Count em one two three..

The five "buckeye" group, me, Jacqulin, Amy, and Noama. I learned that cooking is more than what momma teaches me. Every action in cooking will be followed by another reaction; everything counts. As we where cooking Amy observed that our mixture was too "peanutbuttery." We went over what we had added to see if the adequate amount had been met, it seems we had underestimated the powdered sugars weight making our mixture with a lack of sweetness. We fixed out mix math calculation, and continued on our goal to making some "buckeyes." A lot of trial and error, different spoons, different ways of mixing, adding, weighing. We finally ended with a fairly decent product. The point of all this is that a large amount of learning took place by simply making some eatable buckeyes.
