COOKIE BAKING • Use an ice cream scoop to measure out cookie dough – this keeps the cookies evenly shaped and uniform in size. We recommend ice cream scoops in several sizes – #40, #50 and #60, as well as a larger one (about 1⁄3 to ½ cup) for jumbo cookies.
frosting easier than a knife or regular spatula. the tips of the peaks fall when the whisk is lifted up – soft peaks are often required for EGG WHITES mousses or soufflés. The next stage is medium to stiff peaks. This is used for recipes • Egg whites at room temperature are best for such as meringues – the whites will appear whipping. Bring to room temperature safely dry, the peaks will hold their shape and the by placing uncracked eggs in a bowl of whites will be shiny.
Light cream may also be whipped, but will not last as long. Creams that are not ultrapasteurized are best for whipping. The yield of cream generally doubles in volume. To make 2 cups of softly whipped cream, put 1 cup of heavy/whipping cream into the well-chilled mixing bowl. Starting on Speed 2 and increasing to Speed 10 or 12, whip until it just begins to hold its shape. Add about ½ teaspoon pure vanilla or other pure flavored extract and 1 to 4 tablespoons granulated, superfine or confectioners’ sugar.
