Oh no! Are all the holiday preparations getting you down?? Don’t fret, Nancy’s team will help you get your baking done in no time at all! You will go home with ten dozen cookies in all. In this hands-on class you will be working in pairs. You will be provided with cookie dough and everything you need to form, trim, and decorate the cookies. Your cookies will be baked for you by Nancy’s team in large commercial ovens. Hairnets and gloves will be provided, but bring your own apron if you like. And most important, don’t forget to bring containers to carry home your ten dozen treats. Please arrive on time and plan on staying the full three hours, which includes assisting with clean-up at the end of class.
Due to safety restrictions, and out of respect for the adult attendees, no children are allowed in or near the class. If you cannot find child care you may send someone in your place. Please be respectful to others; if you are ill, you may find someone to take your place. Cookies will not be provided for no-shows. There will be a $20 food supply fee payable to the instructor in class. We are unable to accommodate nut allergies in this class. This is an adult class only please, 18 and older.
