Mat Size: 16.5’’ x 11’’

Silicone mats have been around for a while, they really are one of the best inventions for the kitchen. They replace the need for parchment paper, and are designed to help the baker (amateur or pro) make the perfect cookies, cakes, pastries and other baked items. But it helps with more than just cookies! You can also use it for pizza dough, rolls, baked veggies (potatoes with a touch of olive oil and herbs, yummy!), candies, and almost anything you would bake on a cookie sheet. They are also reusable, and can last a lifetime!

This mat has a printed design that helps even more than a basic non-printed mat. Macaroons for example, need to be spaced perfectly in order for them too cook evenly and so they don't touch each other. 

In order to test this, we had to make cookies. *grins* So, chocolate chip cookies it is! See below for the awesome results. 

Line them up for perfect cookies.

Ok, we may have needed more flour, haha! But those are perfect to me, they don't stick to the mat and are perfectly brown. NOMNOMNOM! 

Why not get yourself one? Or two! I think I need more of them, as well!

Quaker Review - Oatmeal Squares Cereal & Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

 

Quaker Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies     &    Quaker Oatmeal Squares Cereal

First up, the cookies. They taste good, the peanut flavor is not over powering at all. I don't really taste much oatmeal, although I notice that it is there, and the cookies are kinda dry. 

 *note* The package does say "crispy cookies"...so that may account for the dryness. 

The cereal...Oatmeal Squares. These are similar to a shredded wheat type cereal, but these are more dense. They soak up the milk really well, though! There is a hint of brown sugar, which adds just a tiny touch of sweetness. It really is just a HINT, as this cereal has very little flavor over the oatmeal. 

They are good, if you like shredded wheat type cereals, but are rather plain.
