COOKIE BAKING QUESTIONS | ANSWERED!
For Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookie Recipe
Q: What kind of peanut butter did you use?
A: I used Simply Truth Organic Creamy Peanut Butter, a brand only found at Kroger / Fred Meyer. Feel free to use what brand and type of peanut butter you have on hand. Chunky! Flavored!
Q: Can I use all oatmeal?
A; Sure go ahead! Remember, the flour will give some structure. If you use all oatmeal, it will have a more oatmeal cookie feel and texture to it.
Q: Why did you make the cookie dough so big?
A: Bigger cookie dough = bigger cookie! If you want smaller cookies, use only one scoop of dough versus two.
Q: Why chill the cookie dough?
A: Chilling dough (especially in the warm weather) solidifies the butter in the dough. Once the cold dough goes into the hot oven, it expands slowly. Thus, you get a thick, big cookie. If you bake the dough immediately, there is greater chance of cookie spreading greatly.
Q: Can I chill the cookie dough in the freezer?
A: Yes, go ahead! This dough freezes very well. Bake cookies as cravings accumulate!
Q: How did you shape the cookie dough?
A: First, I lightly damp my hands with water. I take two scoops of the cookie dough and roll it in a big ball, then slightly flatten it. It will look like a mis-shape disk. Look at the photo below.
Q: How do you store these cookies after they are done baking?
A: In an air-tight container or plastic bag. If the weather is crazy warm, store it in the fridge so the chocolate will not melt.
Q: What size cookie scoop did you use?
A: I used a #20 cookie scoop. So each cookie = 2 scoops. Professional cookie scoops come in numbers. The bigger the number, the small the scoop. #100 scoop = small cookie. # 16 or #20 = large cookie.
