Serious question, has anyone else had to pick between a stand mixer and a food processor for a big batch of cookie dough?
I had to make 12 dozen cookies for my kid's school bake sale in Portland. I went with my KitchenAid mixer thinking it would be faster, but the dough got so warm it turned into a greasy mess. I should have used the food processor in short pulses to keep it cold. Anyone have a trick for this?

Oh man, that's the worst. I once tried to double a brownie recipe in my mixer and ended up with chocolate soup.

Been there, done that, got the t-shirt (and the ruined dessert). Tried to triple a cookie recipe last Christmas because I was feeling ambitious. The dough overflowed the bowl and my mixer started making this sad groaning noise. Ended up with a weird, flat cookie-pancake hybrid that tasted like regret. Baking math is harder than it looks.
