Toll house cookie recipe5/15/2023 ![]() We ended up making not only versions with and without nuts from the bag (we used walnuts), but additional M&M® and Pecan Turtle variants (included in the recipe section below). The preparation and baking process proved to be as simple as expected, in fact it was easy enough for our three year old to help. Additionally, for whatever reason, I never noticed that NESTLÉ® offers two variations of the recipe on the bag with slight tweaks to make the cookies with and without nuts. Most experienced bakers would understand terminology like, “cream butter,” but the recipe instead uses more layman’s style language like, “beat until creamy.” I think this is a nice touch, and really recognizes that the author knows their audience. Boom! You’ve got some pretty tasty cookies! However, I do really appreciate the language NESTLÉ® uses here. Preheat your oven, beat your sugar and butter, add eggs, add the dry stuff, drop on a sheet and bake. (*pun intended).įor the most part this is an extremely straightforward chocolate chip cookie recipe. Though I’ve definitely eaten and baked this recipe dozens* of times there were still a few pleasant surprises when we approached it with a more critical eye. I don’t know if the Original NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe was the first “Back of the Box” Recipe, but it’s almost certainly the most popular. When we started this series, we immediately knew what the first recipe had to be. We hope you enjoy this series, and if you have any recipes you’d like us to try from the back of a box, bottle, can, jar or bag, just let us know! We want to review the recipes as written, so I’ll be the one cooking and taking notes here, but Phi will share her thoughts on how she would tweak a given recipe or provide alternatives to various ingredients or methods. She has definitely rescued me from some mis-prints, but I can also be a bit slow as I methodically cook something step-by-step, much to her frustration. “Phi knows what she’s doing in the kitchen and will often improvise, while I, on the other hand, am more of a “by the numbers” or “by the recipe, exactly” kind of cook. Nick will be the one doing the cooking <-WHOA! The rest of the post are his words, so here goes! ![]() A different photography style, a different voice. Whenever I share Back of the Box Reviews, it will be a collaboration between Nick and I. Our eldest Ben and his younger twin brother and sister, Freddie and Frankie. We’ll share our own thoughts, but the final judgement will of course come from our 3 kids, the taste testers. It will be a place to catalog our journey through the grocery aisles and kitchen to answer the question above. So we decided to start a series here on called Back of the Box Reviews. We’ve been talking about trying different back of the box/bag/can/container/etc. Nick and I always wondered aloud to each other if some of these recipes were any good.

Baby sloth pictures5/15/2023 ![]() Yeah, not just the baby sloths, but sloths, in general, are excellent swimmers. Baby sloths that are at least two months old are given potty training by the adults. They then poop into this hole and uses their tail to cover the hole with sand. A sloth actually does something called a poop dance, where they stand upright and use their prehensile tail to dig a hole in the ground. So the mommy sloth has to teach the Junior how it has to be done. If you ever witness a sloth pooping, you can see their stomach shrinking and the struggle they face to poop.įor a sloth, pooping is the riskiest thing they have to do because that’s virtually the only time they come down from the tree they live in. It is rather interesting to note that the poop of a healthy sloth weighs almost one-third of its body weight. Though sloths may look dirty because of the fur on their body that resembles coconut fiber, they do have bathroom manners.īut unlike most animals, pooping is an ordeal for sloths in general, and hence they do it only once a week. This will give the baby’s digestive system enough time to start functioning correctly.īaby sloths are potty trained by their mothers Which is the babies are only made to lick the leaves that have been adequately chewed by the mothers. In general, sloths have an inefficient digestive system that it takes almost a month to at least partially digest a leaf that it eats. These babies will be allowed to lick the leaves that are chewed adequately by the mother. So the milk produced my mommy sloths will also be rich in proteins while having a lower fat content.īy the end of two months, the babies will be fed leaves by their mother but not as a whole. Sloths are herbivorous animals that acquire the required energy from mature leaves that are rich in proteins. These baby sloths survive solely on their mother’s milk for the first two months. This is why, for the first 12 months after birth, they remain snuggled on the mother’s chest. This comes handy for a baby who, for the most of the first 12 months after birth, remains snuggled up on the mother’s chest.Īll the babies have to do is to suckle the milk as it is produced.īaby sloths start eating leaves when they are two months oldĪs said earlier, sloths are mammals that are always in an energy-saving mode, and owing to these reasons it takes the babies almost 3 to 4 years to be independent. So instead of storing milk, a female sloth will produce it drop by drop throughout the day. When it comes to an adult sloth, storing milk is an energy-consuming process, and hence it is a luxury they cannot afford. That is the case with the babies too, and owing to these reasons, it takes them a considerably longer duration to be adults.įor the first 12 months after their birth, they are wholly dependent on their mothers and spend most of this duration, snuggled on the mother’s chest, suckling up their milk. Sloths are mammals that have adapted to a lifestyle that requires burning very low levels of calories. They also have strong ligaments on their limbs like an adult sloth, that help them easily maneuver through the branches if needed.Ī baby sloth snuggles on the mother’s chest for the first 12 months Similarly, a baby sloth can climb trees within a few hours after its birth. As mentioned earlier, the babies have an innate tendency to grip tightly to their mothers. These baby sloths are born with furry skin, open eyes, and they weigh only around 10 ounces at the time of birth.īut that being said, it is rather interesting to note that these babies are capable of tightly gripping on to their mother’s minutes after they are born. Sloths have a gestation period of 11.5 months, and they give birth only one offspring a year. So one can imagine how difficult pregnancy, delivery, and taking care of a baby would be! If you didn’t know, sloths poop only once in a week, and that itself is an arduous task to them. Owing to this, they are always low on energy and hence are always in an energy-saving mode. Their laziness actually owes to their weak digestive system that almost takes two months to digest a couple of leaves! If you have seen an adult sloth, you might understand how lazy they are. ![]() D d 5e homebrew classes healer5/15/2023 ![]() ![]() or maybe just your hunger for killing (possibly literally) has empowered you, so that you can attack multiple times at once.
