Cookie Tips




Source of Recipe


by Grandpoohbah, from Alton Brown

Alton gave us a GREAT tip on rolling cookies out...i NEVER een thought about ALL these years.

He uses POWDERED sugar or confectionary sugar instead of flour when rolling out "sweet" doughs...then the gluten content is not messed with and the cookies retain the flavor they should have.

And he puts thick elastic bands on each end of his rolling pin...then the dough stays within the elastic and all the cookie dough is rolled out to the SAME thickness!
