Tammi, this will be a great roller for any small tasks such as miniature pie shells, cookie dough in small amounts as well as the fondant or even play dough or clay. I hope this helps. Best wishes, Tina L.

I think it will work well for rolling a relatively small amount of dough. It is a definitely smaller rolling pin, and you can remove those little guide rings on it, too.

Well my wife use this to roll out Fondant for cakes, cookies should be about the same consistency. It is made for these things. It is heavy enough and easy to clean.

Tammi,this is a small pin. I am not sure how good you are with a standard size rolling pin.. BUt if you can work a standard size one.. you can certainly work a mini version.. just with smaller amount of dough at a time... Good Luck . so I say YES.. with smaller amounts of cookie dough.. No Problem.

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.

I have the medium sized one but I use it for cookie dough. The cookies come out about 2-2/12" round. If that helps any. I guess you could use the medium sized on for the cupcakes and do a couple of test tries. Maybe 1 scoop or maybe 2?? Sorry I wish I could be of more use. Best of luck!! It's the greatest product and the dough comes right out of it!! I'm sure the batter would too! Have you tried looking online for cupcake scoop sizes? And what they recommend? Good luck!! GA

I have done neither but I do not think it would be strong enough for cookie dough. Cake mix, seems like you would be getting into more clean up than with a bowl and spatula.

Do you mean "scrape" out the dough? Once in a while I've had the dough stick a little, but not to the point of becoming troublesome or annoying. I did see this mentioned by another reviewer before I purchased. So far I've only used the scoop for cookie making but I must say I love it. I've found my family loves the small size cookies best.

With just a little practice, you can make less than 2 inch cookies with this scoop- try leveling the scoop with the top of the mixing bowl as you withdraw the scoop. I use a rather heavy batter and make considerably larger cookies most of the time,with a rounded scoop full- good luck! JBH

Sure, it's great for rolling out any kind of dough. The width of the roller is only 5 1/2" so you're going to be making small pizzas.....

Use the dough hook for cookie dough. It works just fine. You might have to mix for a bit longer. I'm 73 and love the fact the mixer is light weight, stores on top of a cabinet and the bowl is light enough to allow me to pour and push things out with my limited strength. Pat H. Green Bay

The roller is about 4 inches across, maybe 1.5 in diameter. It works very well, although you will want a very well kneaded almost dry dough or it doesn't roll out well

I've only used the 2 tsp (smallest) size. It makes cookies that are 2 inches wide. (Or 2 inches, if the dough is stiff enough not to spread as much.) I doubt if my information is all that helpful, but good luck.

It would work for small batches of cookie dough, but definitely not large batches.

I have not used GF dough in this particular pan, but I have in other types that require sizing the dough into a small area. I think it would work for you especially if you press it in instead of rolling and cutting. The removable bottom is an added plus for finicky doughs.

I imagine they can help you measure out the diameter of circular dough like when making a pie crust or pizza. I use the rolling pin for cookie dough, so I don't worry about the numbers.

I have had one of these since the 1970's and they were made by Foley Co. The best thing to do is to throw away the frame, as it slips, and use without the frame.....You will love it for rolling out any dough from cookie dough, to bread to pie crust! I have nearly worn my out, and ready to order this as I love it. Be sure to rub the flour into the cloth before the 1st use, then just fold up into a little square and store in a zip-bag in the freezer.....you do not want to wash it each time that you use it. It is wonderful after it has lots of flour worked into the cloth! Enjoy......from one who has baked for about 50 years! :) I have had one of these since the 1970's and they were made by Foley Co.

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 do make cookies with it..but it is not durable enough to make heavy dough.

as long as your ratio is right in achieving something elastic but only slightly sticky, and you keep the dough going through the roller lightly flowered. you should be fine. only one way to find out! go for it!
