I am new to using the Bosch and have some questions about making cookie dough.

Do you have to use metal bowl or plastic bowl for cookies?

What attachment should you use- the cookie paddles (if so - which ones?) or dough hook (don't you need to cream shortening+sugar first?)

Also, what can you use the machine for besides challah and bread doughs and sponge cakes?
What attachments should be used?

Thanks

What is "the big balloon"?

If you use the metal bowl - it looks like the beaters that come with Universal Plus don't fit the bottom-mixing metal bowl (ER1).

What are cookie paddles for?

Amarante, are you using the metal bowl that mixes from the bottom, without the center post?

I use the white bowl with the 2 beaters for cookies cakes mousse and whips. Stainless bowl with dough hook that attaches on bottom for challah and heavy doughs.

Bargainlover, thank you for your response.

What types of dough would you call heavy besides challah/ bread?

Would puff pastry dough be considered soft or heavy?

I would not consider puff pastry dough "heavy"

the metal is for challa/bread

Beaters are for cakes and whips

Cookie paddle in the white bowl for cookies say of about 4 cups flour. But, I cream the shortening & sugar with the regular beaters. When I add the flour I switch to the paddle. Otherwise you'll break your beaters!

Has anyone used "cookie beaters" rather than cookie paddles? The metal parts on them are kind of grouped 3 on each side rather than spread evenly.
