Characters: Ahsoka Tano, Anakin Skywalker, and Obi-wan Kenobi.

Anakin had decided that today, they were going to do some baking. Ahsoka and Obi-Wan were...skeptical, "No offense Skyguy, but your not the greatest baker." Ahsoka said as she grabbed an apron, "She has a point, Anakin." Obi-Wan agreed. "Oh really?" Anakin asked, "Name one time my baking skills were anything less than adequate." "The cake you tried baking for Obi-wan's birthday a few months ago." Ahsoka said, "Any other time." Anakin said, shooting a glare at Ahsoka. "What about the cupcakes you tried making for my birthday a few years ago?" Obi-Wan asked. Anakin raised his hands in surrender, "Okay, but this is different," he said, "Those times neither one of you could help me, now you can." Ahsoka nodded, "Skyguy's got a point," she said, "Besides cake and cookies are two entirely different things." Obi-Wan sighed, "Very well," he said, "But I've got a bad feeling about this."


"Another bad batch." Anakin said, dumping the burnt cookies into the trash. "Maybe Master Kenobi should work the oven." Ahsoka suggested as she mixed the ingredients so they could make some more. "Good idea," Anakin said, stepping aside and gesturing to the oven, "Master, would you be so kind as to handle the oven." "If I don't want you burning down half the temple then I suppose I probably should." Obi-Wan said as he walked over. "Wait," Anakin said, "What am I supposed to do?" "You could do the could do the cookie cutters." Ahsoka offered, holding one up. "Okay, fine." Anakin grumbled.


"Okay so I'll roll out the dough, then you can cut it with the cookie cutters, and then Master Kenobi will make sure they don't burn." Ahsoka said, and began rolling out the cookie dough. Anakin waited impatiently for Ahsoka to finish. When she did he eagerly took over. He used the cookie cutters and made several different shapes, a candy cane, a tree, a bell, and snowflake. Obi-Wan took the tray and put in the oven, "Now what?" Anakin asked, "Now you watch me make icing." Ahsoka said, and proceeded to grab one large bowl and four smaller ones. Anakin watched Ahsoka mix the ingredients into icing, divide it into four bowls, then add a few drops of food coloring to three of them. In the time it took for the cookies to bake, and start cooling, Ahsoka had made red, green, yellow, and white icing and had managed to clean up some of the mess they had made. She then began to ice the cookies, "I wanna help." Anakin whined, "This is a delicate process," Ahsoka said, then sighed, "You can put some white sugar crystals on the snowflake if you want." So it went on like this, Ahsoka did the icing, and Obi-wan made sure Anakin didn't get carried away with sprinkles.


In the end, they had a beautiful plate of decorated cookies. Not only were they beautiful, they were also edible. Anakin had eaten all the leftover icing and fallen asleep on the couch. "Unbelievable," Ahsoka whispered to Obi-Wan, "Now we have to clean up all by ourselves." "Not necessarily," Obi-Wan said, "I have a few hiding spots Anakin hasn't found yet." Ahsoka gave him a puzzled look, "I'll hide the cookies, you and I can go have dinner at Dex's, and we'll leave a note telling Anakin to clean up." Ahsoka grinned, "Master Kenobi, you are brilliant."


A/N: I've always seen holiday sugar cookies with frosting and sugar crystals on them, so I guess that's what I had them bake in the story. Did anyone catch my little inside joke/Easter Egg? I'd love to know. There are four days until Christmas Eve, five days until Christmas Day, and nine days until The Book of Boba Fett. Anyway, thank you for reading, feel free to leave a review, and I hope you enjoyed.
