Dear Sis,
My old Cuisinart stand mixer of 10+ years finally bit the dust! After reading and watching numerous reviews, I decided to go with the Bosch. It offered the best work bowl size and motor wattage of any mixer I could find for home use. I briefly considered an industrial mixer but decided it would be too heavy…lol.
The new mixer arrived last week, but the plastic ring on the base of the stainless steal bowl chipped in shipping and we had to wait another week for the replacement to arrive. It arrived yesterday evening, so the kids were very eager to make cookies today!
We’ve made peanut butter cookies a few times in recent months, making changes each time until we achieved perfection:
