Zoe is at her grandmother’s house today.

Her grandmother says, “Do you want to bake cookies with me?” Zoe is very excited.

First, they mix flour, sugar, and butter in a big bowl.

Next, Zoe makes small balls of dough and puts them on a tray.

When the cookies come out of the oven, they smell wonderful. Zoe and her grandmother eat them together.
