Monique

Today was Monique's last day at Wairakei School. She is returning to Linwood Avenue School next week.

To say goodbye, Miss O'Neill organised a special surprise treat for us...we made double chocolate cookies!!! Yummy!

First of all some of us helped to put melted butter, brown sugar and an egg into a bowl. Here is Shougo and Monique using an electric beater to mix it all up.

After the butter, sugar and egg were mixed up really well, we put flour, baking powder, cocoa and chocolate drops into the bowl too. Here is Hunter and Madisyn mixing those ingredients up with the butter and egg mixture.

The next thing we had to do was spoon the mixture into balls onto some baking paper. Here is Sophie, Caitlin and Carlos with one of our trays ready to go in the oven.

The cookies took about 10 minutes to cook. We made a lot of cookies...enough for two cookies each!

They were delicious!

I hope you enjoyed the surprise treat, Monique. Have a fabulous time at Linwood Avenue School!
