What the f-
Okay now we can start
Hello guys and welcome back to cooking with Emma. My name is Emma
Okay, and today has been very mediocre for me today is kind of sucked for me
I decided that to try and make things better, I would make myself cookies
So in this video, I'm going to be making some healthy
Fun-loving vegan gluten-free cookies, and I'm really excited about it
I hope that this can turn my day around. Maybe if you make these at home
And if you're having a bad day it can turn your day around too. I'm a little bit pumped about it.
I've never made this recipe before. I found it on Pinterest
And I'm just ready to hop right into it so I have to get all my ingredients and then we can begin
I'm gonna try to do the thing where you like snap and then
Everything I'll have all the ingredients
You know okay? Wasn't that cute? first step preheat oven to 365 or no 350. I don't know where I got 365 from
Ew this literally what is
Ew
Don't know what this is, but it does not look healthy
...eww That's kind of disturbing if anybody knows what palm shortening does to cookies let me know
I mean, I'm assuming it makes it moist moist moist moist moist
But I have no clue
Okay, that's fine
Sorry, I'm not I haven't really been talking a lot because I'm so focused no no no this looks not good
What the f- okay this does not look right? Why is there chunks in this coconut milk?
I've never experienced something like this could it be bad
When's the expiration date, this looks rotten? Do you know what, I don't care. Maybe it's just chunky today a little bit worried. Noooo
It's so chunky!
Dang it! Okay, so if you're wondering what's in here so far we have vanilla, coconut sugar, palm shortening, and coconut milk. Ah sorry
I haven't really been oh, that's bad. That's really bad. Okay. I already this up didn't take long
I'm supposed to use a hand mixer to mix all this up
But the problem is that I don't and make sure at my house cuz I don't know I don't bake a lot
I'm basically supposed to imitate a hand mixer with my own hand so I don't know how I'm gonna do this?
Okay, so I have a whisk and hand mixers are really really fast, so I'm gonna have to do this super fast so hold on
No! No okay, I'm a little bit, I need to be creative here
My oven is preheating okay, that's good at least something's going okay. Oh my god
I really do need a hand mixer for this, but I literally don't own a hand mixer, so I don't know what to do
I'm have to mix it from out here
This is like the most workout I've ever gotten in my life look how disgusting that looks somebody explain to me
Why this looks like chicken? I thought these were supposed to be vegan
Let me wash my hands because I'm not trying to get germs all over my cookies. I was literally the first time
I've washed my hands in like a year. I don't know if it's helping
I just need to mix as fast as I possibly can for the next 60 seconds. Keep going, I can't stop. Three, two, one
Literally so tired my arm is burning thirty more seconds
Ten nine eight
seven six
Five four three two one. Yes. Oh my god. I'm so excited right now it worked
If you're a home right now, and you're making this and you don't own a hand mixer
Don't even stress because I just did that all by myself with just my freaking hands
Usually when things make a mess that means that they're gonna be worth it add dry ingredients and mix on medium speed
I don't own a hand mixer this entire recipe revolves around a hand mixer, and I don't own a hand mixer
So like I just have to mix vigorously with my own hand and just like hope that it can imitate the machine
But that's just a lot to ask and like it's really hard
So I don't know if I'm gonna be able to do it
But I don't care two cups of almond flour down the hatchet. This bowl is way too small okay
We need to move into a bigger bowl
This is gonna work better
Perfect Frick my hands are really dirty, but I need to look at my phone
So I'm gonna mix, this as vigorously as I can for one minute
Just like I did last time one minute on the clock. Let's go okay three two one
my arm
This one's even harder than the last one
Okay, that's it. Okay, so now. I have to fold in some chocolate chips, which is the best part?
But the thing is I don't have chocolate chips
So I'm going to take a bar chocolate and like cut it up and then I'll have Chocolate Chunk cookies
So do you know what these aren't chocolate chip cookies these are Chocolate Chunk cookies, and it's actually a really big difference
So please don't make the mistake okay, so I have some vegan dark chocolate here, and I'm just gonna cut it up
I don't even know how to do this, okay
Oh
You know it would have been a lot easier to buy the chocolate chips, but I forgot so paying the price now
Do you know what this is actually kind of fun not gonna lie kind of feel like the Barefoot Contessa right now
Feeling some Gordon Ramsay vibes feeling some Bobby Flay vibes right now
This is just something that I feel like they would do
I don't know chocolate chips are so overrated everyone uses chocolate chips these days. It's like no one
Appreciates a nice chocolate chunk, so I'm really glad that I could bring it back
I mean if you're at home and you're making this consider chocolate chunks instead because I feel like this is so much more intimate
Great, I think that's about good
This dough is vegan meaning that I can eat it, and I won't get salmonella, so I'm pretty excited about it
No one can yell at me now this can make you sick suckers okay, be right back
I'm gonna clean up my workspace because it's giving me anxiety. This is literally a mess
I'm just gonna take some fat
spoonfuls and just kind of hope for the best here a pet peeve is when you're making cookies and then while they're baking they like
Spread out a bunch kind of all melt into like one big cookie
I don't know if you know what I'm talking about, but that's like my literal in life long story short
I really don't want about to happen with these I would be extremely upset if it did
I'm gonna pop these in the oven so BRB
I'm not gonna. Let it go to waste. I feel like I'm gonna vomit
Yeah
They're huge, I did not expect them to be this large, but I don't care
I'm not opposed to large servings, but also I'm not sure if they're cooked all the way through
Okay, we'll see two hours later, so I let them sit for a little bit, and they're cool now
So it's time to try it out the moment that we've all been waiting for they look like pancakes because they're so thin
But it's all about the flavors, so let's just try it out, okay
That kind of sucks you know what okay? Is it great is it the best cooking I've ever had
No, is it edible sure it's edible. I wouldn't say it's great
I wouldn't really say make these at home
Considering that these are supposed to be healthy I guess they're not that bad look at what happens when I try to pick it out
Yeah, it still tastes okay, when I make them again probably not, but at the end of the day despite all my hardships
It was overall a fun thing to make and you know what that's what life's all about
It's not it. Doesn't always need to be perfect. It. Just needs to be fun because today for me with hey
I know I've said that like eight times, but I just want to reiterate making these cookies helped relieve some of my stress
