Hey Gators! I’m sure that most of you are bored at home, so we decided to hand out some recipes for you to try. For starters, we will try and do recipes that require minimal ingredients so you won’t have to go to the store to find some one-time-use recipe. Today, we will be making cookies! Traditional chocolate chip cookies seem like a good start to our long journey of fun recipes.
