Well, hello everybody.
00:07
Have we got an interesting
video for you today?
00:08
Hmm, let us ponder, I think we do.
00:10
This is something I wanted to do
00:12
on the recent Kitchen Hacks
10 video with Mrs. Barry,
00:13
but sadly, British weather.
00:17
Today I was supposed to be in
London at the YouTube building
00:19
doing some sort of course thing,
00:23
but I've just emailed them
telling them that I'm busy.
00:24
And by busy I mean trying to do this.
00:27
(gentle music playing)
00:31
Cookies on a tray in a
car, leave for one hour.
00:32
Lady gets back in the
car and she eats cookies.
00:39
I can't believe that
is something that Mrs.,
00:44
oh my gosh, it's still playing,
00:46
Mrs. Barry and I wanted to
do on that hacked video,
00:48
which of course was a massive fail,
00:51
but sadly, we do live here in the UK.
00:53
But today is an insanely hot day.
00:56
It's at least two degrees here in England,
00:59
but honestly it is.
01:01
I don't know if the camera is
going to show it to you well.
01:02
It's clear blue skies and
only just sort of set off,
01:04
and it's actually going to get up
01:07
to around about 28 degrees.
01:08
So if we've got an hour, we can
cook the cookies in the car,
01:11
and we're going to go to the beach.
01:15
We're going to go out and
have a little bit of a drive.
01:16
So we're going to quickly
make some basic cookies,
01:17
and then I think because we're
going to the British seaside,
01:20
which is where I live, we're
gonna get some chips on the go,
01:23
'cause there's nothing
like British seaside
01:26
with good old chips, is there?
01:27
They're frozen, so just
as a little experiment
01:29
we'll see if that works, but quickly,
01:31
we'll make some normal cookie dough.
01:33
And today we can't take Amy
01:34
'cause she really struggles in the heat,
01:36
but Boston doesn't mind it
so much so we'll take him.
01:38
All right, so cookies.
01:41
This is just a bowl with sugar in.
01:43
So you can either go all
white sugar or light brown.
01:45
Going for a mix 100 grammes
each of those sugars.
01:47
I just like to point out
the person that told me
01:50
about the drumstick spoon,
how you actually say beat it,
01:52
I don't know if that was intentional
01:55
when they made this spoon,
but that's an amazing pun.
01:57
In goes our butter.
01:59
I'm just going to beat this together.
02:00
I love making cookies, I love making food.
02:03
I love food, I love you as well,
02:05
but not as much as cookies.
02:07
All right, very nice.
02:09
Right, we'll keep going
with the wet stuff.
02:10
Vanilla extract, one egg.
02:12
A little bit of salt, salt-based dough.
02:17
Self-raising flour and this is
100 grammes of chocolate chips.
02:20
That is everything you need for cookies.
02:25
So let's just beat this through.
02:27
Cookies are best baked from chilled,
02:31
and normally it would only
take about 10 to 12 minutes,
02:33
so we're using an hour of
the sun to make this work.
02:35
So I'm actually going to put this
02:39
into a smaller bowl like that.
02:40
Okay, I just got the
pre-made cookie dough stuff,
02:43
which I think they used in
the video, from the fridge.
02:45
I'm keeping both of these chilled
02:48
and we'll take it in a cool box.
02:49
I'm actually going to bake it on the tray
02:51
and prepare it in my van in the beach.
02:53
Yes, that's what we're going to do.
02:56
Ultimately, though, I'm going
to Wrapmaster 3000 this.
02:58
And put both of these
in the fridge to chill
03:02
whilst I get my ice bags
ready, my baking trays,
03:05
the stuff from the freezer,
the chips from the freezer.
03:07
So I'll probably switch to
03:10
the old little handheld vlog camera
03:11
because I don't want to be carrying
03:12
a massive tripod around with me.
03:13
All right, most important thing
03:17
is to take Boston's lead
and some dog poo bags.
03:18
We're gonna take these baking trays.
03:23
(ice packs clanking)
03:26
There we go, in it goes.
03:31
The chips, which is just
a bonus thing, here.
03:33
They're gonna be like an
ice pack as well, yeah.
03:40
All right, so here we are.
03:53
All right, mate, what you eatin'?
03:55
In the back, I've got two baking trays.
03:59
I haven't checked if they fit.
04:01
They will fit, looking at it.
04:02
My backpack with loads of stuff in it
04:03
and some water for Boston,
and of course the ice packs,
04:05
so we need to get to the beach now.
04:07
I've no idea where to park.
04:09
It is hot already, ugh.
04:10
♪ Let's go to the beach,
beach, let's get away ♪
04:13
Right, we're on our way to the beach.
04:15
The only thing I need to make sure I do
04:16
is obviously pay for
my parking if I need to
04:18
and also make sure that I park
04:22
where the sun is facing the
dashboard, not in the shade.
04:24
That would be very silly.
04:26
There it is, my friends.
04:28
My hometown, AKA Weston-super-Vegas.
04:29
Is it just cash to park here?
04:32
- [Barry] Okay, I can't park
and then go get some, can I?
04:34
- [Employee] You can do that, yeah.
04:36
- [Barry] I only need to be here
04:38
for four hours max, I think.
04:39
- [Employee] Yeah, that's fine.
04:40
Just walk up and then when you come back,
04:41
just come here to sort it out.
04:43
- Yeah, all right, brilliant.
04:44
Thank you very much, cheers.
04:45
Oh, wow, look, we are
going onto the beach.
04:46
That girl was from South Africa.
04:47
Oh, this is perfect, guys.
04:49
And the sun is directly above the car now.
04:51
Oh, that's amazing.
04:54
All right, so to maximise heatness,
04:55
is that even a word, heatness?
04:57
I have done up the windows in the vehicle.
04:58
My chips, and I'm gonna do those first
05:03
because it's just a bonus thing.
05:07
Yeah, all right, that's my chips.
05:09
So they're gonna go up there.
05:11
Look, that is the block
from the supermarket.
05:13
I'm only gonna take a couple out.
05:17
So little table tennis ball shapes.
05:19
Boom, literally just stick it on the tray,
05:22
and in here is the dough
that we made from scratch.
05:25
Oh, that's nice and firm too,
05:30
considering we only made
it about ten minutes ago.
05:32
All right, we'll stick that on there.
05:35
I think, for the homemade dough,
05:38
it's gonna be very touch and go.
05:39
Here we go, homemade ones right here.
05:42
Oh, that looks a bit weird,
stick it down like that.
05:44
The store-bought ones on the left as well,
05:46
next to the other store-bought chips,
05:48
so that's how I'll
remember which one's which.
05:49
That said, it's been like two minutes now
05:51
and it is so hot already.
05:53
Just coming up to half past 10,
05:54
so we'll give it at least an hour.
05:56
I wonder if anyone's gonna walk past
05:58
and be like, "Oh yeah,
that's completely normal."
05:59
Well, there's definitely
worse things in my hometown,
06:02
but hey, I actually prefer living here
06:04
than the hustle and bustle of London.
06:06
Let's get out, mate, yeah?
06:08
Let's get out and party.
06:09
Yep, that's something
you don't see every day.
06:10
All right, let's take
this guy for walkies then.
06:14
Are you gonna christen someone's?
06:16
You have to pay about five
grand, I think, for these a year.
06:18
It's hard to think that my car is
06:22
down there about a mile
away in the sun baking.
06:24
It is deceptively windy
but it is very very hot.
06:28
I've been over an hour now
as well, but so far so good.
06:31
Random fact for you, if I've
got any followers from Cardiff.
06:35
Right in the distance, you can see it,
06:37
and when I bid for things on eBay,
06:40
sometimes it tells me
that there's something
06:42
like five miles away because
eBay doesn't take out the sea.
06:44
Someone's getting some cookies.
06:49
All right, folks, just to
give you some perspective,
06:54
we've walked all the way along there.
06:56
There's the pier, big wheel,
06:59
and there's people taking a selfie.
07:01
Right in the distance is my car
07:03
so we're gonna walk back there.
07:06
It's already about an hour and a half in,
07:07
so it's done in half an hour.
07:09
I hope we haven't burnt them.
07:10
They sometimes call my
hometown Weston-super-mud
07:12
because a lot of the
holidaymakers come here
07:14
and they think, "Look,
I can reach the sea,"
07:17
and they go out there, right?
07:18
And it actually is really muddy
07:19
and they get stuck and they
have to get pulled out,
07:21
so it's uh, happens quite regularly.
07:22
Hey, Boston, we're nearly there.
07:26
I can see the van right in the distance.
07:29
All right, here we go then, folks.
07:31
The sun has been perfect angle for it.
07:33
The chips don't look done.
07:40
Smells like chips, doesn't it?
07:48
They look, it smells
like a bakery in here,
07:53
but there's grease on the baking tray,
07:55
but there would be if you bake anyway.
07:57
These pans are really hot, oh my gosh.
07:59
I don't know if this has worked,
08:02
but this dog is really hot
so I wanna get him home,
08:04
so we'll test it back there.
08:07
Let's get home right now.
08:08
It's like a five minute drive.
08:09
I'm feeling a little bit
windswept but we are back.
08:10
Look at poor Boston right here.
08:13
Look at him, he's knackered.
08:14
Thank you, mate, thank you.
08:16
But I think he actually enjoyed himself.
08:18
He had loads of water,
he was spoiled rotten
08:20
by loads of dog biscuits, too,
08:21
and I've come home because I wanted to
08:23
kind of replicate the idea of baking them.
08:24
Not like in the video, leaving
it on a cooling rack to,
08:27
well, effectively cool down a little bit.
08:29
Those trays were hot.
08:31
Okay, so the other reason
we needed to come home
08:33
is I didn't prepare having
a spatula to get these off,
08:35
but they actually feel,
um, semi-cooked, I guess.
08:37
These are the ones that I made myself.
08:43
These are the store-bought ones, but...
08:45
Bear in mind, I gave it two
hours, not the one hour it said.
08:51
These are a little bit wet.
08:55
Oh, that's a bit more
cookie-ish, that's, ooh.
08:59
Okay, I have a volunteer
sat at the dining table
09:02
that was not planning on being here.
09:07
Do-do-do-do-do, I've
been to the beach, huh?
09:14
- I know, what a job, eh?
09:17
All right, okay, do you wanna try this?
09:18
This is a store-bought cookie.
09:20
Look at the chocolate.
09:22
- A store-bought cookie?
09:23
- This is a store-bought
ready-made cookie dough.
09:24
It's not the texture of a cookie at all.
09:36
- It's like warm raw cookie dough.
09:38
- Yeah, it's just cookie dough.
09:42
Now these are the ones I made myself.
09:45
The ones I made myself,
they looked better,
09:49
but they're falling apart as well.
09:51
I think it needed longer
or it just needed an oven.
09:53
- Did you get this from the same video--
09:59
- That our hacks were from?
10:01
- Yes, we were gonna do this one,
10:03
but the weather was horrendous.
10:04
- You don't need to say anymore.
10:06
- All right, these are the chips.
10:08
These are oven--
- Chips?
10:09
- Yeah, go to the sea side, innit?
10:11
All right, it does smell of
potato and a bakery in my car.
10:13
- I'm not trying these, I
can see they're not cooked.
10:17
- That's actually not bad.
10:22
Just try it, stop prodding it, go on.
10:25
- That's more cooked than the cookies.
10:30
So this is another, yeah,
you do what you want, Mrs. B.
10:33
This is another thing, and
I was thinking about this
10:35
as I was walking along,
how a lot of time I think
10:37
and I think that these are hack videos,
10:39
we will keep trying them, right, Mrs. B?
10:41
- I think that they're done by people
10:44
that have had some skill of like,
10:47
doing food preparation or marketing,
10:49
because if you look at it,
10:51
it comes out immaculate every time,
10:53
and of course, like TV,
they want it to work
10:55
because it's gonna get massive views.
10:58
- And it's people that
have tried about 20 times.
11:00
- Yeah.
- If not more.
11:02
- That's us, yeah, so I
think that's what it is.
11:04
So next time you watch these videos,
11:07
I actually think, if you
do see that video, the car,
11:08
the cookie, the shot they've
got of it rising like that,
11:11
I think they just employ people
11:13
that are very skilled in cameras and stuff
11:15
that have set up something to
look like a car windscreen.
11:17
It's actually either an
oven or just something.
11:20
It would not do that,
do you know what I mean?
11:22
I think they've done some trickery there,
11:25
and the lady just walks in and goes, "Hm."
11:27
I let them actually cool,
like you do with cookies,
11:30
and it still flopped, but there you go.
11:33
Lots of you wanted to
see that specific hack.
11:36
Hopefully you enjoy that, but
as for future hack videos,
11:38
we will do more of them
11:41
and we will be honest
about them, right, Mrs. B?
11:42
- All right, enjoy lunch break.
11:45
Phew, I think I've got a sun tan today.

Was the ones I got from the cafe.
12:00
