Dylan’s grandmother sent him her chocolate chip cookie recipe so that he could replicate them at college. He reads over the recipe, which says that the ingredients must be mixed, spooned onto a baking sheet, and baked for 8 minutes in a 350° oven. Dylan gets to work…mixing the ingredients then spooning the dough. Then he turns on the oven and puts the cookies in, setting a timer for 8 minutes. When the timer goes off, Dylan’s cookies are nowhere near finished. Which statement BEST explains what likely happened?
A.
Dylan didn’t preheat the oven before putting the dough in it.
B.
Dylan put too much of a liquid ingredient in the cookie dough.
C.
Dylan’s oven must have something wrong with it.
D.
Dylan did not set the timer at the correct baking time.
