Today's challenge is all about having the imagination to substitute one ingredient for another. My mom was not the best cook and she had this really bad habit of substituting ingredients for another. She had many fails including the time she used tomato juice instead of tomato sauce to make pizza. However, one of her successes was using cake mix as a shortcut to make cookies. So, today, in honor of my mom here's her recipe.
Ingredients:
1 (18.25 – ounce) box cake mix
2 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup add-ins like chocolate chips or M&M’s (if adding in sprinkles use 1/2 cup)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl mix together cake mix, eggs, and oil until smooth. You can do this step in the bowl of your stand mixer with the paddle attachment, mixing ingredients on low until combined.
Mix in desired add-ins until evenly incorporated.
Using a medium (2- tablespoon) cookie scoop portion the dough onto the prepared cookie sheet 2- inches apart. Bake for 9-10 minutes, or until lightly golden at the edges.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 3-4 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Today's Challenge is to use the following sketch and papers that you normally would use for a different subject. For example, my LO is a travel theme paper kit but I used it for a little boy playing. OR, use the word imagination in your title. OR do both!
