Solution
| Me | Hey, I heard you're craving something tasty. How about we bake some chocolate chip cookies? |
| Sister | That sounds great! But, I've never made them before. Is it hard? |
| Me | Not at all! It's pretty simple. First, you need to gather the ingredients. Do you want to write them down? |
| Sister | Yes, let me get a pen. |
| Me | You'll need 1 cup of softened butter, 1 cup of white sugar, 1 cup of packed brown sugar, 2 eggs, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 2 teaspoons of hot water, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 2 cups of chocolate chips. |
| Sister | Got it. What's next? |
| Me | Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While it's heating, take a large bowl and cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Then beat in the eggs one at a time, and stir in the vanilla. Dissolve baking soda in hot water and add to the batter along with salt. Finally, stir in flour and chocolate chips. |
| Sister | Okay, I can do that. Then do I just bake it? |
| Me | Almost. Use a small spoon to drop spoonfuls of the dough onto ungreased baking sheets. |
| Sister | How long do they bake? |
| Me | Bake them for about 10 minutes, or until the edges are nicely browned. It's important not to overbake them if you want them chewy. |
| Sister | That sounds easy enough. What do I do after they're baked? |
| Me | Let them cool for a couple of minutes on the baking sheets before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. |
| Sister | That's it? Then we can eat them? |
| Me | That's it! You'll have delicious homemade chocolate chip cookies. |
| Sister | Yay! Thanks for the recipe. I'm going to try making them right now. |
| Me | You're welcome! Call me if you need any help. Enjoy your baking! |

Vitamins are either fat-soluble (A, D, E, K) or water-soluble (B vitamins, including niacin, folic acid and riboflavin, and vitamin C).

Vitamin A is essential for the eyes, skin, hair, and bones; the B vitamins help enzymes to function; C is essential for the formation of collagen; D helps the body absorb calcium; E prevents cell damage, and K helps blood clotting. Most vitamins cannot be produced by the body and so must be obtained directly from food.
