00:34 Hi, boys and girls.
00:35 I'm so glad that you've joined us 00:38 for some fun in the kitchen. 00:40 And today, I have some special helpers. 00:44 I have Mr. Carter. Hi. 00:47 And Ms. Rachel. 00:49 Hi. 00:50 And I've Ms. Christiana. Hi. 00:52 And I've Mr. Ben. 00:54 Hi. 00:55 And today, boys and girls, we are going to be making 00:59 oatmeal cookies, my way. 01:02 Yeah, could we have it your way? 01:04 Well, actually, 01:06 that's a little misleading in the name but it's... 01:10 whoever is making the cookies, 01:12 they get to make them their way. 01:15 Because after we make the basic recipe, 01:19 you get to add like raisins or chopped dates 01:24 or nuts or carob chips or you could add all of them. 01:30 So you can make it your way, 01:33 whatever you like. 01:35 Yeah. What do you think about that? 01:37 Good. That sounds good? 01:38 Yeah. And guess what? 01:41 Has anybody notice something on the stove? 01:44 Oatmeal cookies? 01:46 Oh, look. 01:47 I made some right before you came, and... 01:50 They look really yummy. 01:52 Do they? Do they, Carter? 01:54 And you know what, they are still a little warm, 01:56 so we'll get yours mixed up 01:58 and then you guys can taste these 02:00 while you're waiting to bake yours, okay? 02:02 Oh. Does that sound good? 02:04 All right, let's get started. 02:08 What do I have right here? What am I looking at? 02:10 A recipe. 02:12 Why do I keep looking at the recipe? 02:14 Because if you just look at it once, 02:16 then you mess up on the whole recipe. 02:18 That's right. 02:19 So we need to look at a recipe, boys and girls, 02:22 and we need to follow our recipe very closely, okay? 02:26 Okay, so you each are going to work in teams. 02:29 So let's have the girls do 02:34 one-fourth cup of packed brown sugar. 02:38 That's a little tricky 'cause when it's packed, 02:42 what you are going to need to do is take your fourth a cup... 02:46 Here it is Christiana, take your one-fourth cup, 02:50 and you are going to put brown sugar in it, 02:52 and then you're going to pack it down really hard 02:55 and keep packing it down till you get it leveled. 02:58 And that's what you do with brown sugar, okay? 03:02 So packed brown sugar. 03:04 And boys, you put in 03:06 one-fourth cup of sugar. 03:11 Which sugar, Miss Cinda? The white sugar. 03:12 There you go. Just like this? 03:15 But did you pat it down? 03:16 Oh, you could do a little bit more. 03:20 There now, you can do just a little bit more on the top. 03:22 Excuse me, Miss Cinda, 03:23 can I use this to fill this one? 03:25 You sure can. Okay. 03:26 Miss Cinda, look what I'm doing. 03:28 Very good. 03:31 Now what we are going to do, boys and girls, 03:33 we are going to mix all our dry ingredients together, okay? 03:37 Oh. That's okay, Christiana. 03:38 Miss Cinda? We don't mind messes. 03:40 Miss Cinda, looks like we don't have any wet ingredients 03:43 on the table right now. 03:45 Oh, but we do. 03:47 Ah. 03:50 We have apple sauce. 03:53 So we are going to add all our dry ingredients, mix it up, 03:56 and then we'll add our apple sauce, okay? 03:58 In here? Yes, very good. 04:00 That's awesome. 04:02 That's perfect, Christiana. 04:04 No, you don't have to level it up, just pat it down. 04:07 Miss Cinda, look what I'm going to do. 04:09 Good job. And put it in here, Miss Cinda? 04:12 Very good, yes. 04:13 Okay, I'm going to set this over here. 04:16 Wow, Miss Cinda, brown sugar sticks together really good. 04:19 Doesn't it? Miss Cinda, look. 04:21 Very good. See, you see what it does when it's packed. 04:24 Look boys and girls, see what they're talking about. 04:27 See that, can you see the brown sugar in there? 04:29 It takes the form of the cup. 04:31 Look. 04:33 That's 'cause you packed it in there very good. 04:35 It's kind of looks like a chocolate cupcake 04:37 with vanilla frosting. 04:40 It kind of does. 04:41 That's actually awesome, it kind of does. 04:44 Okay, boys, you put in one-half cup 04:48 of all-purpose flour. 04:51 And, girls, you put in half a cup 04:53 of whole wheat flour. 04:55 So you see the whole wheats? Yes, Miss Cinda. 04:57 It has a browner color. 04:59 Nope, you want the flour. 05:01 That's your baking powder. 05:03 So we are not quite ready for that. 05:05 Miss Cinda, it kind of looks like... 05:06 A half-a-cup. 05:07 This is all a... There's your half-a-cup. 05:09 Half-a-cup. 05:11 Yeah. 05:13 I'm going to take your sugar off. 05:14 So... Oh, let's see. 05:16 Miss Cinda, is this a half a cup? 05:18 Yes, it will say a one, and then a slanted line, 05:21 and a two, boys and girls. 05:23 And that's your half cup. 05:24 Miss Cinda, look what I'm going to fill mine up. 05:27 That's good. You can do that too if you want. 05:30 I should have put it in bare bowls, shouldn't I? 05:32 Because it's hard to get your cup in there. 05:35 But you guys are doing great. 05:37 That's awesome. 05:39 And then after we get the flour, 05:41 then we'll do our baking powder and salt. 05:47 Miss Cinda, it kind of wants to stick in the teaspoon. 05:51 Does it? Okay, that's full now, Ben. 05:53 You can level it off. 05:55 Show the boys and girls how we level it off, Ben. 05:58 Take... No, no. 05:59 Take the flat side of your knife. 06:01 There you go. 06:03 See that boys and girls? 06:05 There you go, that's good. 06:07 And now he has a level one cup. 06:10 Okay, and you are going to do the same thing. 06:12 Take the flat part... 06:15 There you go, Christiana. Miss Cinda, look at mine. 06:17 Except, Christiana, see how you have some space? 06:20 Boys and girls, she's got still some space right here 06:23 and you need to make sure you get the flour in there 06:25 'cause you want an even amount. 06:28 Otherwise, your recipe won't turn out. 06:30 Uh-huh. 06:31 That's good, Rachel. 06:33 Keep going 'cause that will fill in that side. 06:34 No, you're all right. Use the flat side of your knife. 06:37 That's good. 06:38 Miss Cinda, I covered the black... 06:39 There you go. Okay, dump it in. 06:41 Miss Cinda, I covered the black sugar. 06:44 Oh, the brown sugar you mean? 06:45 Uh-huh. 06:47 Okay, all right, girls, find your half a teaspoon. 06:51 Boys, find your teaspoon. 06:54 Is it this one, Miss Cinda? 06:57 It'll say one a line, and two. 07:00 Let's wipe it off so we can see it. 07:02 Teaspoon will be just... 07:03 Wipe it off so I can see it. Yup, that's a half teaspoon. 07:06 Just see...

And then... 07:59 Miss Cinda, I picked up about one cup. 08:01 Good job. 08:03 Okay, now I need you to stir all this up. 08:06 How many?
