Cookies

i think you already know the answer imbusol

There is no logical reason why they are called "cookies" in America any more than there is any particular reason they are called "sweet biscuits" in the U.K. That is simply what they have been called for generations.

Yes

Each Girl Scout council chooses the incentives for their council. There are two different companies which bake the Girl Scout cookies and each company offers their own incentives for Girl Scout councils to choose from. Girl Scout councils may also order incentives from other sources or offer some form of cookie credit as incentives.

You would need to contact your local Girl Scout council to find out what incentives they are offering.

Some people will not eat the cookies, then if there are children present they might each eat six or eight each. I think it would be a safe estimate to allow 3 to 4 per a person. Then usually the kids will pocket a few for later and help get rid of the left overs.

You can use tapioca flour in some cookie recipes. It does not act like wheat flour, so only use tapioca flour if the recipe specifically says to.

You may add an egg or a couple tablespoons of milk. In a typical chocolate chip cookie or sugar cookie (or similar), milk will produce a flatter, crisper cookie, and egg will produce a puffier cookie. If you want to get fancy, heavy cream or créme anglais works as well. In lemon or orange cookies, you could add lemon or orange juice.

If you are talking about the volume then yes, the more sugar you add the higher the cookie will rise. The less sugar or instead no sugar at all, the cookie will look dull and flat and would have no taste at all. The cookie rises because of the yeast inside the dough of the cookie and yeast feeds on sugar so it expands.

Expiration dates, on girl scout cookies like all foods, is a guideline after which it is expected the product will lose flavor, "freshness", and/or nutritional value. Some foods, especially refrigerated ones like milk, may even become contaminated by microbes or bacteria that can be harmful to your health. However, there is no sudden "switch" that occurs on the expiration date that causes the food to suddenly become inedible. Rather, it is expected that around that time the food's quality will begin to deteriorate. Expiration dates often void return policies as well.

Specifically for girl scout cookies, after the expiration date they will likely become stale and less tasty. If it is not too long after the date, you can probably still eat them. However if it has been, say, years, you should probably just throw them away.

It can vary greatly based on the type, recipe, and / or brand. Crackers are usually crunchy, fairly dry, with a good snap or bite to them. Cookies are generally slightly moister and softer, with a sweeter taste to them and often with added ingredients or different flavors.

I have only used imitation vanilla when making chocolate chip cookies. Yes, and it will make little difference in the final product, since the main flavor of chocolate chip cookies comes from a combination of ingredients, including brown sugar, butter and chocolate chips. Using high quality pure vanilla is more important when it's the primary flavoring, like vanilla ice cream or custard.

There are 18 different animal shapes in the Animal Crackers cookie zoo! Animal crackers were created and achieved fame many years before the advent of NBC.

In the beginning they were just called "Animals."

They were imported from England when "fancy" baked goods first began to be in demand here.

In the latter part of the nineteenth century they were manufactured domestically by Herfield & Ducker in Brooklyn as well as Vandeveer & Holmes Biscuit Company in New York.

Both firms eventually became pare of the New York Biscuit Company and "Animals" were one of their staples.

Under the National Biscuit Company banner, animal biscuit crackers were made and distributed.

When "Animals" were adopted by NBC, their name was changed to "Barnum's Animals Crackers," named after P. T. Barnum, showman and circus owner who was so famous during this era.

Barnum's Animals Crackers provided the nation with a new type of animal cracker, produced in a small square box resembling a circus cage with a tape at the top for easy carrying.

Soon Animal (the s was dropped) Crackers became part of the American scent and of almost very American household.

In total there have been 37 different varieties of animal crackers since 1902.

The current crackers are tiger, cougar, camel, rhinoceros, kangaroo, hippopotamus, bison, lion, hyena, zebra, elephant, sheep, bear, gorilla, monkey, polar bear, seal and giraffe.

To celebrate its 100th anniversary, Barnum's added the koala to the menagerie in September 2002.

Yes, you can re-bake cookies that were not fully baked the first time around. However, you will need to lower the temperature on your oven to ensure that the batch does not become burned. Leave the cookies in for a period of about five to ten minutes before checking them again.

Vanilla is not absolutely necessary in peanut butter cookies. The main flavor is the peanut butter in these recipes. However, vanilla rounds out the flavor and improves the cookies for those with very discriminating tastes.

Indians. Oh and zebras.

Girl Scout cookies in the US are not marked with an expiration date due to the fact that they are baked for a once-a-year sale season. The cookies are shipped on a first produced, first shipped basis based on an internal production code that the baking companies use. No cookies are carried over to the next year.

Girl Scout Cookies have a shelf life of about 8 weeks or one year if kept in a freezer.

peanut butter cups

three eighths

In US dry measure a barrel is 105 quarts(struck)

That is equal to 7056.066 cu. in.

1 lb. of flour is approximately 50 cu.in.(slightly more)

1 bbl of flour therefore is approximately 141 lbs.

**struck means level, as opposed to heaped, a heaped bushel = 1.25 struck bushels or 5 peck (struck)

The cinnamon rolls need to be tight. If you roll them too loosely then they will fall apart.

Cookies are a pastry and pastries, like cakes and muffins, are not candy. Enough said.
