Dessert First

It's Friday after work and I am ready to get started. My friend is joining me and we are about to cook our way through my kitchen. From cookies to enchiladas. I am trying out my teaching skills and how better to do this then by offering them free food.

Lets start with the cookies. We made the one type of cookie you can't go wrong with, chocolate chip. Unfortunately I messed up, my friend doesn't eat chocolate. I had to improvise only half our batch had chocolate chips, either way they turned out delicious. If you like light and chewy cookies then these are the ones for you. Sorry to tell you no recipes will be written or I would write myself out of a job. I will give you some pointers though for those who are not fluent in kitchen.
1. When it comes to baking, measurements have to be exact.
2. Love and lard aren't the only secret ingredients.

Like I said I was teaching a non chocolate eating friend how to make chocolate chip cookies. She measured out the dry ingredients. Then with a little kick in her step for getting to use a kitchen aid mixer, she got to mixing. We whipped up a batch of cookies with excellent  speed. With a spoon we scooped the batter onto the cookie sheets and got to baking. 12 minutes later, well you can see the results and make your own decision. Don't they look so good. I was able to send some home with my friend and the rest went to a high school graduate to celebrate his accomplishment.

Now on to dinner. This can be made a few different ways. Enchiladas that is. This time we made steak filling. Rolling them in home made tortillas. Home made meaning I bought them from someone who had made them in their home. Even though I am Mexican I am not one for spicy food. I prefer a green enchilada sauce to a red. Now dinner is where you add all the love. Working side by side with our own trays we filled them up with yummy enchiladas. I believe as I have most likely said before that food is what brings people together. Not only was I able to teach my friend a few good pointers in the kitchen we were able to enjoy a great meal together. Food always taste the best when you have made it yourself.

If you are not fluent in cooking or maybe you just don't have time to make all the things you want. You can send me a message or comment on a post and we can set up a cooking class. You pick out what you want to learn and I will teach you. I can also teach a group of people how to make what they love.
