Gift Idea: Cookie Scoop

As the holidays approach, I’m sharing a few gift ideas. These are either products we own and love, or products we would love to acquire 🙂

Oxo Good Grips Cookie Scoop

A Great Gift For: Bakers, especially with kids who like to help

Price: ~$13 at Amazon

I’m not a huge kitchen gadget person and for a long time I thought cookie scoops were unnecessary extravagances, but once I got one, I was so glad to have it and have never looked back.   It makes scooping cookies soo much faster than the old “two spoon” method.   I use mine all the time when I make our favorite Banana Chocolate Chip Mini Muffins.  Also, when the kids want to help, they can manipulate the tool pretty easily (I have to assist my 3 year old a bit) and it helps move that process along.

If someone you know likes to bake drop cookies, I’m sure they’d love a scoop as well.  I own the medium (linked above), which is just right for most applications.  I wouldn’t mind having a small sized scoop as well, although it’s more of a “nice to have” for me.

I highly recommend the Oxo brand.  After a few years of use, mine did fall apart, but Oxo has a great warranty — I contacted them, sent back my old one and received a brand new one in the mail.  You can find these scoops at numerous houseware stores as well as online at Amazon.
