Prompt: June, Y2K; Pin event, 1990s

Project Name: Pocky
Project Link:
Brief Description:
I lived in Japan from 1996 until just before Y2K. That’s where I discovered Pocky! (Pocky was not introduced to the U.S. until 2003.)
I found a recipe online for homemade Pocky. I had trouble because, in spite of weighing ingredients, etc, the dough was too dry. I pretty much doubled the liquid and it was still dry.
So I made one batch and dipped the sticks in melted chocolate. Some of them broke because they were still too crumbly. I put them in the freezer to set. I decided to just make small cookies with the remaining dough. I iced them with a concoction consisting of nonfat Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, and dried strawberry powder.
I will not be seen on The Great British Baking Show anytime soon, but I may gain a little weight 
So, not an unmitigated disaster
