  • Cooking Scoop – I also highly recommend using a cookie scoop. You will thank me later because it saves so much time on spooning out the cookies.
  • Line Baking Sheets – Another handy kitchen item I like to use are these  baking liners to bake my cookies. Clean up is easy and the cookies turn out perfectly every time. You can also use baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Dough Tip – The dough will be sticky. If you find this hard to scoop into balls, refrigerate for about an hour and that should help.
