I always get asked what I use to bake cookies so today I am sharing my Cookie Baking Essentials! All of the items you need to make PERFECT cookies! These are my tried and true items that I use every time I bake cookies…which is almost every day:)
And if you are looking for cookie recipes, I’ve got you covered! You can find all of my favorite COOKIE RECIPES HERE! Happy cookie baking!
My Cookie Baking Essentials
- KitchenAid Stand Mixer-I LOVE my KitchenAid Mixers! My favorite kitchen appliance!
- Baking Sheets-I LOVE Williams Sonoma’s Gold Touch Baking Sheets. The half sheet pans are my favorite! They are made with commercial-grade aluminized steel that distributes heat quickly and evenly for consistent baking results. Never use dark pans or your cookies will burn!
- Silpat Baking Mat-I always use Silpat baking mats! Easy clean up and the mats help the cookies bake evenly and they prevent spreading. They are reusable and I use them A LOT:)
- Measuring Cups-love these stainless steel measuring cups. Comes in all the sizes you need!
- Measuring Spoons-love this stainless steel set!
- Mixing Bowls-I use mixing bowls for whisking dry ingredients together. I love this set.
- Whisk-I use a whisk to whisk my dry ingredients together.
- Spatulas-love the different sizes in this set. Great for scraping down the mixing bowl! I also love these spatulas because they are for a great cause and so fun!
- Silicone Cookie Spatula-perfect for lifting cookies off of the baking sheet.
- Oven Thermometer-It’s always good to check the temperature of your oven because they are usually off. This little thermometer goes right inside the oven and is accurate.
- Cookie Scoop– This is a good one. Lots of sizes.
- Oven Mitt-Everyone needs a good oven mitt!
- Cooling Rack-I like this cooling rack because it has 3 tiers and doesn’t take up a lot of space.
- Maldon Sea Salt Flakes-my favorite sea salt for sprinkling on my cookies. The salt brings out the best flavor!
- Guittard Chocolate Chips-My favorite brand of chocolate chips! I like semi-sweet chocolate chips in my cookies, but if you are a milk chocolate fan, their milk chocolate chips are good too!
- Dutch Process Cocoa-I like to use Dutch Process Cocoa. The flavor is so rich and chocolaty!
- Adding my favorite glass containers for flour, oats, and sugar!
- Boxes & Bags– for gifting cookies!
Love getting your “Two peas & their pod”aways something I can use as an “seasoned” so to speak baker. Betty

Question—— do you use bleached or in bleached flour?
I use unbleached flour
I love your recipies and cookbook! I’ve been slowly purchasing some of your kitchen essentials. I was just wondering if you had any suggestions for a thermometer to measure water temperature, for example when making your Perry Rolls recipe?
Do you have any cookie recipe with cranberries ?
Yes, my white chocolate cranberry cookies are so good! https://www.twopeasandtheirpod.com/white-chocolate-cranberry-cookies/
I love your cookie recipes. Where do you purchase your baking essentials. Are there any mail-order stores you would recommend? I have enjoyed several of your other recipes but my favorite thing is to bake cookies.
