OXO Good Grips Medium Cookie Scoop

When I bought this scoop five years ago, I used it primarily for making cookies. It was perfect for getting just the right amount of dough and for keeping my cookies consistent for baking. The scoop has been working perfectly through these years. Prior to buying this scoop, I had tried other, more cheaply made scoops and found that they broke fairly rapidly. Knowing OXO's quality, I purchased this scoop once I found it on Amazon. I have found that I use it all the time for other purposes. One of my favorite uses is for making meatballs. I use this for my pasta dishes and especially when I make Albondigas soup. This is a wonderful Mexican soup and it is important to get the meatballs consistent in size. For anyone interested, here is the recipe I have developed over the years: Albondigas Soup Recipe Ingredients: * 1 large onion, chopped (1 cup) * 2 teaspoons granulated garlic * 2 teaspoons dehydrated onion (not onion powder) * 1 Tablespoon cooking oil * 32 ounces chicken or beef broth (or a mixture of half and half) * 4 cups water * 1/2 can (3 ounces) tomato paste * 2 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed (2 cups) * 2 medium carrots, sliced (1 cup) * 2 celery stalks sliced (1 cup) * 1 zucchini cubed (1 cup) * 1 beaten egg * 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro * 1 teaspoon salt * 1 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed * 1/2 teaspoon black pepper * 1 pound 80/20 ground chuck beef * 1/2 cup long grain rice (not Uncle Ben's - use the cheap type of rice as the grains soften to the right consistency) * 1 teaspoon cider or red wine vinegar Preparation: In large pot (6 qt), cook onion in hot oil till onion is tender but not brown. Stir in water, broth, and tomato paste. Bring to boiling; add potatoes, carrots, celery and zucchini. Bring to simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Add half of the cilantro, salt, oregano, and pepper (the other half is reserved for meatballs.) Meanwhile combine egg, dehydrated onion, and remaining cilantro, salt, oregano, and pepper. Add ground beef and half of uncooked rice. Mix well and return to refrigerator for 15 minutes to chill. Form mixture into around 1-inch meatballs (I use the OXO medium cookie scoop Add meatballs, a few at a time, to the simmering (not boiling!) soup. Add remaining rice. Return soup to boiling; reduce heat and simmer and cook uncovered about 30/40 minutes or till meatballs and vegetables are done. Skim fat, add vinegar, simmer 1 minute and turn off heat and serve.

I have had this since 2021 and it's 2016, it's my go to cookie scoop. I use it at least once a week and it's still going strong. I highly recommend.

For me these scoops have been one of the best investments for my baking. I use the large scoop when I make regular cupcakes and I love that they all turn out the same, no more this cup has more batter and isn't done while another has less and will burn. I also use the large when I make meatballs in my regular size cupcake pan or anything else I want to use with that pan. The medium scoop is the same. I love how my cookies come out the same size and no one gets burned while another is under cooked. I love the ease of these. After cake decorating for many years I have tendonitis in my right hand and these have been easy on my hand to release. For Christmas I do cookie exchanges and this scoop makes it easy when making tons of cookies because you can scoop, plop them on the cookie sheet and keep right on going. For me it saves a lot of time even when making those cookies you do have to roll in your hand for smooth balls for dipping in chocolate, they are the same size balls of dough and cook evenly. The small scoop I use when I do anything with my mini muffin pan. From brownie bites, to cupcakes to muffins. Again, I love having uniformity in my baking and that everything comes out the same size, bakes the same and looks great. I would recommend investing in these scoops for not only easy cleaning, but how easy they are to use and comfortable too. I did put mine in the dishwasher and they washed up well with no problems. When I wear these out I will definitely be buying more.

I bought this at the recommendation of Sally's Baking Addiction after using so many of her recipes. And I was SO disappointed! I used it for 3 scoops of dough and is became misaligned and wouldn't push it out. I had to keep popping the gears back into place after every other scoop. I tried it for different cookie recipes for about 3 months, thinking maybe different doughs would work better. Nope! I finally got frustrated and just threw the thing away and went back to either using my tablespoon measuring spoon or just scooping it up and hoping for the best. My opinion: don't waste your money. Maybe I just got a dud, but I'm not going to buy another one to find out.

Works good, looks like it will last. Never had one before but seems to work well.

OXO Good Grips as they are called, produces the best cooking/baking tools in the home cooking industry--and lot of us cook daily so for me it is my business. I use various name brand tools and machines in my kitchen and when tool fails whether it is deteriorated from age and use or it just did not stand up to normal use, I go to OXO for a replacement tool. The company simply does not fail. They make cookie scoops in exact sizes, out of sturdy material that is engineered to fit precisely right in an outstanding hand tool. The ergonomics are renowned for their comfort and ease of use with no hand, palm, finger or wrist cramping. There is just smooth functionality with this tool, the sizing of cookies is not sloppy, but always exact--makes it easier to plan for event desert trays, pot lucks, after game parties, etc. The engineering is a bonus as all the moving parts fit together smoothly so nothing gets caught on cleaning devices, like sponges, dish towels, or wire scrubbers. Thank you OXO.

As a kid I loved making cookies with my mum, but on making them as an adult I could never quite get them the right. I decided to buy the Oxo Cookie Scoop so I could get all my cookies a uniformed size, and also so could get them in to the oven fast without the mix losing air from creaming process. I found I was spending a considerable amount of time, rolling, guessing sizes of dough etc, to get the perfect cookie. I bought the medium size scoop; I would recommend this size to someone that just wants one scoop. It's a nice size, slightly larger than average cookies, without being over generous (we as home cooks know how much butter goes into our cookies lol). The design features and build quality is A++, excellent finishing/wielding, large quality very "grippy" handle, quality steel and spring mechanism. This cookie scoop id expect to last at least 15 years, with use a couple of times a week, with occasional use a lifetime. Ok well design/build/quality is one thing but does it work??.....Yes and very well !!, for a start getting it out of the draw... The grippy handles make it easy to grip with flour/butter on hands, then simply but dough in scoop, level off with knife, squeeze the handle, and you have the perfect amount of dough every time, and there in the oven fast !!. Clean up is super easy as I just place in dishwasher and comes out perfect every time (some gadget's id rather wash by hand). Pros: Does an excellent job, good quality, dishwasher safe, reliable brand, built to last. Cons: None....Excellent buy and value. I don't expect to see any rust or quality issues, but if I do I will update review.

We use it for making our Perfect Oatmeal Cookies. Love it. J & A

feels sturdy and does the job

La marca OXO Good Grips se caracteriza por diseñar herramientas para el uso de todos, desde un artrítico, hasta un musculoso. El cookie scoop tiene un mango cómodo y las galletas salen de la misma medida. Olvídate de las veces en las que hacer bolitas de masa de galleta te llevaban un rato.

I ordered one of these scoops and only used it once before my mother came over, saw it and took it home. Needing another right away, I bought three separate scoops in store and hated every one of them. They were too large, too small, or just poorly constructed. This scoop is too small for cupcake batter, but for cookies it's just perfect. The construction is high quality as well, the handle doesn't slip when it gets greasy and the scoop release is flush to the scoop itself, so all the dough comes right out. No more doughy hands! Keeping the cookies uniform helps to ensure even cooking as well. If you're a baker and you don't have a cookie scoop, you're missing out!

Superbe cuillère et matériau solide ayant déjà une cuillère à biscuits dimension plus grande de la même marque je peux confirmer leur résistance dans le temps et leur facilité d’utilisation. Elle peut tout aussi bien être utile pour servir de la glace. Comme tous mécanisme il ne faut pas trop forcer en lui facilitant le travail(éviter les pâtes trop dur)et en évitant de trop forcer dessus d’autant plus que cela ne soit pas trop utile.

resistente, ótima para fazer cookies do mesmo tamanho
