Dr. B’s Big Soft Ginger Cookies, modified from Better Homes and Gardens magazine
I found this recipe many years ago, and I make them all the time because the cookies are so delicious! They are big and soft and gingery, just like their name! CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: The pure substances are baking soda (NaHCO3), salt (NaCl), and sugar (C12H22O11). The ingredients that are homogeneous mixtures are all-purpose flour, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, butter, and molasses. The fully mixed batter is also a homogeneous mixture. The heterogeneous mixtures are the egg, the batter before it is mixed, and the cookies after they are finished baking. The butter warming up after it is taken out of the refrigerator, and the dough being formed into balls are both physical changes. The puffing up of the cookies and the change in color on the bottom of the cookies as they bake both indicate that chemical changes are taking place. NUTRITION INFORMATION PER COOKIE: 142 calories, 2 g protein, 21 g carbohydrates, 6 g fat, 11 mg cholesterol, 118 mg sodium, 56 mg potassium Submitted by: "Dr. B."

It is really nice because we only get it once a year and it is special because my family can enjoy it together. It is juicy, sweet, and delicious! CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: In addition to the pure substance, sugar, there are mixtures (shown below in ingredients). The thin-sliced apple pie slices are a heterogeneous mixture and so is the pie itself once it is done. Most of the ingredients are homogeneous mixtures; flour, cinnamon, allspice, and the pie crust. The apples being sliced into smaller pieces is a physical change and so is all of the dry ingredients being mixed together. The pie puffing up in the oven is an indication that a chemical change is taking place. Also, the fact that the apples turn dark brown once heated, is a clue that a chemical change has occurred.

Tyler C's Goofy Cake Modified from Jennifer C's Recipie
This recipe is very important to me and my family because it doesn't use Eggs or Milk because when I was little, my sister and I had an allergy to dairy products. Since this recipe had no Milk or Eggs my sister and I called it Goofy Cake and that’s what we called it ever since. Some of the ingredients are pure substances such as, Baking Soda, and Sugar. Some of them are homogeneous mixtures such as Cocoa, and Flour. Also, there are no heterogeneous mixtures in this recipe, until you add all of your ingredients in a bowl and don’t mix. Other than that there are no heterogeneous mixtures. When you are done with baking it, you can not see any different things so there is no heterogeneous mixtures throughout this whole baking process. Once you are done baking, and you add frosting then the frosted cake is a heterogeneous mixture, which makes that two heterogeneous mixtures in my recipe. Some physical changes that you can find out is that when you put all of the ingredients into a bowl and mix them together they are all the same thing but just mixed with something else, also when it is done baking and when you cut it, it is also a physical change. Some clues that a chemical change has occurred is when the batter rises, and also when the color turns into a dark brown instead of a light brown. Submitted by: "Tyler C"

A physical change is when you put it in the refrigerator after you cook it and it gets hard from the cold. Another physical change is when all of the ingredients get mixed together. A chemical change is when the somewhat liquid mixture gets firm in the oven after it cooks. One last chemical change is when the color of the pie crust turns golden brown .

Bridget R.’s Traditional Irish Soda Bread, modified from food. com
I chose to make Irish Soda bread because it is a tradition for me and my family to make it every year around the fall and winter time, since my grandparents immigrated from northern Ireland and it is like a memory for my grandparents from back in the “good ol days.” Every year around fall my grandmother or my mother makes this type of bread for my whole family to celebrate our heritage. A heterogeneous mixture in the making of the Irish bread is when you add the eggs and the sour cream to the dry ingredients, because the difference between the ingredients can be seen.

Hope B’s Delicious Banana bread
My family and I always make this recipe whenever we want a treat. I can remember helping my mom make it in the kitchen, ever since I was really young! Delicious definitely suits this recipe! CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: In addition to the pure substances and mixtures shown below, the unmixed batter, the batter after the chocolate chips are sprinkled on the bread, and the finished bread, is all heterogeneous mixtures. The batter being poured and shaped into the loaf pan, is a physical change. Another change for physical, is how the batter looks after it's mixed together, the appearance looks more fine and liquidy. The rise of the bread proves an example of a chemical change. Another physical change is, how the chocolate chips spread because of the heat in the oven. Submitted by: "Hope B"
Kelly B’s Cheesy Bacon Cauliflower Bites, modified from WWW.savorylotus.com
I found this recipe on a piece of paper, my great grandma, who passed it down to my grandma, and she passed it down to me. I make them all the time because they are so delicious! They are just about bursting with a bacony flavor in a crispy little muffin. I chose this recipe because I think that people should try bacon and cauliflower together more often. CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: In addition to the pure substance and mixtures shown below, the cauliflower mixture, the batter after the rest of the ingredients are added, and the finished muffins are all heterogeneous mixtures. The butter warming up after it is taken out of the refrigerator, and the ”batter” being formed into little circle shapes due to the pan are both physical changes. The muffins rising up in the oven and the smell of the cooked muffins, and the muffins turning golden brown are all clues to chemical changes.

When the flour and milk mixture gets thicker when you heat it, that is a sign of a chemical change. Submitted by: "Angela M"
Ally P’s Apricot Chicken , modified from food.com
My family has been making Apricot Chicken for 35-40 years. Also, my family makes it with RED russian dressing when most people make it with regular russian dressing (which makes it not as rich but still good) or thousand island. CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: Along with the pure substances and the hetero/homogeneous mixture shown below there are also chemical changes (clues), and physical changes involved in this recipe. Two physical changes would be when you are mixing the apricot preserves with the other ingredients you are separating the preserves into smaller pieces. Another physical change would be the mixture “warming” up in the oven. These are physical changes because there is NOT a new substance being formed. Also in the recipe there are chemical changes that include...the browning of the sauce on the top of the pan, along with the safely locked away (“smell”) within individual cells in the garlic, but as you cut or grate the garlic, they get exposed to each other, where they end up reacting, with the aid of enzymes... this creates the sometime unbearable smell.

Tyler.G’s Chicken Noodle Soup , Modified from My Da
I don't know where the recipe came from. It’s just chicken noodle soup. My dad makes it sometimes, and it tastes really good, and it’s made with lots of love . CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: The chicken and the celery,carrots,onions,broth,egg and noodles warming up after it’s heated in the pot, this is physical change. Another physical change is the chicken further separating once in the pot. My first chemical change is the change the plants had to make so they had the energy to make the vegetables (photosynthesis). My second chemical change is what will be going on in the bodies of anyone who eats my soup (digestion), The cellulose in the carrot’s indigestible so it is fiber and will help “flush out your system”.

Lilah’s Magical Bars from Great Grandma Reich
I found this recipe in one of my family’s many cook books. These are delicious and so easy to make! CHEMISTRY INFORMATION:In addition to the pure substances and mixtures shown below,the bars when they are done are in layers, making them a heterogenous mixture. Another heterogeneous mixture is the butter once it is melted , you can see the separation. You can kind of see different shades of yellow that allow you to see the different materials. All the ingredients individually in the actual bars are homogeneous mixtures. The only pure substance in this recipe is the water you use to wash your hands before you start. Physical changes that happen in this recipe are the bars warming up in oven, and the chocolate chips melting. Chemical changes that occur are the coconut browning up, and the graham cracker crust browning and getting crunchy. Submitted by: "Lilah H"

Alexis P’s Man in a Raft Modified from Grandma Tex
The recipe is called Man in a raft, and contains eggs, bread, butter, salt and ketchup is optional. First, all homogeneous mixtures are butter and ketchup because that is all you can see. Next, heterogeneous mixtures are the bread and egg because on the bread you can see the crust and the white and on the egg you have the yolk and the egg white. Also, a pure substance is the salt because the salt (NaCl) is one kind of particle. In conclusion, my physical changes would be putting the salt on the egg and taking the circle out of the bread, and a chemical change would be when you cook the bread it turns brown and that is a sign of burning but you stop it before it completely burns, and when you cook the egg, it goes from a liquid to a solid.

Armenda’s chicken parm
When my grandpa came to the United States, the only food word he knew how to order was chicken parm. He was 16 years old. For about a year, he only ate chicken parm for lunch and dinner, until he learned the language. Chicken parm carried to the family for many years. It's still his favorite food. After he ate chicken parm for one year, he got sick of chicken parm, so he asked his friend what else to order. So he said turkey and cheese, and the waitress came over. She said, "Sir, what are you going to have today?" He said turkey and cheese. She asked if he wanted white bread or rye bread, and he answered turkey and cheese. She said, "God dang, do you want white bread or rye bread?" so he said "chicken parm." And this is a true story! Submitted by: "Armenda R"
Jack R's Aunt Elsie's Biscottis from her mom's cookbook
This recipe is special because it was brought over from Italy with grandma’s mom when she was a young girl. We normally have them on almost every holiday that we have off from school.

Thomas B-H’s Kitty Buns/Lussekatter, modified from GGR’s recipe
This recipe is my Great Grandma Ruby’s own recipe for kitty buns, and it is a great recipe! They are very cardamom-y, and very easy to make. They are a great winter treat with a mug of tea, coffee or hot cocoa. This recipe also has plenty of examples of physical change. CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: One example of a physical change in this recipe is the melting of the butter, because it is still butter, but in a different form. Another example of a physical change is kneading the dough, because it isn’t becoming or producing a new substance, it’s just getting pressed down and stretched out. Along with physical changes in this recipe, there are chemical changes evident in the recipe, as the golden-browning of the kitty buns and the rising of the dough both show that a new substance is being produced.

Jaclyn W’s ultimate pancakes from the back of a Bisquick box
This recipe has been around for a while, However me and my friend olivia recently found it on the back of a bisquick box and decided to make a “cooking show” on us making them. They have alot more ingredients than usual pancakes but they have a much better taste. My recipe includes bisquick, sugar, milk, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla, and baking powder. Chemistry Info: when the batter cooks it puffs up and the smell changes and that is a chemical change. Also, physical changes are the ingredients being mixed together. The homogenous mixtures are milk and vanilla. because you cant see the different things in them. Submitted by: "Jaclyn W"
Colin F’s Krautfleckerl, Modified from Grandma
I chose this recipe because every time a special occasion comes up then my grandma makes it. It was in my life for a long time and that is why it is special to me. CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: the only ingredient of my recipe that is a pure substance is salt. One of two heterogeneous mixtures in my ingredients is onions. It looks different all the way around. Another ingredient that is heterogeneous is cabbage. One of two homogeneous mixtures in my recipe is noodles. They look the same all the way around. Another homogeneous mixture in my recipe is the olive oil that you sauté the onions in. One of two physical changes is when you chop up the onions and the cabbage. You are just changing the way they look. Another physical change in my recipe is when you boil the water to cook the noodles. The water boils and stays as evaporated water. One clue that a chemical change has occurred in my recipe is when you sauté the onions. Before they were kind of white now they are golden and have a way different smell. Another clue that a chemical change has happened is when you heat the food up from being straight in the refrigerator. Before you heat it up you can't really smell it. After you heat it, the scent it more distinct. Submitted by: "Colin F"
Mason M’s The best brownies modified from food.com
I chose this recipe because they are absolutely delicious. But not only are they delicious the recipe has become a family favorite. CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: In addition to all the information below, there are also several physical and chemical changes. One clue to a chemical change is how the color of the brownies through the middle to the bottom darkens. Another chemical change clue is how the brownies harden and go from a liquid to a solid. One physical change is when you put the ingredients in the bowl and mix them together, this is also a heterogeneous mixture because you can see all the different ingredients. Another physical change is when you heat up the oven it gets hot. Submitted by: "Mason M"

Pumpkin Pie is very tasty and easy to make! CHEMISTRY INFORMATION: Sugar, and salt are both pure substances in this recipe, pumpkin pie spice and evaporated milk are examples of homogeneous mixtures, and eggs are a heterogeneous mixture example. Of course as well as the final outcome. If you make the pie crust yourself for the pie, mushing it into a ball is an example of a physical change. Another example of a physical change is, mixing the ingredients together and creating a batter. Some clues that chemical changes are happening are, the smell of the pie cooking, and the hardening of the the pie crust (texture change). Submitted by: "Lily R"
Caleb’s Milk Chocolate Fudge, Modified from Cooks.com and My Dad’s Recipe.
I chose this recipe because my dad makes it once a year and it is amazing. The recipe is made of milk, sugar, and butter. The sugar is the only pure substance and all the rest are mixtures. The butter is a homogenous mixture and the mini marshmallows. One heterogenous mixture would be the vanilla extract. Chocolate chips would not be a pure substance in the ingredients it would be a homogenous mixture. A homogenous mixture would be the butter and the milk because they look all the same around but they are mixtures. A heterogenous mixture would be the nuts if you would put them in the fudge. A physical change would be mixing the ingredients together. Then, letting the fudge cool down after it all. A chemical change would be the sugar cane does photosynthesis, then the people harvest it and then the have to make it to actual sugar. The sugar formula would be C12H22O11. The servings would be 2 pieces of fudge. Submitted by: "Caleb G-D"
