Ro: Hey guys, it’s Ro! Welcome to another Nerdy Nummies, today I have a
Ro: special guest, Felicia Day! Felicia: Hi!
Ro: She’s a super cool actress, writer, producer, and she has her own
Ro: YouTube channel, Geek and Sundry. I’ll put the links down below
Ro: so that you can go check out her channel and her Twitter.
Felicia: Oh thank you very much! Ro: And all your social medias!
Felicia: I try to be amusing. Ro: Yeah, she’s pretty funny and I kind of
Ro: love her! Felicia: Aw! Ro: So, today, we are gonna be making something
Ro: that I thought would be a perfect fit. We’re gonna be making
Ro: D20 Dice Cookies! Felicia: I am very excited about this, because I
Felicia: love dice, I have a huge collection. Ro: Because I heard that you’re
Ro: kind of into tabletop games and stuff. Felicia: I am into the tabletop
Felicia: games, I played D&D a lot, and I also play a lot of online role playing
Felicia: games. I love, I love dice, I basically have about 1,000 dice… At home.
Ro: I have 2, so… Felicia: Oh… Well that’s the same!
Ro: Um, we all start somewhere! Felicia: Yeah, it’s true, you, you’re…
Felicia: You know, next time I come to visit, I’ll bring you a couple.
Ro: Oh my gosh yes! Felicia: And every time you’ll accumulate a different
Felicia: color. It’s really more about the way the dice look.
Ro: They’re pretty lonely right now, look, just 2 of ‘em!
Felicia: I know, but this is good for a fire mage or something don’t you think?
Ro: Yeah! It’s perfect, it’s like Mother of Dragons looking!
Felicia: Oh my gosh I love that show! Ro: OK, let’s see who wins,
Ro: ready, set, go!
Felicia: Ew, a 2 and an 8, that wasn’t good on either of our parts!
Ro: OK, that was pretty bad… Felicia: Yeah…
Ro: OK, let’s go on to what we’ll need!
Ro: Eggs, flour, butter, sugar, just regular white sugar.
Felicia: Vanilla, baking powder, salt, and a hexagon shaped cookie cutter.
Felicia: This 6 sides. Ro: Yeah, 6! Felicia: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6! Not an octagon!
Ro: Not an octagon! Not a stop sign, I thought it was a stop sign.
Felicia: I wasn’t gonna, I wasn’t gonna out you like that!
Ro: I’ll out myself!
Ro: Now, first we’re going to beat together our sugar and butter,
Ro: until it’s nice and smooth and fluffy! It’s called creaming! Felicia: Oh!
Ro: So we’re gonna add the sugar first. Felicia: OK! We’re going to crrrr…
Ro: Crrr-ream! Felicia: Crrrr-ream it! Ro: Crrr-ream this!
Ro: And then we’re gonna add 3 sticks of butter which is a cup and a 1/2.
Ro: because each of these are a 1/2 cup. Felicia: This is already a good
Felicia: recipe! With this much butter, it can’t go wrong!
Felicia: OK, come on butter! Ro: Come on out of there!
Felicia: Alright, come on little butter! Ro: Come on butter!
Felicia: Come on butter! Ro: You can do it, come on! Felicia: Yes!
Ro: Yes! Felicia: Victory! And then we’re done!
Ro: Now it’s time to cream! Felicia: Oh we’re not done? Ro: Get creamy!
Ro: Are you ready? OK! Felicia: AH! I don’t like this part!
Ro: Boom! All creamy, this is what you want it to look like!
Ro: Now we are going to beat together our eggs and vanilla extract,
Ro: in a separate little bowl!
Ro: We’re gonna do a tablespoon of vanilla… No a teaspoon, just kidding!
Felicia: You could do a tablespoon! But it would probably be very vanilla-y.
Ro: Super vanilla-y! Felicia: How many teaspoons are in a tablespoon?
Ro: 4? Felicia: I would say… I would bet 3.
Felicia: How about whoever rolls the higher dice is right.
Felicia: OK, let’s see!
Ro: Come on 4!
Felicia: 10, and a 9 I won! It’s a 3!
Ro: OK, now we’re gonna crack these eggs… Gosh these are messy!
Felicia: I know, I don’t like cracking eggs.
Ro: Yeah, are you gonna do the 1 handed crack? Felicia: No! Do I look skilled?
Ro: Yeah, you can do this! OK, you ready? Here, here’s the bowl…
Felicia: This is a disaster waiting! Ro: You can either do it on the table
Ro: or the bowl edge, and you just go crack, and then you twist it over
Ro: this little thing. Felicia: TWIST? Ro: Yeah.
Felicia: I’m gonna get shell everywhere Ro! Ro: Crack, twist!
Ro: It’s a little messy, but it works and it looks pretty cool!
Ro: Crack, twist! Felicia: Ahhh! Ro: Yes, yes, yes, twist!
Felicia: Get out of there! Ro: Twist it real good! Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah!
Felicia: Well, thank you backup dancer, but that was not well done!
Ro: Nah-nah-nah!
Ro: OK, we’re just mixing the eggs and the vanilla together here, it’s
Ro: nice and smooth, and we’re going to add it into the big bowl of the
Ro: butter and the sugar. Felicia: Yay! Ro: Alright, let’s pour this in.
Felicia: OK, do I need to do this thing again? Ro: Oh yeah, you, you wanna?
Felicia: I don’t… Ro: OK, you do this I’ll gradually pour this in.
Felicia: I don’t like this…
Ro: There we go, there we go!
Felicia: Oh now it looks like something!
Felicia: Should I whip this more?
Felicia: Ah!
Felicia: It’s so loud!
Felicia: I feel like you can see the sunset in there!
Ro: Once you’ve mixed in all of your eggs, it’s nice and fluffy, we’re gonna
Ro: mix our dry ingredients. Here is 5 cups of flour, in this bowl, and we’re gonna
Ro: add 1 teaspoon of salt. Felicia: Mmmhmmm. Ro: And we’re gonna use 2
Ro: teaspoons of baking powder. Then you mix in your dice! Felicia: No!
Ro: There’ll be special surprises!
Ro: OK, are you ready to get that mixer going? Felicia: Oh again?
Ro: Ready, set… Felicia: Ahhhh! Ro: Gradually mix!
Ro: Oh gosh! Oh pfft! Felicia: OH! What am I doing wrong?
Ro: OK, whew!
Ro: Ta-da! We’ve got everything mixed… Felicia: Ta-dough! Ro: Ta-dough!
Ro: I love having you be here because you’re like, super smart and you’re like a
Ro: writer and you come up with these zingers!
Felicia: You can take that forever!
Ro: Now what you’re gonna do once you have your dough ready is…
Felicia: Is this a… Ro: Get some saran wrap. Felicia: There's a little thing. Ro: I got him, I got him.
Ro: Just get a big, long, yeah. Felicia: There, OK, yeah. Ro: Perfect!
Ro: And now you’re just gonna take the dough, it’s really sticky,
Ro: and you’re just gonna scoop it right in the middle.
Ro: Now you’re gonna put these in the fridge for about an hour, or you can do it
Ro: overnight, whatever you’d like, but an hour is the minimum!
Ro: And then we’ll roll it out.
Ro: We just took the dough out of the fridge, it’s all nice and chilled.
Ro: And it’s very moldable, easy to work with.
Felicia: And it doesn’t look disgusting anymore! Ro: No!
Ro: Gave you a little happy face! Felicia: Aw, that’s scary!
Ro: OK, well now you’re just gonna take a little bit of flour, sprinkle it
Ro: on the table, put this little blob down, sprinkle a little on top.
Ro: And then I’ll take a rolling pin, roll out the dough.
Felicia: I don’t need a rolling pin. Ro: Oh girl, OK! Felicia: No I do!
Felicia: OK here we go! Oh no! Too much! Ro: No, no that’s great.
Felicia: Too much, it’s spreading. Ro: Yeah, yeah get it to move!
Ro: Now you’re gonna take your fancy cookie cutters, and just cut out the
Ro: shapes and then put them on the pan.
Ro: Let no dough be wasted! Felicia: Why were you an orphan?
Felicia: You were like, oh my gosh, can I have some dough please?
Ro: Now you’re gonna take your spatula, and just pick ‘em up like a little
Ro: pancake, and then put them on the cookie dough sheet.
Ro: Once you got all your cookies cut out you’re gonna heat your oven to
Ro: 350 and bake them for 6-8 minutes. Just keep your eye on ‘em, you don’t
Ro: want them to burn!
Ro: Once your cookies are all done baking and they’ve had plenty of time to cool,
Ro: make sure that they’ve cooled before you decorate, you’re gonna use
Ro: frosting! We have red and white cookie frosting, and the first thing
Ro: That you’re gonna do is frost them red. And you’re gonna follow the
Ro: shape but leave a little bit of space on the edge all the way around.
Ro: Once you got your cookies frosted red, we’re gonna take the white frosting
Ro: and you’re just gonna make an outline all the way around the red.
Ro: Oh that looks really good! Oh my gosh, look at you! Felicia: Look at me!
Ro: You have so much control!
Ro: Now that we have a white outline all the way around, we are going to now
Ro: make the little triangle designs, making these look like actual dice.
Felicia: Oh gosh! OK, that toothpick is magic, it’s like your Harry Potter
Felicia: Wand! That toothpick.
Ro: Come to here, come to here! Felicia: OK, where do I go now?
Ro: OK, you ready? Once you hit there, go here. Felicia: Go north, go north!
Ro: I feel like those flaggers at the airport. Felicia: Where am I going?
Felicia: Where am I going? Ro: Go back, go back this way. Felicia: OK, ahhhh!
Ro: That’s perfect, oh my gosh! Both: Boom!
Ro: Perfect landing, nice job pilot!
Felicia: That looks like a real dice! That looks awesome!
Ro: Yeah, these are so cute!
Ro: Ta-dough! See I used it!
Ro: Our cookies are all done! we’ve got our D20 Dice Cookies, they’re pretty
