I couldn't find my cookie scoop tonight, all the spoons were running in the dishwasher, so I used my easy adjustable measuring spoon. It works awesome! I opened it up to two tablespoons and pushed to release. They all came out so easy and uniform in size. I'm going to share this at shows. How easy to drop the cookies with what you used to measure ingredients with.
 
funny shape?did they seem to be shaped funny?!:(
