FSU Cooks up Some Mix and Bake Fun:  Chocolate Chip Cookies

Friday, September 30th at 3:30 pm

Register here!

Did you know there is a connection between chocolate chip cookies and FSU?  Ruth Wakefield, the inventor of Tollhouse Cookies, graduated from Framingham State Normal School Department of Household Arts in 1924.  Let’s come together as a community to honor this connection by baking up a batch of Ruth’s cookies! 

Join us for some fun as we learn about the science behind the ingredients, bake up a batch of delicious cookies, and of course, enjoy some cookies and milk!


FSU Cooks from Scraps to Scrumptious:  Focaccia Art with Food Scraps!

Friday, October 28th at 3:30 pm

Register here!

The USDA estimates that 31% of food is wasted, so let’s do our part to reduce this amount by using scraps and leftovers from our food labs to bake up a batch of surprisingly fast focaccia. Join us as we learn about food waste, bake up some delicious focaccia, and taste a piece or two or three!


Mix and Bake to Give and Take:  Blue Ribbon Winner Peanut Clusters!

Friday, December 9th at 3:30

Register here!

'Tis the season to celebrate the end of the semester.  Join us to mix and bake some peanut clusters.  This effortless candy is great to pack up and share or nibble on throughout the winter break, but fair warning, it’s hard to eat just one!  Come have some fun as we let the secret out of the bag for these simple treats, mix up a batch of delicious and award-winning (blue ribbon at the Pima County Fair) treats, and of course, taste a cluster or two!
