Session 3: Fantastic Festive Foods

In this morning's SHINE session we began our celebrations in the build-up to Christmas. The task for the girls today was to make Christmas biscuits. Mrs Hutchins demonstrated to the girls how to use a food processor and then showed them the ingredients and method to make the biscuits. The girls worked in pairs and some budding cooks got underway with making the biscuit dough. They were able to use a range of biscuit cutters to create Christmas shaped biscuits. 

The smell of cinnamon and biscuits cooking was wonderful and the girls thoroughly enjoyed seeing their end product. After learning about the origins of the traditional Christmas lunch, the girls placed their biscuits in festive boxes to take home and share with their families. There are certainly some strong contenders for The Great British Bake Off in a few years time!

Thank you, Mrs Hutchins, for a wonderful morning.

Our next SHINE session is on Saturday 15th December.  As this is our last session before Christmas, do wear something festive!
