Is it ok to use aluminum foil over a cookie sheet or will that screw it up? My cookie sheet is kind of old / dirty.

I don't have a mixer, but I have a food processor...to whip the butter and combine all the ingrediants, can I use a food processor with the plastic blade?

Thanks

Reynolds came out with foil that things don't stick to as easily, but spray the foil with PAM or something. You could use butter but then the cookies might be too buttery...depends how much is in your recipe.

Some cookie sheets have a special design that supposedly makes your cookies more moist or something, but grandma made these same cookies on a big flat slab of steel so I wouldn't worry too much about putting foil over the sheet - even if you have one of these special ones.

I wouldn't use the food processor because it's not going to work as well as a mixer or your hand... just leave the butter out for a few hours so you can do it yourself. The food processor is going to be hard to clean and also, it's gonna mix the lower 2 inches of your cookies too much, while the rest of the batter might not get mixed. I guess it depends on the size and amount of your batter - but I am predicting standard food processor and the standard 1 cup oats cookie recipe. Have fun!

There's no problem with using aluminum foil. You'll be baking your cookies @ 375 and believe me that's not a high temperature for aluminum foil. What "fruit sna" meant was parchment paper and that's what all the cooking gurus recommend because it's silicone. It doesn't stick, burn or leave a taste. Yes, you can use the plastic blade on your food processor.

Sure.I like to use Reynold's Release Foil as the cookies will not stick to it.Parchment paper is great,too.I think the plastic blade should work OK.

Yes to both questions. You can use alum foil. (I do it too, for the same reason!) and you can use the plastic blade, but I think it may blend the oats finer than you'd like. I don't have a blender with a plastic blade so I don't know if it chops at all. Mine's steel and very sharp. Don't forget to grease the alum foil to prevent sticking.

the foil should be fine. If the butter is room temp - then you can just as easily mix it all by hand - use a big bowl and a wooden spoon.

I made oatmeal, choc chip and walnut cookies this afternoon mmmm

Foil would be fine, but you should buy a new cookie sheet, soon as possible. Walmart is a good place, to get them. Safeway, Albertsons, Rite Aid and Longs have them, too.

There are various components which could make a cookie extremely annoying. it may desire to be you're baking them too long and that they are getting dried out. Your recipe could have too plenty flour. Overmixing the cookie dough will additionally create a annoying cookie. So, do this: For chewiness, strengthen the quantity of fat on your recipe. strengthen the quantity of sugar and liquid. Use a flour with a extreme protein content cloth (AP 4 could desire to be advantageous). Underbake the cookies and funky on a cooling rack. Take them off the cookie sheet until now they have a gamble to establish and placed them on the rack. in simple terms be careful, taking them of the sheet pan too quickly will lead them to fall apart. do no longer over combination the dough. in case you like, supply me the recipe and that i will evaluate it for you. Edit: Sorry, i did no longer comprehend you have been utilising an on the spot combination. in case you opt to lead them to from scratch, save on with this technique (inspite of what the recipe says). a million) Cream the fat and sugar mutually to contain air. do no longer over combination or the fat will separate out. 2) upload the eggs progressively, scraping down the aspects of the bowl. 3) Stir interior the liquid components 4) Stir interior the flour, salt and spices and leaveners. try this all of sudden. do no longer do it in increments as some recipes call for. This motives overmixing. 5) Fold in any nuts, chocolate chips or chunky components by skill of hand.

Use parchment paper..........cookies won't stick.
You can use your food processor, to whip the butter and sugars. I suggest incorporating the dry ingredients by hand.

I've also added white chocolate chips and craisins to the recipe.
