Mixing Tips

Cookie dough is one of the thickest doughs to mix. Make it easier by following these tips:

Use a large mixing bowl so that ingredients spread out for easier mixing.

Have butter or margarine at room temperature.

Add ingredients one at a time and thoroughly mix after each addition.

Add flour one cup at a time.

To add chips or nuts to a very thick dough or batter, we recommend stirring them in by hand at the very end of the recipe.
