Cookie Classics with a Twist
We will explore two recipes in this sweet, hands-on workshop. First, we will make simple yet delicious peanut butter cookies with just a few ingredients. Perfectly chewy with crisp edges, they deliver rich peanut butter flavor without the fuss. Then we will take the classic favorite chocolate chip cookie to the next level. By browning the butter first, you unlock deep, nutty, caramel-like flavors that enrich every bite. The cookies are perfectly chewy in the center with crisp, golden edges and pockets of melty chocolate throughout. Slightly salty, deeply flavorful, and wonderfully aromatic, they’re the kind of cookies that don’t last long on the plate.

Warm Desserts
In this hands-on workshop, we will prepare and bake a warm, comforting, and irresistibly rich bread pudding made from soft, custard-soaked bread baked to golden perfection.

Next, we will make an apple cobbler filled with tender, cinnamon-spiced apples and topped with a golden, buttery biscuit crust. The warm, bubbling filling strikes the perfect balance of sweet and tart, while the soft, slightly crisp topping soaks up just enough of the juices for a comforting, spoonable treat. Best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
