- Hi, my name is Lynnea, I'm nine years old,
and today, I will have two chefs competing
to make my dream dish.
- Hi, Lynnea. - Hi.
- I'm Alix.
- I'm Rie.
Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you, too.
- So, what would unicorn eat for dinner?
- She would eat maybe potato skins,
but it wouldn't be a potato.
- Okay. - Oh.
- It would be tiger fur.
It may not sound that good, but unicorns like that.
- She started off with potato skins
and I was feeling pretty good,
and then she threw in that tiger fur.
- [Lynnea] So, inside will be cheese
and then will have sweet lollipop flavored bacon on top.
- It's sweet, but it has bacon on top.
It's all over the place now.
- I love bacon. - Oh, cool, okay.
- Me too.
- Especially when it's nice and crispy.
- Oh, take notes. - Good to know.
- [Lynnea] To drink, they would have leprechaun tears.
(all talking) (laughing)
- Why are they crying?
- The leprechaun is crying because, well,
the unicorns are gonna drink their tears.
- [Both] Oh.
- [Alix] Nothing goes to waste in unicorn land.
- Leprechaun tears, super straightforward.
- The unicorn that I met, she actually lives with me now.
(gasps) and her name is Pinky Pie.
- [Both] Pinky pie!
- Yes.
Compared to a dog or a cat,
it's a lot of work to have a unicorn.
They would have this pink steak that is sweet.
It wouldn't be like a steak that we eat.
- [Rie] What is the flavor of pink?
- Strawberry.
- Is that your favorite fruit?
- Yes. - Mm, me too.
I'm trying to keep calm, but I am freaking out inside.
I do not know what I'm going to make.
- [Lynnea] This meal is served on a bed of lettuce.
- Lettuce is also sweet, or lettuce is just lettuce?
- Lettuce is just the lettuce.
- Okay.
- I always tell her she needs to eat her vegetables.
She can't just have sweet stuff all day.
- Oh, wow.
You're such a great friend.
- So, Lynnea,
do you think we can make you this unicorn meal?
- Yes.
- High five?
(groaning) (laughing)
- This chair is not big enough for me.
Alright, so here's what I'm gonna do.
For the pink steak,
I'm gonna make a blondie that's strawberry flavored.
For the potato skin,
I'm going to try to shape a rice krispie treat
and then use orange colored white chocolate
for the tiger fur.
For the leprechaun tears,
I'm gonna make a vanilla milkshake and dye it green.
- For pink steak, I'm going to make pancake,
stack them up with cream cheese frosting and strawberries.
For potato skin, I'm going to use root vegetable chips
and marshmallow covered with frosting and chocolate.
For leprechaun tears,
I'm thinking about some green matcha milkshake.
I'm going to top with cookie shaped like four-leaf clover
because that's leprechaun's lucky charm.
- Well, I hope this meal isn't too uni-corny.
(bell rings) (laughing)
- Alright, then.
I have another idea for cookie.
I got this flower heart shape,
and I can just decorate so it kinda look like clover.
- I love a good blondie.
Lynnea mentioned that she really likes strawberries
and that she also wanted a pink steak.
I felt like a strawberry blondie would be perfect
because it will have that pink color,
but it will also taste like strawberries,
which is something she really likes.
This is definitely something I would've requested
when I was nine years old.
- I like having kale smoothies, chicken alfredo,
strawberries, anything with strawberries,
just not sushi or pizza, that's disgusting.
- I'm gonna start with candied bacon.
I'm making this mixture,
brown sugar and maple syrup together,
and I'm going to brush onto the bacon.
I'm gonna just use oven method
so I don't need to worry about it.
- I'm gonna start on my rice krispie treats.
Rice krispies are great because not only do kids love them,
but they're super malleable.
My hope is that I'm gonna be able to shape my rice krispie
into a potato skin shape.
The only thing
that I'm really gonna have to think about doing
is this tiger fur.
I feel like something was off in these.
I might have messed up the ratio.
I can't believe I'm messing up rice krispie treats.
It's like the easiest thing to make.
I added in more of the Rice Krispies cereal.
This feels a little bit better to me already.
Hopefully I'm able to shape it.
- It look like potato.
- Thanks.
- I'm making pancake batter right now
'cause you wanna rest the batter at least 30 minutes.
I was talking and I forgot how many flour I added,
so I'm gonna just do it again.
I don't wanna risk it. - Don't do it again, Rie,
just go with it, just go with it.
- [Rie] I'm adding pink food coloring.
I like this color, it's like dreamy unicorn color.
- So, now I'm gonna make my candied bacon.
I think mine is a little bit simpler than hers.
I'm just going to do brown sugar and cinnamon
and coat that in bacon and bake it.
It'll taste good either way.
- My bacon is done in the oven.
It's still a little bit not crispy as I want it,
and I just tasted, it's not as sweet I want it.
So, I'm gonna just chop it up
and coat with more brown sugar.
So, my cookies in the oven.
While I'm waiting,
I'm going to make royal icing so I can decorate the cookie.
I want to dye it with green
because that is going to be on leprechaun tears drink.
Alright, so my cookies spreaded completely.
I'm gonna just cool it and think of something else.
- My bacon was bakin' for a long time
and it still didn't really get that crispy,
but I don't want it to burn,
so I might just have to go with it.
I hope she forgot that she likes crispy bacon.
I also pulled out my blondies.
They definitely got a little brownie.
I'm just gonna have to try to trim the edges
into the shape of a steak,
which is something I have never done before.
It's a little bit trickier than I thought it was gonna be,
cutting this blondie into the steak shape.
It's a little crumbly in texture,
but I'm just trying to go with it.
Lookin' at the inside, that's pink.
I'm happy with that.
Mm!
So, now for my grill marks.
Woo, we did it!
I think that looks pretty good.
- I still didn't know what I was doing,
and I just wanted to make look like
something like a tiger fur.
So, I came up with skewers,
three marshmallow together and stick the pretzel.
This is gonna be my tiger.
I was making sure it was orange, I thought it was yellow.
Oh, it was orange.
I don't like using food color,
but turns out kids love color, so my heart a little aches,
but I have to do for to win.
It's kind of like tiger, tiger on skewers.
- I think the pink steak is gonna be the hardest
and also the tiger fur potato skins.
I don't know how they're gonna do that,
but hopefully it'll be good.
- I've basically made all the components.
Now, I just need to decorate.
So, I've melted down my chocolates.
I am going to be dying my white chocolate orange.
I'm gonna try to tip my baked potato.
I'm just kinda playin' around
trying to get some kind of fur texture.
I hope I earn my tiger stripes.
(bell rings)
Does that look like a tiger?
- Yeah, it's like a tiger and a porcupine's child.
- Well, that's alright, I guess.
- I've never done pancake before,
but what I'm trying to do is make a steak shape pancake.
I'm just hoping my hand won't be shaky.
- That's like hoping the sky won't be blue, Rie.
- [Rie] I'm cooking lower temperature
and hoping the color doesn't turn brown.
Yes, pink!
- So, I picked out this glass
to use for my leprechaun tear milkshake
because I feel it was kinda cute and leprechaun-y.
I don't know what that means, but (chuckles).
What I'm gonna try to do
is pipe around the edge of the glass
with this green white chocolate
to make a sort of teardrop shape.
I have some edible gold glitter,
and I'm going to try to get this on here
'cause every leprechaun needs its pot of gold.
That worked.
I got some stuff in your pancake.
- What?
You sabotage me!
Okay, so my pancake is almost done.
I'm going to start decorating.
I'm going to top with the cream cheese frosting
and layer the pancake.
She also asked for bed of lettuce,
but I don't think it's gonna taste good
if I put lettuce underneath of the cake.
So, I will try to incorporate that idea,
but still figure it out.
- That reminds me...
She asked for lettuce, I'm gonna give her lettuce.
- My interpretation of potato skin is the potato chips.
I'm going to put underneath and sprinkle on top,
and don't forget the bacon bits.
- Milkshakes are super simple,
so I'm just gonna put in some ice cream, some milk,
and then a little bit of green food dye,
and that should do it.
(buzzing)
So, I'm gonna put a little bit more
of that gold dust on top.
(bells ringing) For good luck.
- I'm going to make a leprechaun tears milkshake
with matcha ice cream,
and I think I'm gonna add some white chocolate
so it doesn't taste like a lot of matcha flavor.
- Alright, once again! - Yeah.
- Nice job.
I guess it's time to trot on over to unicorn land.
- Okay. (laughing)
- I'm actually super happy with how my dish turned out.
Everything looks pretty accurate to the picture,
and I also think it's gonna taste pretty great.
- Although my dish looks pretty cool,
my tiger fur looks pretty awesome,
and in my mind, that's what unicorn would eat.
- Looks pretty much exactly the same.
It looks amazing.
This is delicious.
It's very sweet, like I said.
I love the chocolate syrup.
What did they put on here to make this sweet?
This tastes really good.
It tastes like syrup.
Yes.
Looks beautiful.
Tastes just like leprechaun tears.
I mean, if you look at the drawing
and then you look at this, you can't tell the difference.
- She likes it, she likes it!
- Speechless.
This looks amazing.
I love how it tastes,
it's just that this doesn't really look
like the potato skin that I drew.
This pink steak kinda looks like pancakes
instead of a steak.
Let me go ahead and try this.
Delicious, I love it.
I love how the strawberries taste,
just everything on this is just delicious.
It's very tasty, but again,
I don't see a cookie in my drawing.
Leprechaun tears, but no cookie.
Mm, that's...
I'm getting a tea and a milkshake in one drink.
It's really delicious.
Everything on this plate is just amazing.
I did not see this coming.
- So, it's time to decide. - Yeah.
- Which meal do you think a unicorn would eat for dinner?
- First of all, I would like to know whose dish was whose.
- We aren't gonna tell you. (laughing)
- The lucky winner is the one with the chocolate syrup
and the...
(squealing) (laughing)
- Can I have a hug?
I can't believe I pulled this off.
I'm shook.
- I think Alix won because
mine's a little bit abstract, I think.
- Chef Alix, congratulations.
- Thank you! (clapping)
I love it.
I'm gonna hang it up on my wall.
Just like a unicorn only has one horn,
there can only be one winner in this competition,
and I'm glad it's me.
(jazzy music)
