I don't know about you, but I hate having to stop and scrape down my mixing bowl when whipping up a batch of cookies. Well, I just came across a gadget that claims to solve that problem for good. It is called the SideSwipe Spatula Mixer Blade. This paddle attachment to a stand mixer is made with silicone fins lining the outer blade. The fins enable the SideSwipe to reach all parts of the mixing bowl, including the bottom, and the design of it pushes ingredients down. Thus the SideSwipe is able to incorporate all ingredients fully and you no longer have to stop and scrape.
The only downside is that it may not fit your stand mixer, as this is a pretty new product. The SideSwipe attachment currently fits the tilting Kitchen Aid, but not the lift model. However, they plan on expanding their line in the current months. The website also goes into much more detail and even offers a video demonstration of the SideSwipe in action. So start mixing and don't stop!

I found these not long before Christmas and grabbed one for my GF (and by default, myself :) ). I used it last week to make an Ooey Gooey Butter cake and it worked great. It does take just a little more work to get the good stuff and into the bowl, but great other than that.
