Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OXO Good Grips Medium Cookie Scoop
Customer Review: A 'must have' if you bake cookies
Summary: 5 Stars
A scoop is one of two things that most people baking cookies at home don't have but should have. Not only does it make sure that each cookie is the same size and cooked evenly, it makes baking more enjoyable. The thing I hated most about making cookies was trying to wrestle the batter off a spoon.
While most scoops are packaged either Small, Medium, or Large, a more meaningful term is the number stamped on the inside of the handle. The large scoop is a #20, meaning that it takes 20 scoops to equal one quart (think ice cream) the larger the number, the smaller the scoop. Some reviewers are saying that the Medium produces too large of a cookie. It really depends on your ingredients and technique. In my experience, using a #20 with a butter-based batter gives me flat, 4" in diameter cookies. However, chilling the batter in the fridge about 15 mins before scooping, they're poofier and about 3" across (which is the perfect size in my opinion, if you're handing out one cookie per person). If you're using margarine or shortening, expect the cookies to be smaller, but taller, because they melt at higher temperatures than butter.
Oh, the other "must have"? Parchment paper (not wax paper) instead of greasing the cookie sheet. This allows you to lift the cookies off the sheet as soon as you take them out of the oven, before they'd be firm enough to spatula onto a cooling rack. This prevents the bottom of the cookie from over-browing due to the carry-over heat from the sheet. You can also use a reusable Silpat (search Amazon) instead. A roll of parchment paper is about $5 at the grocery store and a Silpat is $20 on Amazon, so it might be worth it if you bake more often than just the holidays.
Description of OXO Good Grips Medium Cookie Scoop
For easy scooping and consistently round cookies, try an OXO Good Grips Cookie Scoop. OXO Scoops have soft grips that absorb pressure while you squeeze to easily release your cookie dough. This medium size scoop holds 1.5 tablespoons of cookie dough and produces a 2.75 inch cookie.Cookies that are uniform in size will bake evenly, creating a consistently perfect batch. Available also in small and large sizes, this medium-size scoop picks up approximately 1-1/2 tablespoons of dough, which yields a cookie 2-3/4 inches in diameter. While the handles are spread a bit wide for small hands to manage easily, the soft grips do add comfort when squeezing to release the dough. Dishwasher-safe, the scoop can also be used to produce decorative 1-3/4-inch balls of ice cream, rice, and other foods. --Ann Bieri
