of milk he’ll probably ask you fora strong and when he has finished hewill ask for a napkin and then he’llwant to look at himself in the mirror tomake sure that he doesn’t have a milkmustache and when he looks in the mirrorhe might notice that he needs a trim andso he’ll probably ask you for a pair ofnail scissors and when he’s finishedgiving himself a trim he’ll want toborrow a broom to sweep up he’ll startsweeping and then you’ll get carriedaway and sweep every room in the househe may even washing he may even end upwashing the floors as well and when he’sdone you’ll have to fix them up a littlebox with a blanket and a pillow andthey’ll crawl in and make himselfcomfortable and look the pillows a fewtimes and he’ll probably ask you to tellhim a story so you’ll read to him fromone of your favorite books and thenhe’ll ask to see the pictures on his ownand so we’ll ask for paper and he’lldraw a picture and when the picture isfinished he’ll want to sign his namewith a pen and then he’ll want to hanghis picture on the refrigerator whichmeans he’ll need scotch tape and whenhis drawing is hung up he’ll stand backto look at it looking at therefrigerator will remind himHill asks you for a glass of milk andchances are
