Chef Angela will share two simple and straightforward recipes that kids can prepare while parents assist with the oven. Little bakers will gain confidence in the kitchen and discover how baking cookies can bring just as much pleasure as eating them!

The class is scheduled for Friday, February 12^th, 2021.   Early bird registration starts 10/9 at https://www.cozymeal.com/online-cooking-class/14378/willow-springs-fundraising-cookies-for-kids.  Be sure to mark your calendars (and save a cookie for the PTA)!
