10+ Epic Kitchen Fails That Will Make You Feel Better About Your Cooking Skills

Scrolling through recipes on Pinterest, Instagram, or any of the thousands of food blogs is sure to get your mouth watering. Sometimes the pictures can get you so inspired, you suddenly forget that you know nothing about spices and icing and somehow remember your way to the kitchen. Fast forward to a good few hours later, and all you have is a ‘creation’ that barely reminds you of the picture that got you so pumped to start cooking in the first place.

The list below presents you the funniest examples of those kitchen disappointments that will definitely make you giggle. What else can we say – mix together lack of skill and attention, add some laziness, and top it with an odd tendency to improvise, and here you have it – the recipe for a disaster.

40 Times People Tried To Cook And Accidentally Created Modern Art Instead

When culinary aspirations go sideways, they often end up as smoky disasters or inedible blobs. But sometimes, the chaos in the kitchen produces something… unexpectedly beautiful. A lopsided pancake becomes a Picasso. A burnt pizza resembles abstract expressionism. It’s not what they meant to cook, but it’s definitely something.

Here are a few times people tried to cook and accidentally created modern art instead—a hilarious and oddly impressive gallery of edible masterpieces gone wrong.

#25 Accidentally Made Cookies From An AI Recipe

My mom sent me a recipe for red velvet cookies for me to try and didn’t think much of it. I never look at the text and pictures that closely I just skip straight to the recipe, so it didn’t register that it was AI.

The dough was so soft and sticky even after freezing it overnight (recipe said chilling in the fridge for an hour or 2 would be sufficient)! It stuck to everything so much and kept melting that we just said s***w it and just put in the oven as one big sheet cookie.

I looked more closely at the website while it was baking and it’s so obviously AI it’s honestly hilarious. The uncooked dough tasted great but trying it now it tastes like a bad brownie. Texture is really weird too.

Anyway check your recipes, folks, or else you might make the cookie equivalent of the Elephant’s Foot from Chernobyl.
