A method for providing individually baked products comprising the steps of providing an uncooked dough sheet or block which has separable portions of predefined shape, separating one or more portions from the sheet or block and then baking the portions to obtain individually baked products. The shapes of the portions are defined by grooves, score lines, or combinations thereof and the portions are separated from the sheet by breaking then along the grooves, or score lines. The grooves or score lines may be intersecting or non-intersecting and substantially straight to define polygonal shaped portions, or at least partially arcuate to define the shape of an object having non-linear features, such as a cartoon character.

Method for making cookies

A ready-for-use refrigerated sweet dough that is prepared from flour, sugar, a leavening agent and fat. The dough has a surface that includes grooves, score lines, or combinations thereof which define pieces of the dough to be broken off and baked into individual bakery products such as cookies, muffins, brownies, or other pastries. The grooves, score lines, or combinations thereof each have a depth of about 3% to about 95% of the thickness of the dough. The dough is in the form of a sheet or a parallelepipedal, cylinder, prismatic block or polygon having a thickness of from about 0.5 to 5 cm.

Ready-to-brake refrigerated sweet dough

A ready-for-use cookie dough which can be preserved in the refrigerator and which is prepared from flour, sugar, baking powder and fat, containing between about 0.3 and 1.5% baking powder and provided in a precut form or in a form with grooves. Preferably, the dough is provided with score lines or grooves that define equally sized portions that can be broken off or pulled apart and then baked to form individual cookies. In addition, the block can be formed of different dough layers or strips, or each portion can be provided with a different color, stamping, decoration or filling. If desired, the portions can be of different configurations or shapes.

Cookie dough

A ready-for-use refrigerated cookie dough and which is prepared from flour, sugar, baking powder and fat, containing from about 0.1% to about 1.5% baking powder and provided in a form that includes grooves, score lines, or a combination thereof, to facilitate separation of the dough into pieces that can be baked into individual cookies.
