Easy Bake Oven Fail

In our infinite parenting wisdom, Santa brought the toddler an easy bake oven. She loves to bake and the 8+age range did not deter us in our quest to make our little girl happy.

Foolishly we did not realize her interest in baking in the easy bake would last approximately 3 and 1/2 minutes and not the 30 minutes the entire process takes. Hubby and I have baked a lot of VERY tiny desserts.

Yesterday the toddler and I made chocolate chip cookies. I use the words chocolate chip and cookies loosely.

The dough was supposed to make 12 cookies. Perhaps the fact that as I turned to spray the pan the toddler started shoveling raw dough into her mouth kept us from that goal, but I failed to see how 12 cookies could have even fit onto a pan the size of my palm. 

I gamely rolled out the dough (again a very loose interpretation of the word dough) into 8 balls and squished them onto the pan.

We waited the 9 minutes, our anticipation high. The directions depicted big, fluffy cookies. 

The timer went off. I'll let the picture speak for itself.
