Sorry the t-shirts in this video are no longer available :(

In this video, we attempt to make the world's purest cookie and to see how it compares to a regular cookie. In my opinion, it has to be better, because it's pure.

    I forgot to mention it in the video, but we did not pull a vacuum in the oven! It is just vacuum sealed and some air gets pushed out when it's closed. I think pulling a vacuum would have murdered the cookie.

    This feels like a skit where two aliens try to do something really ordinary and basic to try and fit in with humans and many shenanigans ensue lmaooo I love it
  • @arlenburton9490
    Watching two men who have never baked a cookie bake a $5k cookie is an experience
  • @7thsluglord363
    An alien attempts to blend in with human society by crafting a native favorite recipe, the kuukee
  • in their effort to make the purest cookie they forgot the purest ingredient of all. love.
  • @mattgolman
    I love that Nigel apparently didn't think to try baking a normal cookie first to try the process. He just jumped straight to an inedible $2k lab grade cookie.
  • The cameraman coaching Nile through basic baking practices was truly the blind leading the blind.
  • As a baker this is the funniest shit I’ve ever seen. Two men bake the most expensive cookie on the planet, freaking out because it’s cracking on the edges
  • @zman1064
    I think the purest part about this cookie is the fact that he got his Grandmother to make a recipe for him.
  • @Robin-pn6bh
    Him calmly handling substances that could easily kill him but panicking about making a cookie is absolutely hilarious
  • @warm_egg_salad5953
    As the son of a baker, it's hilarious to see someone so panicked about a cookie craking during baking. You did good for your first time making a cookie.
  • @DBUCKS1988
    "this doesn't taste like it has a soul in it" is such a culinary insult. These 2 have some awesome quotes throughout their videos.

    Ultra Pure Chocolate: "Not for human consumption" Also Ultra Pure Chocolate: "Baking Chocolate"
  • @GoGoX1
    This feels like watching "scientist who has never seen or heard of a cookie is tasked with making one" for 28 minutes. loved every second of it
  • @heikaikki4824
    I love how Nile can turn gloves into hot sauce and paint into soda, but not cookie dough into a cookie.
  • @xWatcher47x
    the ammount of times that i could tell neither of you had ever made cookies in your lives was astonishing
  • Hearing Nile freak out about the cracking is the funniest thing I've ever heard
  • @garbagecan755
    It absolutely FASCINATES me how similar Chemistry and Cooking are and yet Nile is just completely out of his element the second it becomes food.
  • @dylanevans9
    This is what I actually thought “making it from scratch” meant as a kid
  • This is really quite remarkable: My Mother is a Baker, My Father is a Research Chemist, Both were impressed by how bad this experiment was done. My mother because of the lack of a defined baking procedure for the cookie, the fact that you didnt watch a single video of how to shape a cookie on a pan, and the fact you made 1 single huge cookie instead of spreading the cookie dough to multiple cookies. My father from you lack of accuracy and how you handled the ingredients. You threw them around, dumped them, and "shot from the hip" when measuing for Vanilla extract and more things i dont understand. But i was just happy i got to see the shook and rattled look on their faces.
