Chương 69: Chapter 68 : Let's make some cookies.
The royal chefs were surprised when Nectar appeared in the kitchen. Since she was empress, there were special chefs only for her and Eros. They had a separate block but it was rare for the palace inhabitants to come here and they only came to complain but that was even rarer.
Nectar had asked Nathaniel's teacher and the chief chef to borrow her his working space for her little project. They'd being given aprons but Nectar rejected hers, " It'll get in the way ".
They had a big deep bowl in front of them. Tera tried to stop Nectar from picking it, " You don't have to do it yourself your majesty, we can do it for you ". Nectar shook her head, " It's not the same and I wanna join in the fun too ".
" Nate, where's the flour "? Nathaniel nodded and dragged out half a bag of flour from a cabinet, Nectar turned to pick out a cup " We'll mix this together with some salt ". But Jewlica had other ideas as she poured the contents into the bowl and on all of them with it.
They were all coughing and covered in flour, as the powder disappeared " I guess we'll make a lot then ". Nectar scooped out five cups of flour, June added in a tablespoon of salt and some baking soda and let Jewlica use her hands to mash it up, leaving fingerprints in the flour.
Jewlica looked very serious as she clumped them together and made patterns in the bowl. Nectar then picked another bowl, " Where's the butter and all the kinds of sugar "?
Nate pointed to a top cabinet and Fauna brought them down. Nectar mixed the white, light and dark sugars together, " Nothing like too sweet when making treats ". She hands it to Mario to mix who seemed confused by her decision, " Why do I have to do it "?
Nectar shrugged, handing him a whisk " I trust you can handle it and you like sweets the least ". Mario seemed convinced and began mixing. Nectar picked out three large eggs, handing them to Nathaniel, " Augie, take the butter ".
August collected the two containers of fresh warm butter, standing eagerly by " Cookie take over the sugar ". Cookie quickly took over and Nectar began ransacking the cabinets, " Pour the butter in and mix it all in ".
August happily poured the half melted butter into the mixture when Nectar spoke, " Wait, did you wash your hands "? They all nodded and they all watched as Nichole and August sat on the counter mixing it together.
Nectar seemed to have found what she was looking for, " Reli, could you help Nate crack the eggs "? Reli nodded, rolling up her sleeves " You can count on me sister ". Though clumsy, there were very few pieces of egg shell in it and Nectar agreed, " Good enough, and even gives it a little crunch too ".
Fauna took over and quickly whisked the eggs and poured them in. Nichole and June squealed excitedly as the eggs entered the batter and touched their hands. Nectar handed the vanilla stick she found to Nathaniel, " We need this opened immediately chef ".
Nathaniel nodded seriously and cut it open under Reli's supervision. Reli helped him scrape it into the sticky batter that they we're taking turns to hand mix.
Nectar frowned as she turned around, facing them " No chocolate chips x? Nathaniel had no idea what that was or if they had it and shook his head. Nectar brightened like she had an idea, " need a pot, some cocoa powder, a little milk and sugar ".
Nathaniel nodded and quickly brought out all the things she requested for. There were no blazers here so they had to do it manually. Nectar hummed to herself as she put in a little milk allowing it to boil.
She let Mario pour in the cocoa while Jewlica poured in some sugar and Nichole some salt and she mixed. She mixed till it was really smooth and looked creamy. Jewlica nearly dipped her hand in it but Nectar swatted her hand away, " Not now oh be able to lump this up.
Reli shivered slightly as she dipped her fingers in it. Mario happily poured the dry ingredients in, throwing some of it at Nichole and Nectar.
Tera called her attention over to the chocolate drops and Nectar was satisfied with the cute little things [ Almost too cute to eat ] and froze them over making them hard.
Cookie and Fauna scooped in handfuls of the drops into the batter till they felt it was enough. Then Nectar took the bowl, allowing Jewlica to clap some flour on the table and turns the bowl over.
Covering her hands in flour as well, she began kneading the dough. The others stood watching silently, the only sound the flipping of the dough as she folded it. Nectar rolled it into a long strip and cut it into different sizes handing them out.
" Do you have shaped cutters in here "? Though Nathaniel had no idea what that was, he felt he had a substitute. He brought out small different sized tins usually used to bake cakes.
Nectar rolled hers out till it was flat but not too flat or too thick and picked a heart shaped one, pressing it in. The others watched in amazement as she brought out the now heart shaped cookie.
The others scrambled for the small baking tins as they rolled out their dough. Nathaniel brought out flat baking pans, handing them out.
Cookie's were cut like musical notes. Tera and Fauna's like hearts and Reli's like shields. Jewlica and August's were shaped like flowers, Nathaniel like a chef's hat and Nicole's like a butterfly. Mario's like a hammer and Nectar's like a star.
They all excitedly put them on the trays and began cleaning up their mess, well liking the pots and spoons clean. When someone suddenly barged into the kitchen making them all pause mid lick.

Kik1_Yijaa As the title implied, we made a few treats. Pity we can't join Nectar and the rest. It's a real recipe for sugar cookies, just a big batch of them.
If you ever feel the urge to make some cookies, please share your pics and recipes with me on my wall or instagram. But for now, we'll just imagine eating cookies with Nectar ಥ⌣ಥ
