OPEN!!

Lord willing, Knaus Berry Farm will open for the season on November 11, 2008.

 Be sure to come in and get your “fix” of the World-Famous Cinnamon Rolls, not to mention our delicious fresh-baked bread!

You might think that in the off-season I would want to have nothing to do with baking…

More or less true, but I did get roped into a special project recently:

Decorating a Wonder Woman cake for my daughter’s 3rd Birthday party.  Who could resist her? 

So, I’m making dough for cinnamon rolls and cookies and brownies and bread all day long. Then I smell the fresh baked goodness fill the air as they are baking … Yes, I break down and eat some almost every day.

Especially when we try a new item.

Over the past couple weeks we were working on a new recipe for oatmeal raisin cookies.

We would make some and I would bring them home for the whole family to critique. We reworked the recipe twice, so we had three different varieties of the cookie, and, of course, I had to bring some home every time.

As we were tasting the product everyone would comment on the cookies having this taste or that taste. It came to our attention that we don’t usually sit and make comments and comparisons about everything else we would eat. That’s when we decided we should compare and critique other foods.

I decided to start with chocolate chip cookies.

We went to the grocery store and picked three name brand cookies (Famous Amos, Keebler, and Nabisco) and the store generic. I reminded everyone what flavor we were trying to pick out: a little vanilla, chocolate chips, and lots of sugar.

Here are my ratings on a scale of 1 to 5. 

Store generic - (0)  Cookie was floury and not very sweet, not many chips and not really good chocolate flavor. Oh, yea, and the cookie was a little over done.

Famous Amos - (.5)  Not a very sweet cookie, the chips were better, but not enough.

Keebler - (1)  A little better cookie and good chips.

Nabisco - (4.5)  You could smell the difference when you opened the bag. Very good cookie and chocolatey chocolate chips.

My two year old daughter wouldn’t finish the generics or the Famous Amos cookies. She liked the Keebler, but asked for seconds and thirds of the Nabisco.

I really didn’t expect that big of a difference in the name brand products.

…And I have to add now that the Knaus cookies we make have them all beat hands down.

We are going to try other things in the days to come. I’ll keep posting the results here.

God bless you all …
