Is it true that aluminum pans are best for baking? If so, what kind do
you recommend for baking cookies, biscuits, etc?

You need pans that are sturdy enough to hold up to use and the size that
will fit in your oven. I like the half-sheet pans that you can get at any
of the club stores (Costco, Sam's, BJ's, ) or in restaurant supply stores.
They generally sell for about $3-5 each. Don't bother with the "insulated"
or "air" pans or anything with a non-stick coating. Also, consider using
parchment. It just about eliminates any clean-up or sticking and you can
remove the baked goods a reuse the pan immediately - thus cutting down on
the number of sheet pans you need to buy and conserving storage space.

And yes, aluminum pan are the best for baking. They are cheap, lightweight,
and heat evenly.
