<h2><b>Introduction</b></h2>
It’s your first time making chocolate chip cookies! You’re incredibly excited to try this out! You’ve cooked plenty of times before but never endeavored with baking. This shouldn’t be too hard to accomplish, right? You’ve seen enough Great British Bake-Off to get by.
You’ve found a reckoning by Chocaholic Cookie Pet, a well known chocolate lover and renowned online chef. All you need to do is follow the recipe.
<b>[[Have Fun]]</b><h2><b>The Beginning</b></h2>
<<set _ExampleVariable to 30>> This should take you about _ExampleVariable minutes to make.
Looking at the chocolate chip cookie recipe it says that you need 10 ingredients:
1 cup salted butter softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup light brown sugar packed
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 cups chocolate chips (14 oz)
You have all the ingredients! Perfect, already at a good start. You gather all the ingredients but realize you may not have enough room to bake on the counter. Do you put some ingredients away and come back to them when the recipe calls for them or do you believe it won’t hinder you baking?

You decide to put some of the ingredients away. You can always get them again when you need to use them. Better to have more room than to have not enough room. It’s now time to start baking!
After preheating the oven to 375°F you look back at the chocolate chip cookie recipe and read that you need to cream together the sugar and butter. After that you need to beat in the eggs. You had put the eggs away when you tried to make more room to bake. You go to grab the egg carton from the fridge and as you pull it out you bump into the fridge and drop the carton! Oh no! There’s now a huge mess on the floor. Do you clean it up now or wait to clean it up?

Good thinking. It would be hard to keep track of all the ingredients if some were put away and some were on the counter. Too much of a hassle. It’s now time to start baking!

Good thing you didn’t put away the ingredients since now it is easier to grab the things you need. As you go to grab the butter you accidentally knock the egg carton over the counter! Oh no! There’s now a huge mess on the floor. Do you clean it up now or wait to clean it up?

<h2><b>Baking Powder?</b></h2>
<<set _fourthExampleVariable to 15>> There is _fourthExampleVariable minutes left.
You decide that container B is the baking powder. All you can hope is that you are correct. You mix together the dry ingredients. Afterwards, you mix the dry and wet mixtures together and finally have your dough. It’s time for the final part of the recipe – to add the chocolate chips. The recipe calls for a specific amount to be poured into the dough; however, you love chocolate. Do you want to follow the recipe or follow your heart?

<h2><b>Cleaning Time</b></h2>
<<set _thirdExampleVariable to 20>> There is _thirdExampleVariable minutes left.
You clean up the cracked eggs from the floor. All nice and clean now. You return to baking. Luckily when you check if there are any eggs left in the carton two have survived! Phew. You successfully beat in the eggs. After beating in the eggs you now add the vanilla extract to the mixture. You’re now halfway done with making the dough!
It’s now time to mix together the dry ingredients. You need to grab the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Uh oh! You don’t have labels on the baking powder and baking soda! They’re both white. How will you be able to measure out the correct measurements for the mixture? Decide which container is the baking powder: container A or container B.

You pick the parchment paper. Once you place the cookies on the paper you can put the sheet into the oven. It takes about 10 minutes to bake. You take the cookies out of the oven and they look great! After letting the cookies rest for a bit you take a bite of it and it’s amazing! One of the best cookies you’ve had in a while. The only critique you have is that you wished there was more chocolate. Overall good job.

You pick the wax paper. Once you place the cookies on the paper you can put the sheet into the oven. It takes about 10 minutes to bake. You take the cookies out of the oven and oh no! The wax paper has melted onto the baking sheet and on the cookies. You try to salvage the cookies but no luck. You wasted a perfectly good batch of cookies because you used the wrong baking paper. Disappointment. Better luck next time.
