Chronos, that's a reasonable assessment, but I would have to disagree with your conclusion. Maybe you a spending too much time in space
His conclusion meant no offense to Evo - actually he said she was perfect

Chronos is only making an attempt to
butter me up because he knows I am baking a (seemingly endless) box of cookies for him.
Let's see.. flour, eggs, milk, vanilla, baking soda, sugar, chocolate chips... did I get everything? I don't know for sure because this recipe was
REALLY hard to follow!
The Engineer's Recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies*
1.) 532.35 cm3 gluten
2.) 4.9 cm3 NaHCO3
3.) 4.9 cm3 refined halite
4.) 236.6 cm3 partially hydrogenated tallow
triglyceride
5.) 177.45 cm3 crystalline C12H22O11
6.) 177.45 cm3 unrefined C12H22O11
7.) 4.9 cm3 methyl ether of protocatechuic
aldehyde
8.) Two calcium carbonate-encapsulated avian
albumen-coated protein
9.) 473.2 cm3 theobroma cacao
10.) 236.6 cm3 de-encapsulated legume meats
(sieve size #10)
Directions:
To a 2-L jacketed round reactor vessel
(reactor #1) with an overall heat transfer
coefficient of about 100 Btu/F-ft2-hr,
add ingredients one, two and three with
constant agitation. In a second 2-L reactor
vessel with a radial flow impeller
operating at 100 rpm, add ingredients four,
five, six, and seven until the mixture is
homogenous. To reactor #2, add ingredient
eight, followed by three equal volumes of the
homogenous mixture in reactor #1.
Additionally, add ingredient nine and ten
slowly, with constant agitation. Care must be
taken at this point in the reaction to
control any temperature rise that may be the
result of an exothermic reaction.
Using a screw extruder attached to a #4
nodulizer, place the mixture piece-meal on a
316SS sheet (300 x 600 mm). Heat in a 460K
oven for a period of time that is in
agreement with Frank & Johnston's first
order rate expression (see JACOS, 21, 55),or
until golden brown. Once the reaction is
complete, place the sheet on a 25C heat-
transfer table, allowing the product to come
to thermal equilibrium. Enjoy!
