Pretzel Cookie Making Tools
To make delicious pretzel cookies, you have to have the right supplies.
- Cookie sheets: Itโs best to have at least two so you can have one batch in the oven while youโre preparing the next pan. Depending on how many cookies your pretzel cookies recipe will make, you can have one batch on the cooling rack as well.ย
- Cooling rack: Use a cooling rack for chewy cookies. This allows the bottom of the pretzel cookie to cool at the same speed as the top of the cookie.ย
- Cookie scoop: To create uniform pretzel cookies, you should use a cookie scoop to divide your dough. If you want larger cookies, you can use an ice cream scoop for the job.ย
- Parchment paper or silpat: Keep your cookies from sticking to the pans with either parchment paper or reusable silicone mats.
- Mixing bowl: This is an obvious one, but be sure you choose one thatโs big enough to easily hold your ingredients without getting flour all over the counter.ย
- Measuring cups: For most pretzel cookie recipes, youโll need a 1 cup and ยผ cup measure for dry ingredients, a teaspoon and tablespoon for flavorings and leavening agents, and a liquid measuring cup for eggs, melted butter or oil.
