My from-scratch cookies were a total flop at the family reunion.
I wanted to impress my relatives with homemade cookies. I added too much salt by mistake and they tasted awful. My cousin tried one and made a face that had everyone laughing. I learned that simple bakes are better for big groups. Now I stick to easy recipes that never fail.

But what if the issue wasn't that from-scratch recipes are too hard for groups? I mean, salt mistakes can happen to anyone, right? Maybe next time you could measure the salt into a small bowl first before adding it, so you don't lose track. I've seen people use little cups for each part to avoid mix-ups. With a bit of practice, those fancy cookies might turn out great even for a crowd. It's all about getting the steps down, not just picking easy stuff.

But what if groups just get too distracted to focus?

Ugh, been there with the salt thing. It's so easy to lose track in a busy kitchen. Solid tip about the little bowls though.
