PRODUCTION HINTS
*
It is important to make notes and attach them to each cookie recipe that you make. Next time,
you'll have the notes to refer to and your processes will flow much smoother. A sigh post of
great baking is consistency in every thing you bake. Notes will help you keep the things you
bake consistent time after time.

Cool cookies as quickly as possible.
MIXING

HANDLING

*
Cool and tray as soon as possible.
Store each type of cookie in an air tight container.
Baking soda, nuts and chocolate will pick up odors, so do not store cookie batter where it
may pick up odors.

keep well unless it is refrigerated or frozen immediately after mixing.
PROBLEMS WITH COOKIES
PROBLEM: How to make oatmeal cookies better tasting.
Add a small amount of Cinnamon. Chopped raisins, dates or nut−meats will make Oatmeal cookies
