Kitchen Tools

I love anything kitchen. So if I am near a Williams-Sonoma or Spoon's and Spice, I stop in and just browse.. People love cars, books, or clothes, I love kitchen tools.

With a new sugar cookie and donut recipe, I learned a couple of new tricks of getting them the perfect thickness.
So I put my honey to work in the wood shop and saved me some dough. :)

I had the standard size rolling pin, but I saw Alton Brown rolling out his donut dough with a little bit of a longer one. The reason is so that he could roll it along these handy little sticks. They are cut at 3/4 of an inch thick so that your dough will roll out to that measurement.
Now with sugar cookie dough, you don't want it that thick, so I have a set that is 1/4 of an inch. The perfect sugar cookie.



If you don't have a wood shop or a honey in a wood shop, I did find some plastic rings and a long rolling pin at Williams-Sonoma that do the same thing. Also the sticks can be found at any craft store in different thickness's.

enjoy!
