I always use a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop and each cookie dough ball has 2 scoops of cookie dough, meaning that each cookie dough ball is 2 tablespoons in size. In my opinion, this is the perfect-sized cookie! If you don’t have a cookie scoop, you can use an ice cream scooper instead, but you will only need 1 ice cream scoop of cookie dough.  And to make it super easy for you to learn how to scoop the perfect cookie, I created a step-by-step guide on How To Scoop The Perfect Cookie! Check it out for some really helpful tips and tricks.
