Teen Cookie Bake-Off!
Posted on November 15, 2011 by Miss Amanda
Pull out your favorite cookie recipe and whip up a batch from scratch! The 6th Annual Teen Cookie Bake-Off is on Saturday December 3rd. Cookie drop-off begins at 11am with Judging at 2pm and the Awards Ceremony at 3:30pm in the Meeting Room. Teen bakers should bring two dozen home-baked cookies to the library to drop off in the Meeting Room. You must bring a copy of your recipe with your name and phone number on the back. We will have copies of all the recipes available.
Rules:
- You are eligible if you are in grades 6-12.
- You must register online and pick up a copy of the rules at the Children’s and Programming Desk.
- No commercial mixes permitted (e.g., Betty Crocker)
- Store-bought cookies are not allowed unless altered from their original form and used as an ingredient.
Entries will be judged on the following criteria: taste, creativity, presentation and level of difficulty. First, second and third place prizes will be awarded for grades 6-8 and grades 9-12. In addition, a Teen Choice Award will be selected by the teen voters, for a total of 7 prizes. Judges’ decisions are final.
Teens and their families are invited to sample the cookies and attend the Awards Ceremony from 3 – 3:30pm. Good luck and happy baking!
