0:30

0:31
make a flower power chocolate cookie and
0:35
Brooke is gonna be mixing together two
0:38
sticks of softened butter and she's
0:41
gonna add a cup of confectioner's sugar
0:43
these are sweetened cookies and then
0:46
she's gonna add a half a cup of
0:48
granulated sugar one egg a teaspoon of
0:52
vanilla and Jamie son you are gonna be
0:55
mixing up three cups of all-purpose
0:57

1:12
Meritor typically if you are just
1:16
matching today girl I've gotten my
1:18
practice lately with making cookies
1:20
because Jack is on this cookie kick
1:23
every day mama can we make cookies and I
1:26
kind of have to bribe them and say well
1:27
if you eat your dinner well
1:28
cookies he does absolutely love to cook
1:31
and bake so cookie making practice right
1:37
all right what's mounted son all right
1:40
so Brooke I say just dump Jamie just
1:44
take it all this is gonna be a real
1:46
thick dough oh don't forget the egg
1:49
Brooke sorry I was about to let you
1:51
forget and your vanilla flavoring okay
1:54
so we are gonna add our dough out y'all
1:56
and it needs to rest in the refrigerator
2:01
team work work going like a cutest team
2:07
so in the chocolate goes we just doesn't
2:11
that look delicious and it smells good
2:14
too and just make sure everything's
2:18
incorporated son would you put that away
2:21

2:24
that we can pat our dough out and I
2:29

2:34
looks like fudge now I'm gonna sprinkle
2:37
our parchment paper with some powdered
2:39

2:58
more sugar and then the other half of
3:01
our dough I don't like to waste a drop
3:05

do you know how mad Jack would be if he
3:13
knew that y'all were over eight guineas
3:15
house making cookies well you can bring
3:18
oh here son don't waste a drop oh that's
3:23
a whole nother foot sign well I figured
3:26
I'd leave something in the bowl for
3:27
y'all to lick I'm gonna try to resist
3:34
alright so in the refrigerator that's
3:37
gonna rest for one hour so this should
3:40
be really firm when we pull it out easy
3:44

3:48
having a good time an hour gone just
3:51
Brooke I'm gonna give you one and then
3:54

4:35
cookie cutters and now remember Jamie
4:38
you want to use every bit of your dose

4:47
sticking and of course we're gonna use
4:50
