        Baking is one of the most delicious hobbies, and one I’ve recently started to take up. Not only does it yield delicious treats and create a mouthwatering aroma that lingers in the kitchen hours after, but it’s also fun to get down and dirty a bit, to work with my hands, and to inevitably end up covering myself and my dog, my sous chef, in flour. The only problem I have with baking is a simple one: lack of self-control. I inevitably end up making too many cookies and therefore eating too many cookies. But thankfully, I recently discovered a tool that helps me keep my sweet tooth under control.

        Souper Cubes Cookie Tray

        Buy at Food52$32

        The Souper Cubes Cookie Tray is like an ice tray for cookie dough. Made of silicone, it has 10 dimples for perfectly portioned cookies. After making a too-large batch of cookie dough, place the dough in there, and pop it into the freezer for later (or the fridge for a little less later). This means always having cookie dough on tap to bake and/or eat raw (Disclaimer: Scouted does not endorse this behavior). Recently, though, I’ve been encountering a ton of recipes that call for me to “set” the dough in the fridge overnight. Before I had this tool, I’d never do this (small fridge = no space). But now, it’s actually possible, thanks to this space-saving tool. With it, I can set some of the dough, and bake some right away for immediate consumption. There’s nothing better, after all, than freshly-baked cookies.

        The brand also makes a soup version you can use to create ice cubes of left over stock out of. I’m not sure why you wouldn’t just use a regular old ice tray for that, but the cookie version in my opinion is a must have. It has taken my cookie baking to the next level, and has surprisingly limited my cookie intake. When I know there are always more cookies stored away in the fridge, suddenly, the temptation to stuff my face with the already baked ones vanishes.
