  1. I would’ve made this, but two things. One, I absolutely suck at baking and two, this looks like a super long tutorial and it would bore me.

    1. Haha! This is a pretty complicated one. You should try a simple one to start out and work your way up. Maybe the peanut butter cookies or chocolate chip cookies to start! Those are simple. Let me know if you need and help or tips on anything! Good luck.
