Project: Chef for a Day
Imagine you are the pastry chef at your favorite restaurant. The manager has just told you that you have a large crowd coming in for lunch tomorrow and you need to prepare. This project includes a recipe for chocolate chip cookies. You are expecting 60 people, but the recipe does not serve that many people, so you will need to adjust the ingredients so there will be enough.
Chocolate Chip Cookies (makes 12 servings)
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
1 ¾ cup chocolate chips
Read each question below carefully and provide complete answers.
1. This recipe serves 12 people, but you need to serve 60 people. What number will you need to multiply the amount of each ingredient by to adjust the recipe? How did you determine this number?
2. Show the steps involved in finding out how much flour you will need to make 60 servings of chocolate chip cookies, as if you were teaching someone how to multiply with fractions. Please do not use decimals in your work or in your final answer.
3. Show the steps involved in finding out how much baking soda you will need to make 60 servings of chocolate chip cookies, as if you were teaching someone how to multiply with fractions. Please do not use decimals in your work or in your final answer.
4. Rewrite the rest of the chocolate chip cookie recipe for 60 servings. Be sure to show your work for each ingredient and express each amount as a fraction.
_____teaspoons salt
_____cups sugar
_____eggs
tablespoons milk
_____ cups chocolate chips
5. How many more eggs do you need for 60 servings than you need for 12 servings? How did you obtain this number?
6. If you wanted to make exactly 78 servings of chocolate chip cookies, what number would you need to multiply the original amount of each ingredient by to adjust the recipe? How did you determine this number?
7. Consider you make a mistake with the salt and multiply wrong which adds more salt then needed. Your cupcakes might not taste the greatest. Another mistake might be you incorrectly find the wrong amount to make. You make too little or not enough. What we do after the mistake is the important part. These mistakes are really not a big deal but in some instance in life we make bigger mistakes that weigh heavy on us. God is a loving and forgiving God. Isaiah 41:10 Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Reflect on a time when you made a mistake. It can be a big mistake, a small mistake, or somewhere in between. Please don’t go into specifics but talk about how you handled the situation with God’s help and how you felt after. Please write a paragraph of at least 5 sentences.
