A fun idea for testing your skills is to put your cookie up as the best. The students in first level culinary class did just that. I will have to say that they can meet any challenge. Not only were their cookies delicious but they were well presented. The judge was Anderson County High's very own Officer Bannach and naturally I had to be a judge since I watched them make the cookies. It began like a scene in "Chopped" the popular cooking show on the Food Network but as they settled in they began whipping, mixing, rolling and baking their way into fabulous results.
Best Overall Cookie was Group 3's Red Velvet Cookie
.
Best Presentation went to Group 1's Sugar Cookie with Vanilla Frosting and Mint Ice Cream
Most Creative and Technically difficult cookie went to Group 4's Cookie Cupcake with Mousse and Raspberry filling.
Unfortunately there were no pictures since the recipe made only a few and they were all eaten but the team that deserves bragging rights also made some awesome chocolate brownie cookies.
Other cookies that won awards were:
Best Team Work: Group 7
Coconut Chocolate Cookie
Most Organized: Group 6
Snickerdoodles Cookie
Best Texture: Group 2
Peanut Butter Cookie
Most improved: Group 5
Coconut with chocolate frosting to the Best Lemon Bars
Great Job Everyone
And thank you so much for your efforts and your great attitudes. I had a great time and I hope you did too.
