While rolling balls of cookie dough, the door sensor beeped, and in walked my friend Jackie with her toddler in tow. A casual drop by from a friend led quickly to some unexpected help in the kitchen for me and a spontaneous play date for my little one. As one of my regular cooking pals, Jackie and I have become more than comfortable in each other’s kitchens. She sat down to chit chat a bit but within moments, her hands were slathered with cookie dough too. When cooking with a friend is part of life’s routine, kitchens are shared and the days of passive observation just a memory.
Cooking with friends can be really great fun, you can bake cookies together or make pasta together and then take over to your home for others to taste it. Most of our recipe make use of sugar in high quantity. If you can use a natural sweetener like agave you can reduce the intake of extra calories which is far more healthier.
