On Thursday (I haven't had a chance to blog until now) Luke and I had a day off... I asked Luke what he would like to do...gave him some options, and he choose cooking... So cooking it was, in our pyjamas! :)
We made a basic biscuit recipe...
125gms Softened Butter
1/2 Cup Castor Sugar
1 cup Plain Flour
1 cup Self Raising Flour
Pinch of Salt
1 tsp of Vanilla Essence
1 Egg
Splash of Milk
Make into dough, roll and cut into desired shapes.
Bake in 180 degree Oven for 8-10 minutes

| The best of the cookies... |
Ok so confession time...
I forgot about the cookies once they were in the oven and totally
Oh NO!!!!!!!!!!!! So these were the best of the bunch...and once cooled they were hard as rocks :(
I gave Luke 2 warm cookies. He ate one...and the rest went in the bin!!!!!! haha...
So not a successful biscuit cooking morning but we had heaps of fun making them!! Luke loved playing with the mixture... I pretty much let him do everything and just guided and helped when needed... He felt like a very 'big' boy! Maybe we will try them again....and I will put the oven timer ON!!!!!!! :) haha...
