"The American Cookies course was a delightful experience! The instructor was engaging and knowledgeable, guiding us through the process of making classic cookies like chocolate chip and oatmeal raisin. The hands-on sessions allowed us to practice techniques that made a real difference in texture and flavor. I loved the variety of recipes and the opportunity to customize our cookies.
