Snacks: Big Batch Cookies

List of Ingredients
Here are the recipes for our five favorite cookies.
NOTES: These are made for use in a larger mixer -- I have a Bosch and love it -- use it daily, especially for large batches. With the Bosch I do not spend time creaming butter and sugar together. I put everything in the mixer and use the dough hooks to mix it all up. I do start with softened butter (I use butter in nearly every recipe rather than the
shortening) so it mixes in easily.
Couple shortcuts -- I use a potato masher to criss cross my peanut butter cookies -- a neat design and only one step. The 1" scoop is a great timesaver and keeps everything uniform and the kids love using it. They can be scooping while I'm measuring ingredients for the next batch or cleaning up. I usually put the first batch in the oven frozen while the oven is
preheating. It takes a couple minutes longer, but saves on the heat.
BIG BATCH COOKIES
(Made for Bosch mixer -- up to 12 cups flour -- makes up to 10 dozen 1� cookie balls
I make them in the following order. I can fit one batch of dough balls on two 13x17 baking sheets. They will freeze solid while I am mixing the next type of dough.
I do them in the following order so I don�t have to wash out my mixer between batches.
