My Mom makes a LOT of cookies, she has requested a stand mixer to make it easier. Will this handle chocolate chip or oatmeal cookie making?

No I would not suggest getting this. It was inexpensive for a reason. It is not heavy duty and you still have to turn the bowl yourself. I would spend a bit more money and get one with a bowl that turns. That is what I thought I was getting.

For thicker batter I use the dough hooks and it worked better than the beaters.

I asked the fiance and he said no. He said the batter on those are thick that it may make the wands stop moving.

I think you could. It does have the cookie cutter mold for Churros. I love the cookie press. I use it for holiday cookies. I used to use an electric one but it was so much harder. This one is perfect for individual cookies. My one concern would be that the press clicks and the timing is perfect for individual cookies. I'm not sure how it would work with a continuing stream of dough. I would think you could just keep on clicking. I think it would work fine!!

This should work fine, as long as you don't pause between the clicks and let the dough break. It helps if you tilt the press so the dough is coming out parallel to the cookie sheet.

I haven't used it for bread dough or stiff cookie dough. I would have to say, no, it wouldn't work well for those purposes. I've used mine for cheesecake and similar consistancies.

Yes, this handles cookie dough well. The Dough hook is the best attachment to use for cookie dough with this particular mixer.

Yes! I used my hand mixer with no problem. I made a specialty cake, very thick and rich so the batter was almost like bread dough. Both the bowl and the mixer had a workout. Feel free to go for it the bowl will handle it~

This mixer if used properly will knead a loaf of bread, make cake, cookies, whip cream, etc. It is not a heavy duty mixer but it does the job for the casual baker.

I don't think this food processor is a good fit for using it to mix cookie dough simply because it doesn't have the blades very close to the bottom of the container you are likely to have partially mixed cookie dough with flour & other small remnants left over on the bottom. I haven't tried using this machine for this particular activity but for chopping I have some not so fine pieces of food that sometimes needs a hands on approach to remedy the situation.Hope this helps :-)

I gave it 2 my mom 4 xmas, but I asked her. She said it would wor for dough but it would make large cookies. She measured about how much she gets when used 4 ice cream & it makes about a 1/4 cup.

I don't think this would be the right piece of equipment for that. It is quite small (4 cups) and has a blade inside. It is best for chopping and grinding food. I would suggest a stand mixer for baking. Hope this helps.

i dont think so, not with the oven because this is a rubber kind of model. ill advice you to use smashed cookies, not so smashed. maybe bits, but to make it to stick together ill advice you to use cover chocolate.

No, Lisa. I wouldn't use this particular ice cream scoop for cookie dough nor for biscuits. I use the completely round scoops that come in all different sizes depending on the size of cookie or biscuit that you want to make. I really love this very strong and durable ice cream scoop and I use it exclusively to scoop ice cream or sherbet or any frozen dessert.

Yes. I don't have experience with it so I don't know if it would be pretty enough for your purposes, but I just tried it out and it seemed to give a light dusting, a couple inches diameter, when I tapped it. From now on I'll use it for that one cookie recipe I have that calls for it.

It will handle some types of dough, just remember what it is designed to do and that is food processing. I have read comments that it will not handle heavy tasks. It is not built for heavy tasks as a steady diet. It is true that if you are going to use it for heavy tasks, then buy one made for that purpose. Don't do as some and buy this for the price and then complain about how they break it. It is a simple processor that will from time to time handle tough jobs. Don't be cheap and then complain about the product, use it for its intended purpose instead.

no this is to small for special bowls, you are needing a Kitchen-aide stand mixer for all that and at a considerable higher price. We have that too for major mixing or large recipes. This product is better for smaller items like single batches of cookies or brownies etc.

Yes, we use it to make white chocolate and it is awsome, have not tried making choco chips, but that should be possible too

No on chocolate chips, but I have used SMALL berries (dried) without problems. This dispenser is NOT 4 think cookie style batters but can easily handle mix style "quick breads" like cranberry orange
