Baking Tip

 I have heard this tip time and time again but I never used it until recently.  If you are baking cookies, you want to make sure each drop of dough is the same size so it cooks evenly.  What is the quickest and easiest way to do this?

Ice cream scooper!

Use a small ice cream scoop to divvy cookies quickly and easily.  The best kinds are the ones with the swiping mechanism that scrapes out the inside.  Just scoop up some dough and press it against the side of the bowl to knock off excess.  Then place the perfectly-sized mound onto a cookie sheet.  Voila!  All your cookies will be the same size and cook evenly.  No more struggling with two spoons and adding a little more dough here or there.

I hope this comes in as handy for you as it has for me!  Do you have any favorite baking tips or cookie recipes?  Feel free to share :)
