Tips and tricks by Chef Osama

With a quality scoop, you don't have to worry about getting every ball of dough to be the same size. Best of all, the dough slides right out

Before baking, press a few chocolate chips on the outside of the dough. When they’re ready, enjoy delicious looking chocolate chip cookies.

Everything bakes more evenly—and it makes the cleanup a breeze.

You can also mix, color and prepare royal icing bags weeks before you sit down to decorate cookies.

When baking several batches of cookies, do all the mixing at once—and do all the baking on another day.

Freeze cut-out cookies for 10 minutes before baking. They'll keep their shape better during baking and also rise slightly higher.

To keep cookies soft and chewy, store them in a tightly sealed container right before they are completely cooled.

Add a piece of bread to your bag or box of cookies to keep them fresh and moist. It works every time!

A sprinkle of sea salt on a chocolate chip cookie brings out the flavor and will make the cookie unforgettable.
